I have had this roaster for a couple years now and have fantasized about replacing it for almost as long. The high cost of a quality replacement roaster is the only thing keeping this pan in my kitchen. What I really hate about this pan is its flimsy construction. It is much too lightweight for a roasting pan. While it performs "ok" in the oven, it really fails on the stovetop. This pan just cannot stand the direct heat. It promptly warps on the stove and anything being cooked within will almost certainly suffer a horrible fate. For example, if you want to make a nice pan sauce out of the beautiful fond that's left in the bottom of the pan after a long roast in the oven, you can pretty much kiss those gorgeous bits goodbye. This pan heats so unevenly (whether it's over one burner or spanning over two) that part of your contents will be burning while another part will hardly sizzle. Or if you are trying to cook up some veggies or sear a piece of meat on the stove before you park it in the oven, you will experience the same frustration. The pan will warp and bend and you will have little to no control over the heat in the pan. I suppose if you only intend to use this pan in the oven, then it will be adequate, although you will not be jumping up and down by it's performance. And you can bet that it will not be able to withstand high oven temperatures either, or you will get warping and burning similar to what you get on the stove. So if you will only use this pan in a moderate to low oven and never put it over a direct flame, then this pan might work for you. But under any other circumstances, I strongly urge you to look elsewhere. The 50 or so bucks you spend today will not justify the replacement cost later.
Our stainless steel roaster is generously sized to accommodate a full size turkey or roast, measuring in at 16.5 inches long, 12 inches wide and 3 inches deep. The pan's handles are stainless steel, made large enough to grip comfortably with a pot holder and strong enough to let you hoist a full pan with confidence. The pan comes with a stainless steel roasting rack to hold meats above the pan. The rack allows maximum heat circulation and gives room for potatoes and vegetables to cook below, flavored by the savory drippings of the meat. Not just for roasting, use this pan to make lasagna for a crowd or fill it with ice and beverages for an easy-to-carry drink holder for summer parties.
