Toaster Oven?

[89th]

@George-K A report!

Toast fail. I'm sure it could work if I tried and tuned the process, but in general it took longer than a normal toaster and dried the (rye) bread out. Ugh. Trying to salvage it with Kerrygold butter and some jelly.

If you want good toast, get... a toaster.

OK! I'm convinced!

Thanks for the opinions, and the test this morning, 89th!

I can bring a lot more passion to kitchen stuff than politics.

By the way, my emojis disappeared. What's up with that?

Now @George-K , if you were looking to make croutons, the toaster oven works well! Especially rye bread croutons.

Klaus decided that only cool people get to use emojis.

That's Mik ready to get toasty about Jon's emojis.

@George-K I have been using the ERO-2008SC since mid-2018. Check it out, I think it can do most of the things you say you want your toaster oven to do. Good luck.

Ax, I went searching for that toaster oven and ended up ordering this one.

It makes excellent toast. We are doing a rotisserie chicken in it tonight for dinner.

[Axtremus]

@mark, looks exactly like mine.
Though thus far I have yet to use its rotisserie roasting function.

[mark]

The 6.1 lb whole chicken took less than 2 hours and was tender, juicy and delicious, with a perfectly crisp skin.

We didn't do the rotisserie because the manual advised against anything weighing over 5 lbs. Just baked it in the roasting pan.

[Mik]

Bigass chicken!

[brenda]

We used to be able to get 8 lb chickens from the farmer who raises other grassfed livestock. Now they're 4 lbs or less. I miss those big hens. It must not have been enough profit margin for those last few pounds.
