Gibson Home 64207.02 Steel Top Roast 16-Inch Oval Roaster Pan with Lid and Rack, Stainless Steel

it is bigger than I expected and only goes in my (brand new) oven diagonally. I bought specifically because it has a vented lid which helps to 'roast' rather than 'steam' the meat and prevents splashes all over the oven. It does feel a bit flimsy, but I doubt it's going to fall apart, and it is easily going to take the Christmas turkey, leg of pork, or whatever, and I am well pleased. I am well pleased and think it is excellent value for money. shame they do not do one smaller.

I like the size of it. I can now make big roasts with lots of vegetables in one roaster. Before, I needed to take two smaller ones to be able to do what I can with this one. I have not yet tried, but I would think you could cook a big turkey in it.

Due to the low price I had no expectations of this roaster. I discovered that the granite ware pan I have used for 25 years had a perforation and fortunately discovered this before today - Thanksgiving. I ordered this pan in a pinch and got it quickly. This is a very nice pan, especially for the price. Yes, the stainless steel is thin, and the bottom will flex when it is empty, but this pan is much better than I could have imagined. I read the reviews, and decided to give this pan a chance. I am pleasantly surprised. The stainless steel isn't heavy, but I like that. I heavy pan with an heavy turkey would be much harder to manage in and out of the oven. I prefer a lighter pan. The lid fits well and is vented, which is something you don't find with many higher priced roasters. I bought this pan in a pinch, but find that it is a keeper. This pan also looks good enough to go from oven to table for good looking presentation. The handles are also large enough to accommodate oven mitts, so that is great. I cooked an 18.5 pound turkey in this. I fold the wings under the bird, so this method takes up more pan width. If I made a larger turkey, it would fit in this pan, but I would need to clip the wing ends instead of folding them under in order to gain more room in the pan. It cleaned easily and I would recommend this pan, especially for the price and free prime shipping. A roaster doesn't need to be really heavy to be good, and for me lighter is much better. I use my roasting pans for everything, beef tenderloin, turkey, ham, pork loin, so my roaster gets a work out. This pan and lid have a mirror finish so a no scratch cleaning sponge or brush will be needed to maintain the finish. If eventually something sticks, I will use oven cleaner to preserve the shine. I have alot of stainless steel and don't want it to get scratched, so I don't use abrasive cleaners of tools on the surfaces. Since I was pleased with this purchase, I ordered one for my son yesterday.

Me gusto el acabado, y lo útil qué espera hornear

I read reviews regarding the product thickness. Obviously some reviewers were expecting "champagne on a beer budget". Suffice it to say that this roaster is quite sufficient to handle any edible you can conceivably roast in it. I needed a roaster to fill a gap, and this one is perfect for what I needed. I can use it for a small to medium roast, and even a large roast or turkey, if I so desire. (I'll use my large roaster for the large items) My first attempt was a 5.5 pound 1/2 pork shoulder, and it turned out very nicely. Next was a 4 pound Boston butt portion, and it turned out nicely, as well. Clean-up was relatively simple. I spray the rack with cooking oil, and line the bottom with aluminum foil, regardless of the roaster I'm using. This roaster is not 'non-stick', but proper preparation will make clean-up easier. The roaster is attractive, and will certainly make a nice presentation. I will be ordering a couple more, to give as gifts.
