I had one a few years ago.

It looks familiar. I think my mother had one years ago.

 

[Pink Biz]

Oh, yeah! Got rid of it coz the lid didn't fit tight enuf.

 

[DebraMae]

I have two. One I use for general household chores and the other I still use to cook.

 

[Ronni]

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

I still have one of those but haven't used it in years. I have better results using a large crock pot for that kind of cooking.

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 have the turkey size one that used to belong to my grandmother.

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 still have mine from a bazillion years ago! I used it to roast the Thanksgivi turkey in

I also have it small counterpart that I used to make extra stuffing in

They both still work perfectly fine, which is more than I can say for myself lol lol

 

[Aunt Bea]

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…

Oh that's a blast from the past! We had pale blue ones at the family home. Think my parents inherited them from their parents.
