USE/CARE AND RECIPE GUIDE
HEATWELL and BODY. The sides of the 18-Qt. Roaster

Introduction
Get To Know Your 18-Qt. NESCO Roaster Oven
Now you are ready to discover more ways to make meals that
are both healthful and delicious. And you are now ready to
experience first-hand the convenience and versatility of this
compact portable electric cooking appliance.
COVER. Heavy gauge high-profile aluminum Cover is
designed to control heat and moisture efficiently. Two vent-
holes are provided to allow just the right amount of moisture
to escape during cooking. Hinged cover can be positioned into
the slot on the back edge of the Cookwell for convenient
hands-free placement while stirring or serving. During the
cooking process, steam will accumulate inside the cookwell.
Always stand to the side when removing the lid, and tilt cover
away to divert escaping steam.
AUTOMATIC TEMPERATURE CONTROL. Regulates
cooking temperature to maintain the dial setting in the
Roaster interior.
Take a few minutes to read through this Guide. You’ll find out
how to better use the Roaster Oven. And you’ll find a selection
of healthful and fun recipes – all carefully tried and tested for
your enjoyment.
SIGNAL LIGHT. The glow of the light indicates the Roaster
is heating. When the desired temperature is reached, signal
light goes out. It goes off and on during cooking indicating
that the temperature is automatically maintained.
The NESCO Roaster Ovens have a long tradition in family
home cooking, beginning the the 1930s. Yet, very few cooking
appliances can demonstrate that they are as up-to-date and
useful today as they were in the past. NESCO Roaster Ovens
have truly kept pace with cooking styles, preferences,
occasions and family sizes.
RACK. A chrome-plated steel or non-stick Rack provides
cooking flexibility. The Rack fits into the Cookwell and has
convenient lift-out handles.
TEMPERATURE GUIDE. The conveniently placed guide
gives recommended temperatures for commonly roasted foods.
COOKWELL. Cookwell has a full 18-Quart capacity. The
revolutionary QuanTanium™ surface is the first non-stick
reinforced with space age titanium. QuanTanium provides
maximum resistance to wear and abrasion, and is safe to use
with all metal utensils. Cookwell is removable for easy clean-
up in the dishwasher or sink, or for food storage in the
refrigerator.
In a short time, you will see the many ways to use your
18-Qt. Roaster Oven. Its portability makes it a movable main
cooking appliance at some times, and a valued
supplementary appliance at other times. Use it at home on
your countertop in your kitchen (no more kitchen heat!)...or
in a covered patio, basement or garage...or away from home
in a cabin. Whenever you use your Roaster Oven, you can
prepare a wide range of favorite foods in different ways: baked,
slow cooked, roasted, steamed or poached. And serve your
foods buffet-style or at table-side, right in the Roaster Oven.
Moist and good tasting foods are yours because of NESCO’s
special CIRCLE OF HEAT® construction. You will taste the
difference the very first time you use the Roaster Oven.

How To Use And Care For
To Operate Your Roaster Oven
Care And Cleaning
Your 18-Qt. NESCO Roaster Oven
BEFORE USING FOR THE FIRST TIME
1. Place the Cookwell into the Heatwell. Always use the
Cookwell for food. NEVER PLACE FOOD OR
WATER DIRECTLY IN THE HEATWELL.
2. Preheating is recommended. To preheat, place the
Cookwell into the Heatwell and cover. Be sure the
temperature control is turned to the lowest setting, and
plug the cord into the 120 volt AC outlet. Set the
temperature control to desired temperature. Preheat 20
minutes or until red signal light goes off. Carefully, using
hot pads, add food to the Cookwell.
1. After the NESCO Roaster Oven has cooled, remove Cover,
Rack (if used) and Cookwell. Wash Rack and
Cookwell in warm sudsy water or place in the
dishwasher. CAUTION: Do not put Cover in the
dishwasher.
2. Cooked-on food may be removed by using a non-abrasive
cleaning pad and a non-abrasive cleanser, such as Soft
Scrub® or Bon Ami®. Do not use abrasive cleansers or
steel wool as the finish may scratch. HINT: To easily
remove baked-on food residue, place Cookwell in
Heatwell; then fill Cookwell with hot water. Cover and
heat at 350°F for 30 minutes. Turn off and allow to cool
completely. Wash Cookwell as directed above.
1. Unpack your NESCO Roaster Oven completely. Remove
the Cookwell and remove all packing materials and
information labels. Place the Roaster Oven in a
well-ventilated area on a heat resistant surface.
Set the temperature control dial to its minimum setting.
Plug the cord into a 120 volt AC outlet, set the control
dial to its maximum setting 450°F. Operate the Roaster
Oven empty (without the Cookwell and Cover) for about
60 minutes, or until any odor or smoke disappears. Some
smoke and odor is a normal part of “curing” the heating
element, and will not occur while cooking. When curing
is completed, turn the temperature control to its lowest
setting, unplug the unit, and allow it to cool.
3. The Rack may be used for baking or fat-free roasting.
Other foods, such as meats, soups and stews, are prepared
without the Rack.
4. Replace the Cover. Always cook with the Cover in place.
5. If the Roaster Oven has not been preheated, turn the
temperature control to Off. Plug the cord into a 120 volt
AC outlet. Set the temperature control to the desired
temperature. Fill the Cookwell with food as desired.
6. Cook the food for the desired amount of time. When
finished, turn the temperature control to lowest setting
and unplug the cord from the 120 volt AC outlet. Allow
the Roaster Oven to cool, and clean as recommended .
NOTE: COOKWELL, COVER AND ACCUMULATED
STEAM WILL BE HOT. USE CAUTION, AND HOT
PADS, TO LIFT COVER OR REMOVE COOKWELL
FROM HEATWELL.
3. NEVER IMMERSE THE ROASTER OVEN IN
WATER. To clean, wipe outside of Roaster Oven with a
damp cloth and dry. Do not use abrasive cleansers on
exterior surface.
2. Wash the Cover, Cookwell and Rack in warm, sudsy water.
Rinse and dry. See “Care and Cleaning” section for
complete cleaning instructions.
4. The revolutionary QuanTanium™ surface is the first non-
stick reinforced with space age titanium. QuanTanium
provides maximum resistance to wear and abrasion, and
is safe to use with all metal utensils. It will stay attractive,
not stain and provide easy cleaning and years of use.
However, it will chip if subjected to sharp blows or is
mistreated. Water spots or mineral deposits
(characterized by a white film on surface) may be
removed with household vinegar or non-abrasive
cleanser. Helpful Hints
The Roaster Oven Cookwell is easily removed after cooking for clean up.
Just wash it in warm sudsy water or place in the dishwasher.

BAKE
STEAM
Helpful Hints
ROASTER OVEN SHOULD ALWAYS
BE PREHEATED FOR 20 MINUTES.
• Use the baking rack to place casserole dishes and baking
pans on during cooking time. This will allow for more
even baking.
• No fat is used when steaming, so it’s an easy way to cook
tasty and nutritious low calorie foods.
• Two loaf pans will fit into the Cookwell. A meat and a
vegetable, or two loaves of bread, may be baked at the
same time.
• Cover the baking Rack with aluminum foil and use as a
baking sheet.
• Most 1 & 2 Qt. casserole dishes, 9-inch pie plates, and most
9x13 baking pans will fit into the Cookwell. Place dish on
baking rack for more even baking.
• Three 1-1/2 Qt. pans fit into the Cookwell. Ideal for
preparing meat, vegetables and potatoes at the same time.
When baking bread, either one or two loaf pans are
recommended.
ROAST
SLOW COOK
• Roasting meat in your NESCO Roaster Oven keeps it moist
and tender. For additional browning, you can add 1/2 Tsp.
browning sauce to oil or margarine and brush over skin
before roasting.
• When slow cooking, heat is very gradual. This allows a very
slow simmer, which is aided by keeping the Cover on; no
stirring is necessary.
• To convert a standard recipe to slow cooking: for each
30 minutes required in a standard recipe, slow cook about
1-1/2 hours at 200°F to 250°F.
• When slow cooking meats and poultry, it is not necessary to
use the Rack. The low temperature prevents the meat from
sticking to the bottom of the Cookwell.
• Simmering less tender cuts of meat will make them very
tender. Adding a gravy or sauce will make them extra
flavorful.
• To sear meat, Preheat Roaster Oven at 450°F. Add
margarine, Cover, then sear meat for 10 to 15 minutes per
side until lightly browned. Stir ground meat once. Time will
vary depending on the quantity of meat.
• Alternative browning method for self-basting turkeys: Follow
recipe directions with these exceptions: Preheat NESCO
Roaster Oven and set temperature at 400°F. Roast turkey at
400°F for the first hour. Reduce heat to 350°F using time in
recipe, 13 to 18 minutes per pound. During the last hour of
roasting, remove all juice from Cookwell and return
temperature to 400°F.
• Remember, little moisture escapes during slow cooking, so
add additional liquid sparingly.
• Convenience foods can be baked in the Roaster Oven.
Follow package directions.
The Automatic
Temperature Control
provides a wide range
of temperature settings
which allow you to slow
cook, cook, roast, bake,
steam – as well as sear
and brown foods.
COOK
• Cut-up meats and vegetables should be of uniform size
pieces.
• Remember, little moisture escapes during slow cooking so
add additional liquid sparingly.
