Top 10 High Dome Roasters
for September 2023

While some of you might prefer to cook a traditional turkey in a roasting pan, for some of us, a turkey takes too much space in the oven and, more importantly, takes up too much room in our fridge. The Cook Pro All-in-1 Stainless High Dome Roaster and Fish Poacher solves that problem. You can roast a 23-pound turkey in it, which is plenty big enough to feed a Thanksgiving crowd, and it's large enough that you won't need to roast a second one. We cooked a 15-pound turkey and, even so, the roaster still had plenty of capacity. The roasting rack raises the turkey above the water, so it doesn't steam, and the steamer rack also protects the turkey from direct contact with the water. It's a neat design, and it's easy to use. Simply select the rack you want, fill the roaster with water, and place it in the oven. The roaster comes with a useful steaming chart to help you determine how much water to add. The steamer rack has small holes to keep water from boiling over, so you don't have to worry that your turkey will be overcooked. The poaching basket also works well, though you can just as easily poach fish in it. It's dishwasher safe, so cleaning is quick and easy. We cooked a Thanksgiving turkey in the roaster, and, while the cooking time was a bit longer than we had expected, the meat was moist and flavorful. The roasting rack does produce some smoke, but it's minimal. The steamer rack also produces some smoke, but it's minimal. Overall, this is a very well-designed and well-made roaster that makes a great Thanksgiving or Christmas dinner.
