Scroll down to roasters.

Absolutely not. This is an oven, not a steam table, and water in the main roaster actually interferes with heat transfer. Water in the roaster cooking pan (the inside pan) actually steams the turkey, not a yummy solution.

Not just no but absolutely no. This is an oven, not a steam table, and water between the roaster and the roaster cook pan actually interferes with the heat transfer, as well as building dangerous steam.

Rival akes several 18 quart roasters and not all of them take the buffet server. You can check about yours and order direct on line at the Rival website:

I never tried it with mine, bit the lower part is waterproof and the same material as the pan, so I would say you probably could, however, since they heat from the sides try to make sure the turkey isn't touching the sides directly or it may burn.

We need a handle on top for a 16qt rival roaster oven. can you tellme whee I can get one thank You

For the answer to your question, follow this link to the owner's manual. It explains how to use the buffet server among other things.

Yes. This roaster is a dial-type temperature control. For more information on it, you can follow this link to view the owner's manual in case you don't have it by chance:

I LOVE these roasters!!! And now you've made me hungry for turkey. Yum!!! ;)

You shouldn't have a problem cooking your big bird in that roaster. You may have a little trouble getting it ALL to fit in at first, but of course, the turkey will shrink a bit as it cooks and it'll all fall into place. When you're stuffing Tom (the bird...Not the guy) into the roaster, you may have to coerce the cover to fully close over the top, but it shouldn't be too much of an issue. I've cooked even larger birds in my Rival 18qt without any issues, other than some that I mentioned above.

I hope this helps and have a very Happy Thanksgiving! :)

Home Depot, and even Radio Shack both sell rubber stick-on 'feet"

No, do not put water near the electric element. Only inside the roasting pan. If you need further help, I’m available over the phone at https://www.6ya.com/expert/craig_3fa289bf857b1a3c

There is a product called Power Dissolver by Dawn. It sprays on and wipes off and works great. I have gotten it at Wal-Mart, not available at all stores.

Hello there:
if this has the steamer capability than the water is used to steam the food without touching it i have one and i have to do the same thing reason being is to let the water sit in the bottom and not actually touch the food ok?
i think the food comes out a lot more tender it takes longer to cook but well worth the wait.
best regards michael

Try Googling " user manual for rival #174 18qt ss roaster" You may need to go to the Rival web site and request user manual. Also, you may need the serrial #.

You could heat it on low power in the microwave at about 50% power for about 10 minutes, let it sit for a few minutes, check the temp around the bone, and do it again for another 2 minutes at a time until it gets to whatever temp you prefer. If you do use the roaster, put a cup of water in the pan, cover the ham, and heat at about 300 for about 30 minutes. If you want a little variety, instead of water you could pour a cup of Coke or pineapple juice over the ham, then cover and heat as noted above.
