would it work inside an enclosed roaster? It is made of wood and aluminum

I don't know what they make it out off. I don't see why you couldn't use it in an enclosed roaster so long as you follow the instructions.

I've used it in my oven. There's no problem with it. The legs simply go through the rack. As long as you don't have the rack on the very lowest level, it's just fine.

Yes, but you would need a pan to catch the drippings. It holds a 18# turkey with out a problem. Although it has a non stick surface, I have found that a slight mist of Pam makes the first clean up a bit easier. I have used mine to hold 6 full slabs of ribs, a couple of giant boston butts, large pork picnic and like I said an 18# turkey. All on my grill but I make an aluminum pan out of heavy duty foil but I smoke all of my meat on my Napoleon gas grill. I cooked my turkey in under 3 hours. Much easier than inside at thanksgiving when oven space is a premium. The nicest part is no matter how you use it. The two large handles make it easy to move around.

The Norpro Stainless roaster is very sturdy if use correctly. I would also recommend using a larger drain panwith the Norpro Stainless unit to catch over spill from the meat being baked are roasted. I have purchase one unit for myself and one for a family member. Great unit, easy to clean, and to store.LC

Yes. A whole roaster fits in and that is the same size as a rotisserie chicken.

I would say yes. The darker the bakeware the better but I have used glass. Just make sure you cover it with tin foil or the cover that comes with it. Also, measure your roaster and measure inside of oven (or shelf) to make sure it will fit. I use a smaller roaster pan that happens to be granite wear but I think you can use any kind as long as it fits on the shelf. However, you can remove the shelf and set the pan inside so measure that. I have baked chicken, brownies, lasagna, casseroles, apple pie and strawberry pies, banana bread, meatloaf, meatballs. The possibilities are endless. You will love it after you use it several times and experiment with times. Good luck.

Yes. I recommend using a light weight dutch oven that will fit within the interior dimensions.

Yes, this should work. This is my second 6qt. roaster. Wouldn't be without it

I use this to roast coffee, it gets very hot and is the size of a range top burner. I think it would be fine. I have it quiet a while and I'm very happy with it.

You should also be able to use this on an induction cook top or the individual burners that are for sale now, since it is all steel... and as long as the bottom is flat. The negative reviews and chipping concern me. MADE IN AMERICA should say quality. I do have a 15 inch roaster that I love and have had no problems with.

I cooked a 2.5 lb roast however, it could accommodate a much larger roast. You just need to be careful the roast does not touch the burner elements in the back of the unit.

A brief explanation: I have never tried it. Not sure I ever would. Perhaps, only to de-glaze it? Gas better than electric. Low to medium heats only. My experience tells me that it would probably warp, slightly. It is a relatively heavy gauge the stainless steel, ga.-unknown. Best roaster that I have ever had without spending huge amounts of money.

It depends on the specific size of the roast. Yes, the unit can handle three pounds of food but the roast has to have roughly the same aspect ratio as the oven. If, for example, the roast is mostly circular in aspect ratio (like a ham), it either will not allow circulation around its edges or it'll stick above the water level or both. There is no question that a mostly 'tubular' shaped 3 lb roast will work.

No, this meant to be used inside the canner to be able to fit a second row of jars. The temperature needed to make the canner come up to proper steam wouldn't be safe, because the rack does not fully touch the burner. There is a definite space between the rack and burner. I would suggest a coil electric burner, or a propane gas burner. A glass top or induction burner wouldn't be safe enough.

I would be concerned about it fitting inside. I'd guess there's 5'' inside clearance. The legs would probably hold but it's not a heavy duty grate.

Yes, but that pan is quite a bit larger than the rack, which is 11" x 7". As far as the 5" depth, that would depend upon how large the roast is, and how the sides of the rack are adjusted.
