Glazed Terracotta Roaster

Using this lets me make roast dinners just like my mum! It is really easy to use and stops the need for basting and slathering it in butter like I used to. I have quite a small oven and it takes up most of the space in there, but there was just about enough room for a tray of roast potatoes. My only confusion is that on the packagins it says both "hand wash only" and dishwasher safe?! Sticking with handwashing it for now to be safe!

I bought one of these to cook chickens for my dogs - I have a dog with a special low fat diet. I put the chicken in the roaster with some water and cook overnight in the slow oven of my AGA. In the morning there is loads of stock around a beautifully cooked chicken that just falls off the bone, making it really easy for me to bone it.

After a false start with a faulty one, with which Lakelands customer service was amazing, I used this a couple of evenings ago. PERFECT! THe most moist chicken we have ever experienced. I do not understand the other reviews saying it is too small, I got the largest chicken the supermarket had into it which fed 6 people along with some root veg around it. If they made it much bigger it would not fit into many domestic ovens. This is my new favourite way of cooking a chicken and I'll be trying other things out in it soon. A great purchase.

I got this last week after seeing it in the summer, I cooked a large chicken with lemon & it was soo moist & lemony, as stated in the listing the meat just fell off the bone, & the lemon flavour really came through, the meal was enjoyed by the whole family & I can't wait to use it again!! I definately would recommend this pot

this item was bought in the early 1990's and I have used it regularly since, it is a boon for cooking chickens, it keeps them moist and succulent. It is easy to clean and keeps the oven free from splashes.
