Oh man!! I had one for about 30 years! After all the kids left home, I started downsizing and that was one of the things that went away….I just didn’t need to cook large quantities of food on a daily basis.

Now I wish I’d kept it, even though I have no place to store it 🤣
 
Not sure which size that is, it came in two sizes- to me one was for chicken size food and the other turkey size food.

I still have mine, the turkey size one, but don't use it much since I started buying the rectangular foil pans to line the roasting pans. It was too awkward to fit a rectangle into an oval.
 
I still have two of those big black roasters, one large enough for a turkey and a smaller one perfect for a roast. I haven't used either in several years, and probably won't use them again since my big family dinner days are over.
 
I never owned one but my mother and grandmother had them in a couple of different sizes.

The one that my mother had was slightly different than the one pictured.

With hers you could use both the top and the bottom as large baking pans.

They came in handy over the years for making large amounts of scalloped potatoes, baked beans, Spanish rice, etc…
 
Yes, I had the large and small pans. I believe in was a dark navy blue. When I quit roasting food, they were gone; I don’t know when or where.

I do have a Corning Ware roasting pan with ridges on the bottom that would be fine for a roast of beef or small chicken. I don’t make either.
