Amazon.com Review
To roast is to surround food with dry heat. Covering a turkey or joint of meat steams or braises rather than roasts, and placing it into a pan without a rack causes the lower part to boil in juices--that's why a rack is essential for proper roasting. This 12-by-9-inch rack ensures a holiday turkey, duck, chicken, or rib roast will emerge from the oven evenly browned and fill the kitchen with an irresistible aroma. It's nonstick, so poultry skin shouldn't tear when the bird is lifted to a carving platter. If necessary, scour this rack with a nonabrasive cleanser and a nylon or plastic scrubber; hand wash with mild detergent to preserve the nonstick surface. --Fred Brack
Product Description
Who wants their roast drowning in grease? Instead elevate the meat, and benefit both flavor and fat content.

Great Roasting Rack, but Gentle Hand Washing is a Must!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Calphalon Roasting Rack (Kitchen)
Calphalon manufactures excellent pots, pans, bakeware, and accessories. Unfortunately, this Calphalon small/medium roasting rack is one of the few items that does not live up to the Calphalon reputation for durability. After its second use, some of the nonstick coating came off the rack, which has caused it to be hard-to-clean and look unsightly. (This is my second Calphalon roasting rack--the same thing happened with the first one, too.) However, this rack is very sturdy, will hold a small- to medium-sized turkey in a 14-inch or 16-inch roaster, and the wide handles make it easy to lift out of the roasting pan. So I continue to use mine, with nonstick cooking spray. Even so, some of the poultry and game skins do stick to the rack a bit. Therefore, whoever gets the clean-up task must take extra care to use non-abrasive scrubbers and cleaners to protect the finish of this rack.

Great to use, hard to clean,

This review is from: Calphalon Roasting Rack (Kitchen)
A sturdier, better designed rack would be hard to find. It sits comfortably in the roaster, offers large handles for ease in lifting even the heaviest roasts, and is non-stick! Unfortunately once it's out of its element, it's unwieldy. Cooking meat spatters, so almost every inch of this rack is covered with grease. The metal can scratch your sink. This isn't fun. My best advice is to find someplace where you can let it soak in hot, soapy water for a few minutes. Then use a nylon pad, and keep turning the rack to make sure you've got all the surfaces clean. It's easy to miss something when you're dealing with this sort of design. Let's face it, at this price, this rack is a bargain any way you look at it. Just expect to spend a little extra time and effort on the cleaning.

Essential,
By Justin (Los Angeles, CA United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Calphalon Roasting Rack (Kitchen)
If you don't want to spring for a roasting pan, no problem - the disposables do just as well. There is no question, however, that your bird needs a lift out of its own juices. There is no better way than with this rack. Large, sturdy and truly non stick, this rack will ensure even cooking by exposing all sides equally.When you find a high quality kitchen essential at such a low price, I can see no reason to let it go. Buy it. Now.
