NESCO Electric Skillet Makes a Perfect Casserole Dish

Historically, casseroles are prepared, placed in a dish, and then put in a conventional oven to finish cooking. This could sometimes take more than an hour and multiple dishes.

NESCO's 12-inch Electric Skillet, at 4-inches deep, allows you to cook, fry, bake, and serve all from the same device. This can be accomplished without ever turning on your oven.

The Electric Skillet has a premium non-stick interior so everything you cook releases easily and cleans quickly, and the adjustable temperature allows you the flexibility to prepare a variety of foods at home or on the go.
