I picked up an 18qt electric roaster at Costco for cheap (Hamilton Beach) to use for overflow on Thanksgiving, but noticed the instructions say it'll roast up to a 24 lb turkey.
I'd hate to risk a big bird (23lbs) in there without knowing how these things can cope.
I remember the solid Nescos from years back, but this is not of that ilk, I'm afraid.
Does anyone know anything about them? Does it get the turkey skin brown & crispy? It is only $30, so I can easily return it or use it for light duty, but I am curious. I have googled past posts in the group, but got no specific mentions of this HB one.

I've got to go to Costco today or tomorrow so I'd like to hear about this, too. -aem

And bless you for changing the subject line.
While you are there, they had a whole bunch of nifty digital cameras on sale. I got my Chanukah present early.
