Griswold #9 Oval Roaster Dutch Oven

I picked this up at a local estate sale a few weeks ago. It's a #9 Oval Roaster in excellent condition. I am already thinking how good a nice Turkey will taste in it  :wink:

Nice!

Yes it is. I had never seen one in person and was a bit shocked at the size.

With a turkey in that thing you will need sous chefs to insert and remove it from the oven.  One thing is for sure: you won't be basting it every half hour.

That's not a problem for me. But I sure see how it would be for others not strong enough to lift it. I am glad I used to work out a lot when I was younger  :vrolijk_26:
