Prepare a hassle-free roast turkey with this Calphalon Contemporary Nonstick roaster, which offers convenience and quality that disposable aluminum pans can't match. Constructed of heavy-gauge hard-anodized aluminum, the pan heats evenly and consistently while in the oven, delivering a golden brown bird on the outside that tastes moist and juicy on the inside. The pan's nonstick surface ensures that the turkey will release cleanly, making it easy to collect juices and bits for gravy. The roaster includes a nonstick rack--which allows heat to circulate underneath the turkey--as well as a bulb baster with an injector tip and two stainless-steel turkey lifters. When it's time to remove the bird from the oven, simply lift the rack out of the roasting pan, then use the lifters to move the turkey to the serving platter. The pan measures 16 by 4 by 13 inches (W x H x D) and is oven-safe to 450 degrees F. It also carries a lifetime warranty against defects. --Rivers Janssen

Customer Reviews
Calphalon Roaster with Rack, Baster, Injector and Lifters
I am very pleased with this roaster. It is everything I thought it would be. I am so glad that Amazon had this for sale. I certainly recommend this to anyone who appreciates good cookware.
Different from what I expected
I have expected a better quality from Calphalon products but this one is really not up to par. The rack and the container just don't seem match one another (size wise). The lifters are ok but you see solder marks and the metal is not well polished. The injector is scary... outside it looks normal but inside of the injector was filled with dark brown/black grease/oil. I tried to clean it but it's almost impossible. I end up throw away the injector and the lifters and only kept the rack and the container. I have seen better quality with cheaper price products. This one just doesn't worth it.
worth ordering easy to clean used thanksgiving
used it on thanksgiving easy to clean cooked the turkey beautifully,would order again . I give it a five star rating
The Jeep Grand Cherokee of Roasting PansMost of my cook- and bakeware is of the hard-anodized Calphalon ilk. That said, I will admit that the Calphalon was not my first choice for a roasting pan. I will also admit that my first choice was the shiny, uptown All-Clad Roti. And I will even be so brazen as to admit that the Roti was my first choice because (a) it is shiny, (b) it is All-Clad, and (c) I am not immune to the whole cache of All-Clad and that whole "kitchen-bling" thing that it has going on. But then I realized that for the cost of the Roti, I could get the Calphalon, a 25 pound turkey, two bags of cranberries, a bottle of wine, and a vintage cookie jar that I have had my eye on.
This pan, like all my stove-tops items, fared amazingly well. The handles are very sturdy. At first, I was a little perturbed by the fact that the handles tilt in (i.e., over the interior of the pan, rather than sticking out), but then I quickly realized that this was handy for many reasons. I thought the pan was easier to lift than other similar-size roasters, even when fully loaded with a 25-pound turkey. Also, I would imagine that for one with an oven less cavernous than mine, having the handles angle in would be more space-economical.
I also liked the shape and depth of the pan. Don't think that a roasting pan of this size is something that you bring out only with the Thanksgiving cornucorpia. You can use it for everyday things like casseroles, broasted potatoes, and cobblers. I have used it quite a bit as the "bain" for a bain-marie.
It also is very easy to clean, even in the aftermath of mammoth turkey.
Drawbacks: I gave it four rather than five stars because while this is a "better" pan, it is arguable that it is not the "best." But there really are not any deal-breaking drawbacks to the pan itself. Especially if one can acquire it at such a low price. I will say, however, that the inward angle of the handles might encroach on the cooking space of the pan. But you would have to be cooking something VERY, almost unimaginably large for this to occur. My biggest peeve was the lifters. I found them pretty much useless, but then again, the lack of efficacy could have been due to the girth of my turkey. Did I mention the 25 pound turkey?
Bonuses: The baster rocks. It really makes your carcass of choice moist and delicious. And you get that whole Jonas Salk feeling.
Recommendations: Get a flat rack to use in addition to the vented rack that comes with it. That way you can roast and broast smaller, flatter items. Also, try not to through out your meat thermometer with the turkey bones. Which doesn't have anything to do specifically with the Calphalon, but in general is just sound advice.
Summary: The All-Clad Roti might be the Cadillac of roasters, but the Calphalon is definitely the Jeep Grand Cherokee -- it works hard, gets the job done, and cleans up nicely.
Cheers!
Great bang for your buck!This item was a great value after free shipping and promotional discounts. I am no gourmet chef, but this worked quite well with my stuffed chicken.
Makes cooking a great turkey sooo much easier!This is a great pan and the accessories are also great. The handles really make it possible to lift the pan without getting burned or having to fear dropping it. And the injector baster is great--it really make the bird taste great!
Excellent product. I'm getting one for my sister, who's a professional cook.
