Burning down the house was a major reason I went with a machine specifically designed for the job, but know plenty of roasters do fine without.

Nope the stircrazys don't get hot enough on their own, but....

They are half of the roasting sensation known as the SCTO, bottom is a stir crazy and the top u get a turbo oven. Very popular and easy to build, many here can tell you how.
