Cleaning and Maintenance
Above times are estimates and should be used as a guide to planning your total time
using the defrost setting. Your best indicators at each stage are the temperatures the
turkey reaches at each step using a good meat thermometer.
NOTE:
You might be wondering why it would take a smaller turkey longer than a larger
turkey to roast once it is thawed and you have removed the neck and giblets. Your
roaster defrost and roasting process is based on temperature and turkey size.
•
Larger turkeys
– As the roaster is defrosting, it is also heating the turkey; since it takes
longer to defrost a larger sized turkey; it also heats it longer therefore shortening the
time to roast to completion.
•
Smaller turkeys
– Since defrosting time for a smaller sized turkey is shorter, so is the
heating time of the turkey; therefore, it takes longer to roast to completion.
USING THE KEEP WARM SETTING
Your roaster features a Keep Warm setting. The keep warm setting is convenient for
entertaining until you’re ready to serve. When your food is done cooking, simply switch
the temperature dial to the keep warm setting and the roaster will maintain a low heat
to keep your food warm until you are ready serve.
