Isn't that pretty much what any microwave is? I remember when I bought mine they were sold by what size turkey you could cook in one. I assume some people actually tried it ... once. It gets things hot but it is not "cooking" in any real sense. Corn may be the only thing it really does a good job on and even then it takes some prep. ... Sure thing. I'm wanting something small and low powered that I don't need more than a 2000w inverter to fire it. I gave up on the 12v refrigerator though. Ice and coolers are cheap enough... You have to be careful and figure out if that 700w is input or output. The radiated power may only be half of what the oven draws and they have a pretty big "inrush" spike. A regular breaker has a trip curve that will let it take 250% for a fraction of a second but you do not get that luxury with an inverter. |

I just don't like all the pins in flounder. I guess the only flounder I have had in 4 decades came from the grocery store. It is not that popular here. Most flounder recipes seem to involve baking in a bath of butter and herbs. I like fish I can cook on the grill or griddle. That seems to preserve some of the health benefits. I can honestly say I never tried the microwave but I might give it a shot. You can always give it a dose of tartar sauce or ketchup ;-) |

My mom and dad had an ancient nuke-ro-wave that when you turned it on the kitchen light would dim slightly. Lol! |

It doesn't cost much to experiment. If it works it works. If it doesn't, do different or abandon the idea. |

We tried a roasting hen and it got hot enough to kill the germs but you couldn't really call it "cooked". |

Cooking a whole turkey in a microwave? I can't see much profit in that. But I'll ask how it turned out anyway? Well, it came out very dry with some parts well overcooked and some well undercooked. Not good at all, which is why it was the last one. Hey, it was something new to try. I remember we had to turn the bird and zap it four times - breast up, back up and each side up. Pain in the butt. Live and learn. |
