Hello,

I just bought my wife an electric roaster from Home Depot. It is a
Betty
Crocker
22 qt.

It seems to work fine. The first time she used it the inside of the
lid
rusted.
It is just a small amount of surface rust near some vent holes. I
believe
I can
remove the rust and coat the lid with oil but I am afraid the vent
hole
will
allow the rust to spread and wreak havoc on the external finish.

Has anyone else had this problem? Is this normal?

Does anyone know of a 22 qt or larger Stainless one?

Rusting appliances isn't normal or acceptable. I would take it back
for a refund.




I don't know about the Betty Crocker, but most electric roaster lids are
made of aluminum, not any type of steel. Aluminum doesn't rust.

I just noticed that brand at HD last week. Some roaster come with glass
lids. I'm sure I have seen them at Costco in some form. Many have buffet
inserts available. I recall seeing a nice one at HSN.com at one time, but I
can't find it there now.
