I love this pan! Both the pan itself and the roasting rack have the same non-stick coating. This isn't Teflon, folks. You can put it under the broiler and it's fine. The package claims it's also dishwasher safe, although I haven't tried this yet. After soaking, even the worst messes clean off easily by hand. The corners are all very smooth, and thus easy to clean.
At 13"x9", this is a small pan. It's great for a pork tenderloin or two, a beef eye of round roast, some cut-up chicken pieces (about 4 thighs), or a couple of quail. The product description suggesting you could use it for "roasting the Thanksgiving turkey" is misleading - maybe it could fit the Thanksgiving boneless turkey breast! Chicago Metallic makes a larger roaster that can fit larger meats. However, for regular family dinners I prefer this smaller size, as it...Read more

Not your mother's broiling pan!,

As noted by another reviewer, pay attention to the dimensions of this roasting pan. It is high quality and has a slick Teflon-like surface. But it is much smaller than any broiling pan you have ever seen before. This is not a typical broiling pan!
Addendum: My wife used this pan to cook a delicious spiral steak in the broiler. She said that it worked just fine and will be great for our small family of just 3 people.

Wanted the Best and Got It,

This review is from: Chicago Metallic Professional Roast 'N Broil Pan with Rack (Kitchen)
I bought this last year when I needed a medium-sized broiler pan. I wanted something high quality that would last for many years, work correctly, and stay clean. This fit the bill.
So far I've used it many times for roast salmon, roasted red peppers, and broiled chicken kabobs. I also use it by filling it water and leaving it in the oven while baking artisan bread. Its durable, heavy-gauge construction held up to the high heat of baking and broiling - no warping, scratching, nor discoloring - still perfect. I liked mine so much I'm about to get one for my toaster oven for smaller meals. Of all the metal baking brands I've tried, Chicago Metallic seems make the best baking products available.
This pan is great for apartment dwellers who don't have grills; meats and vegies get delicious dry heat similar to grilling.
Another valuable aspect is the ridiculously easy cleaning. Whenever you broil/roast, you'll get a lot of run off from the meats or...Read more
