Roasting pans
« on: August 02, 2012, 12:41:59 pm »
I have purchased a few non stick roasting pans lately, and the Teflon comes off after a short time, (and I really don't do that much roasting) so I have decided I need to buy a better quality one. I am looking for your advice as to what you use and how you find their performance.

I'm interested in this as well, I have had the same problem. I use a roasting rack in my roasting dish, and also line the base with baking paper when roasting veggies etc so they don't stick.

I have had my scanpan roasting pan for 6-7 years now and still in perfect condition.  I use it for roasts and veggies and don't use baking paper. They retain the heat more than the Teflon pans so I reduce the temp of the oven slightly after 15 minutes cooking. You can also heat it on the hotplate first if you want to.

I bought a scanpan roasting dish in the sales. Obviously I have only had it a few months but love it.

I have also had my Scanpan roasting pan for years. It still looks like new & I use it for roasts and baking slices etc. It is so easy to clean and nothing ever sticks. It is well worth what it cost me. At the time I made my purchase online as it was better value than the Myer half price sale. My Mum has two of these the bigger and smaller one and she is also thrilled to bits with them.

I think maybe it's time I brought myself a good quality roasting pan like the scan pan. Might have to look into it and wait for a good sale.

Yes Dede, looks like I'll be checking out the scanpan too.  I already have a scanpan frying pan which is great.

My DH bought me a scanpan roasting tray for my birthday a couple of years back but I don't use it very often because it's a pain in the you know what to clean

How do you guys keep them clean and looking like new ?

PP, line your pan with 2 pieces of grease proof paper to line base & sides, until you get a new one.
Or roast your meat in an oven bag.

Ummm - roasting pans... I own 3 and have never use them... :-[ - 1 is a scanpan one too. I alway use oven bags just on the oven tray or in the slow cooker. For veg I do them on baking paper on the oven tray.  :)

Another thumbs up for the Scanpan! I've had mine for a few years and it is still as good as new. I don't put it in the dishwasher or use high heat when it's on the stove....I learned from my Scanpan frypan which is not in the greatest condition from putting it in the dishwasher and using high heat almost all the time! I certainly would never pay full price for one though because you can nearly be guaranteed you'll be able to find them at 40-50% off at least twice a year!

We were given a scan pan non stick one for our wedding. The non stick started to bubble and the other day I took it to the official repair/replacement place and the lady just replaced it no questions asked! How's that for service!
