The Best Roasting Rack
January 24, 2026
A stainless steel roasting pan with a non-stick rack. The rack elevates meat above the pan so heat circulates evenly and fat drips away.
The pan is 18/10 stainless steel with riveted handles. Oven safe up to 600°F (rack up to 375°F).
Usage
Place the rack in the pan and put meat on top. For poultry, tuck wings and tie legs for even cooking.
Cleaning
Both pan and rack are dishwasher safe. For stuck-on drippings, soak in hot soapy water before washing.
