How To Cook A Turkey In A Roaster Oven In A Bag. The classic bag technique is an easy way to cook turkeys and chicken but is also a great tool for cooking lamb shanks and pork or beef roasts. Plus cleanup is a snap.
I ve read that roaster ovens effectively steam the turkey. However if used with care and planning cooking bags can work in some roasting ovens as long as the oven is not too small. To know when the turkey is done cooking measure the temperature through one of the cut slits in the top of the bag.
Preheat for baked goods while many people use their roaster ovens for turkeys and other meat it can do much much more.
It helps to think of the roaster as a pan rather than an oven. The turkey will self baste if you do not lift the lid so you don t have to baste it every 20 minutes like you do in your conventional oven. However if used with care and planning cooking bags can work in some roasting ovens as long as the oven is not too small. The bird will be perfectly moist when done and you can make gravy out of the juice that forms in the bottom of the bag.
