This two-piece barrel roasting hood converts your Legend 5000/5500 into a large convection oven. This oven is ideal for roasting turkey, chicken and large pieces of meat. Together with the Sunshine deep heavy baking dish it is excellent for baking Christmas pudding, Bread & Butter pudding, pie and many more. Using two of the five burners the convection created moves fast hot air past the food. This action gives the barbecue oven the ability to operate at a lower temperature than a standard oven and yet cook food more quickly. Also, the air circulation tends to eliminate "hot spots" and thus cook food more evenly. Made of high quality rolled steel, the hood is antique steel finished and comes complete with a thermometer. Note that the griddle plate should be removed when the barbecue is used as a convection oven.
