Abstract
A roasting oven having a large capacity heating well including a wrap-around heating element for heating the side walls thereof and a top heating element for browning is disclosed. A function control panel featuring a touch-film interface and digital display of cooking modes is provided for the user's convenience. In an alternative embodiment standard electromechanical switches and rheostatic temperature controls provide the functions of the present oven. The heating elements are also fabricated in alternative embodiments to provide single-sided or double-sided configurations for particular applications. The power supply circuit board is isolated from the heating elements in a ventilated compartment on an undersurface of the roasting oven to prevent damage thereto from exposure to the heat source. The present roasting oven is provided with an optional serving set conforming to the shape of the heating well to maintain food in a warmed condition.
