Is this big enough to cook a ~14 pound turkey?

Yes, but watch the temperature. You will probably have to keep turning the burners on and off. Also turn the bird over frequently to reduce the formation of hot spots. I would use a smoker instead but if this is all you have, it'll work if you're careful.

Yes, it can handle a 14-pound turkey. The lid is domed and the inside is spacious. You will need to monitor the temperature of the grill, but certainly feasible. Yummy!

I would be hesitant to try it. I think that large a turkey would be a major challenge if you wanted to smoke it. I think you could only have one burner on to keep the proper temperature, but that large a burn might be so big you would have part of the bird over a hot spot. I would recommend a smoker you can purchase for one third the price of the 3001.

I usually cut the bird in half to grill, either lengthwise or separating the hind half by cutting along the front of the thighs. Cooks MUCH faster and makes it more manageable on a grill or in a smoker. If the grill is too small, cook half and while you're eating cook the other half. This also make seasoning more interesting as you can make half spicy and the other half herb. You'll be surprised how fast it cooks when halved.

I really don't know. I would look up a turkey fryer and compare the pot dimensions. It certainly is heavy enough.

That's about the size of my oven. There's not room for other stuff while the turkey's cooking. Anything else gets cooked the day before or better yet at another guess' house. I do like my turkey straight out of the oven. A cooking bag in a shallow pan is a good idea as mentioned previously but do I prefer this roaster; turkey cooked breast down with a lifting rack under it. Breast down allows the fatty back to baste it. When almost done, I remove it from the roaster to brown the skin. On occasion, it has fallen apart in this process. All the easier to crisppen under broiler. I use this pan because the typical 16-18lb turkey just doesn't fit the next size smaller. That's about the size of my oven.

Yes, I think so. Check the exterior dimension, and then subtract about 2.5 inches from each dimension to arrive at the internal dimension. Not sure how big your turkey is.

if you can fit the bird in the roaster, you can cook it.... I cooked a 19 pounder last Thanksgiving, with the lid on, with no problem

My opinion is a definite yes. I have used mine to cook an 8 lb pork shoulder, a 6 lb whole roasting chicken, LOTS of chili, veggie soup, etc. with both the pork shouDer and roasting chicken, I still had plenty of room left in the pot to allow for veggies and "flipping" room.A very roomy pan that I truly love--so glad I purchased it

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.

I've cooked several turkeys in my Ronco. 12 to 14 lbs fits great. Takes a 2 1/2 to 3 hrs., about 15 min per lb. The outside is always crisp and the inside always moist.moist. I don't wait for Thanksgiving, I cook turkeys whenever I 'm expecting a few extra guests.

Mine is actually 15.5 X 13 and I cooked an 18 pound turkey with room to spare. Same number of wires in my rack as the one pictured. Love, love, love this roasting pan!

I have a 6 quart. A 12 lb. turkey is too big I would suggest a 20 qt roaster.

I would say no. It could possibly hold a 6 to 8 pound turkey breast, but not a full turkey. Just not enough space.

What size are you getting I have the 2 and you can easily fit a big turkey in it, It has 4 grates and you can remove them about 2 feet wide and 3 feet high. Sorry for the long wided answer but the answer is yes. Check the Smokin- It website they will show you what can fit and the price.

I have used it for a 17 pound rib roast and it worked very well. It should easily hold a 30 pound or even somewhat larger turkey.

The 117 is large enough to roast a 16 pound turkey, so the answer is yes but probably an overkill if you will only be roasting 1 chicken. For single chickens I'd recommend the 111 Romertopf, it's smaller and easier to handle. I have both of them and love them.The best chicken and turkey I've ever had.

LOTS! I can get a very large turkey in, no problem. How many quarts? Never measured but it would be at least perhaps 3 gallons ? Just a guess. Its a large roaster.

I have fried a 14 lb turkey with no issues. The heating element will go as high as 450 degrees, once the turkey is lowered, change to 350 degrees, set the timer on the electronic control panel and viola -

The largest I've ever done is 15lbs. I must tell you, we have cooked turkey in the oven since getting the "set it and forget it" and we always go back to the set it and forget it. It REALLY is the best.
