How Long To Cook A Turkey In Oster Roaster Oven. The exact time it takes to cook a turkey depends on how big the turkey is and whether the turkey is stuffed or unstuffed. The roaster oven cooks a turkey in less time than a regular oven but use a meat thermometer to make sure your turkey is thoroughly cooked.
Baste the turkey with melted butter and place without a lid in a conventional oven for the remaining cooking time. To crisp the skin of a turkey cooked in an electric roaster oven remove the turkey from the roaster approximately 45 minutes before the turkey is done. I ve read that roaster ovens effectively steam the turkey.

This is an updated and slightly larger version of the roaster i own. The setting on my roaster has to be at least 25 degrees below the normal turkey roasting temperature as the heat is very intense. Alternatively remove the drippings from your roaster with a turkey baster and bring its heat back up to 400 f for the last 45 to 60 minutes of cooking time. I recommend the 22 quart oster roaster oven with self basting lid which can cook a turkey up to 26 pounds.
