Most roasted chicken recipes call for 425 degrees. Can this really be used only to 350? That seems useless.

I'm not sure why amazon has the statement "oven-safe up to 350 degrees F". If you look at the pan on Rachael Ray's website there is no maximum temperature listed. You may be able to call their customer service and ask if you were really concerned. I've used this pan for twice now, both turkeys were cooked at 425 degrees or maybe even 450, and the pan still looks brand new so I think its perfectly fine at 425 degrees.

I have only used it above the 350 temperature a couple of times. Hasn't seemed to be a problem.

Camping at a lake, i cooked a chicken outside from 2 to 6 pm and the temp reached around 215. This was last summer and it came out perfect. Just make sure it's always facing the sun.

We never cooked anything that needed that high temp. It did consistently reach 375 degrees. The cooker quit working after a few months so we had to get another fryer from a different company. Needless to say, we were not real pleased with the fryer.

I bought this as a gift for my daughter who was always complaining about not having a big enough pan for lasagna. I asked her about temperature and she has only had it up to 350 degrees. Most pans can go up to 450 degrees and I assume as good a pan as this one, it can do the same. As for using it in a broiler, I have no idea. Hope this helps.

I think the space is pretty tight for roasting a whole chicken. The top of the chicken would be too close to the heating elements, causing uneven browning. Even cutting the whole chicken into pieces would overcrowd the roasting pan. The size is more ideal for roasting 2 bone in chicken breast halves or several chicken leg/thigh pieces. Cutting a whole chicken in half would also work better.

The high setting will max out just above 190F. I found this very disappointing for things that you want to simmer, iIt will take about 8 hours to cook a decent sized roast.

I have only used this product at 350 degrees. I love the baking dish but but I don't think new glass dishes are like the ones made in the 50's thru the 80's. I don't think I would use it above 400 degrees. Some other reviewers have noted Pyrex exploding after they take it out of the oven. Always, always, put it on a rack on a table. I never put any dish on a counter, stovetop or other material without using a rack. It helps cool the dish safely. Hope this helps.

I really have no idea since I only use it for beans which are cooked at 250-300 degrees

400 degrees. Through trial & error I found 300-350 is best temp for my stir fry recipes.

Mine holds the temp well, but I've used it only for fried chicken; for that, I heat oil to 400 degrees but turn it down to 350 after all chicken pieces have been placed in the oil. The light will come on only occasionally to maintain the 350-degree temp.

definitely no small whole chicken (the 6 or 8 qt would work better), maybe a 1 to 1.5lb roast.the 4 qt sounds big but it's really not, you can only fill it up to 3/4 capacity and then whatever you are cooking needs liquid or it'll burn.it works for me cause I only cook for myself but if you're cooking for a family get a bigger version

I have used temperatures as high as 425 with no problems. I wouldn't hesitate to use 450 with this pan.

Yes! I cooked in the oven @ 350 degrees. Oven safe up to 400 degrees. I love this pot! My favorite thing to cook in since I got it. Great value for the price.

I don't really know how much heat these will handle. What I can tell you is that after roasting a chicken in a glass baking dish for about an hour at temps between 350 and 450, I can feel heat thru them when I pick up the dish. Not enough that I can't hold it but can definitely feel it. That would make me inclined to say that 600 is wrong!

you would need to ask the company. I cannot think of a recipe needing temps higher than 500 degrees.......at least none I use

Mine is on Fahrenheit not Celsius (maybe you have a different one andwe use it for frying putting it into the oil (not hitting the pan )when the temp hits 350 put the food in to fry ! Hope this helps

I have never tried to cook a whole chicken, so I can't answer to your question. Sorry!
