Large Egg Roasting Pan Dimensions Please

ShinAmano

So here is the problem...Saturday is my wife's Birthday...we are doing a Thanksgiving themed party.

I am doing a Mad Max Turkey.

I have an All-Clad Roasting pan that does not fit on the egg...

I need to know what dimensions I would need to get a pan that fits.

I plan to do a 25lb-ish Bird...

Please let me know...

My backup plan is to use an aluminum pan like I use for drippings when doing bigger cooks and using the rack from the all-clad roasting pan...but the issue there is I am not sure how to raise the aluminum pan off the plate setter since it is flexible...

use two aluminum pans, one inside the other and lift one with some more rolled up foil or a few small rocks etc. 25 pounders can be tight depending on the shape of the bird, you really want to make sure it fits before the day

i would do what fishlessmen says, about the 2 pans, that bird will be tight. also if you are wanting to go out and buy a big roasting pan, take the measurements of your egg and go buy a pan.

Hmm...I like the idea of two pans...and if I can only grab a 20lb birds that wont be too big of a deal.

Thanks for the suggestion.

you might want to buy one or two extra as with the big bird you will probably need to bend them to get it all to fit
