Anyone with a microwave/convection oven

Posted: Aug 11, 2012

Our over the stove/under the cabinet microwave took a dump this week and we got a new one yesterday, but it is a microwave/convection oven. (Got a really good deal $389.00) When using the convection oven part, I assume you can not use a plastic container to cook in and I also assume you can not use a metal pan, so what do you cook in? I assume that glass/corning ware is okay, but not sure other than that. TIA.

I have a microwave/convection oven. I can use metal if I am cooking with convection only, and it came with a metal rack to use when cooking with convection. I can also cook using both microwave and convection at the same time, and then I believe I have to go by microwave rules as far as cookware. I always check my manual just to make sure, though, because I don't use the convection feature very often, as my regular oven can cook with convection too.

I'm sitting here hot and hungry, 30 miles from the nearest eatery, and I can't bring myself to turn on the un-exhausted propane oven so that it can pour 350 more degrees into my un-air-conditioned house on a day that is still at 7:30 pm 85 degrees and humid. So my mind has wandered to the possibility of a toaster oven for small roasts, baked chicken, pork chops, etc. Has anyone had good luck using a toaster oven (I think now they're almost all convection ovens ...

Well, made a huge Thanksgiving dinner (and I have to admit the oven hadn't been cleaned in a few weeks before that) and cleaned the oven today. Didn't realize how bad it was until the smoke started filling the kitchen and living room. I am surprised smoke detectors didn't go off before I got windows open. I think I should still be using Easy-Off. At least then I did it on a more regular basis. The smoke has quit, but whole house still smells smokey. ...

Does anyone own a toaster oven. Our oven broke and is cheaper to buy a toaster oven than fix ours. The only thing we really cook in the oven is small stuff (roast a chicken, cookies, brownies, melt cheese on our sandwiches and things like that). No huge turkeys or whatever. So I'm looking at toaster ovens, at least a 6 slice toaster. Does anyone have any recommendations or ones to stay away from. We went to target and some were flimsy. We are looking at ...

And I am cooking Thanksgiving dinner for 15 people. I purchased a 21-pound Turkey and a ham and I am freaking out! I have figured out that I can cook the ham in my big crock pot. The turkey, however, I'm not sure about. I am wondering about one of those electric turkey roasters, like an Oster or Hamilton Beach at Wal-Mart, but can one of those handle a 20 pound turkey? I've never used one before, but I've heard the turkey comes out pretty moist with t ...
