Norpro Nonstick Vertical Roaster Vertical Roaster – Alexander Cordova – Rochester, NY
It’s cheap and ideal for roasting chickens, or other small game birds. It’s all ‘non-stick’ and does the job. In case the bird has a lot of fat, you should place the roaster with it’s small collection pan inside a bigger container – just in case it overflows.
Nonstick Vertical Raoster – N. Spears – Durham, NC USA
Works well. Simple, intuitive minor assembly. The nonstick feature is a real timesaver and preserves against rust (which is why I had to purchase a new one). Would be nicer if the ‘pot’ were larger, however overall a good bang for my buck.
The Spano vertical poltury racks say they’re non-stick, but the coating wears off VERY fast and is very hard to clean. This rack is “as-advertised” and really does clean up easily. Also, since it disassembles, it is much easier to store. Here is a case of less-is-more! Norpro: 269 By roasting your chicken or duck vertically you allow the fat to drip into the non-stick tray and away from the meat. You’ll get an evenly browned bird that is healthier, with lower fat and cholesterol. Norpro’s vertical poultry roaster is designed to allow fats to drip off your chicken or other poultry as it cooks, leaving only juicy, flavorful, lower-fat meat. The deep drip tray collects the fat so that it doesn’t coat your oven, although putting a baking sheet under the roaster is advisable for larger birds. The vertical roaster promotes even cooking, since all sides are exposed to the oven’s heat. This configuration also makes the skin exceptionally crispy, a feature which will be lost on those who discard the skin for health reasons. The drip tray and rack are both coated with a nonstick surface, so cleanup is simplified–and they’re dishwasher-safe. –Julija Gelazis Norpro Nonstick Vertical Roaster
