No stove? No problem! The modern kitchen no longer depends on bulky appliances to create unforgettable holiday meals. With a powerful convection oven, you can roast, bake, and crisp every dish on your Thanksgiving menu—right from your countertop. In this guide, we’ll show you how to pull off a complete Thanksgiving feast using today’s smartest convection ovens, including the Emeril Lagasse Dual Zone 360, Cuisinart TOA-70NAS Air Fryer Toaster Oven, and NutriChef Vertical Countertop Oven.
Each of these ovens combines fast, even heating with generous capacity, letting you prepare turkey, sides, and desserts—all without ever touching a traditional stove.
The Secret Power of Convection Cooking
Convection ovens circulate hot air with a fan, cooking food up to 30–60 percent faster than a standard oven. This means you get evenly browned turkey skin, perfectly baked pies, and roasted vegetables that stay tender inside but crisp outside.
They’re also more energy-efficient and compact—ideal for apartments, RVs, or any kitchen short on space.
