microwave/convection oven combo

We recently bought our first Class A. It has a combination microwave/convection oven, which I am completely unfamiliar with. Was hoping to find some info on what would be the best type of cookware to invest in, that would be sturdy enough to travel with. Any hints, tips, opinions, recommendations? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance!
  • If you'll Google the model number of the convection/microwave you have, you should find a manual that will tell you everything you want to know. There are much bigger questions than just which cookware. These are somewhat complicated units and manuals will have specifics about which settings cook what, etc. For more than just zapping something like a beverage, reading this manual is very important.

    And... these microwave/convection ovens are not all the same so, unless you are getting advise from someone experienced with your specific model, the advice still won't do you much good.

    Read the manual first and then go on from there, if need be.
  • My DW does not even want me to try the convection oven feature in our rig, therefore, I can't tell you anything about what works best in a convection oven. I will tell you that every cooking aide, tool and pots/pans, we have in the rig is either from our kitchen or identical to that in the S&B. We have pyrex, aluminum, steel and some silicone tools. If it didn't break while raising two girls and making them cook once a week or so, it won't likely break in the RV.
  • I use some Pyrex dishes and also silicone bakeware in my oven.
