Six generations of Americans have been cooking their Thanksgiving turkeys and traditional hams and roasts in a Granite Ware roaster and for good reason – It cooks faster and more evenly than other roasters. The dark porcelain surface and steel core absorb the oven;s energy and evenly distribute it to the contents. Each roasting pan and it’s handles are designed to accomodate the weight of the ingredients – much safer than foil. And, Granite Ware roasters clean up easily – just fill it with warm water and a little soap and food particles will wipe clean.The construction is porcelain fired at 1500 degrees to the carbon steel core. The result is a roaster than heats rapidly, is easy to clean and has an inert glass surface that won’t discolor or alter the taste of food . The 21.25 x 14x 8.5 Inch covered rectangular roaster holds 22 pounds poultry or 25 pounds roast.Made in the USA
