Roaster for 10-15 people

Large roasters, usually the enamelled steel variety, are easily found in Goodwill and other church or civic-org. managed 2nd hand shops. Doesn't hurt to start there. Puts you in the re-cycling chain and supports a not-for-profit mission. Remember to get a wire rack... |

I like an upright roasted bird, you can purchase an upright roasting rack for big bucks, though a beer can works better. The purpose of a wire rack is to allow heat to crisp the underside of the bird. Those wire racks which you lay the bird on are a chore to clean. Stand the bird upright on a can and throw it away afterwards. You can also slap that bird down on a vegetable rack of carrots, celery, fennel, potatoes, onions, salt pepper and olive oil lightly then eat the vegetable wire rack. |

To your point, you can set a few carrots or celery sticks (potato skins are best!) across the rack <g>, as well, so I haven't had the problem with sticking, though I've seen it plenty of times. You can truss the bird well and shift a bit of flour across the bottom. That helps too. Folks tend to baste with salted butter and that sticks. Salt on anything does not release well. I'm not keen on the can thing. Too much steam in the cavity. Then there is the fact that Rachel Ray does it... |
