This is the roaster they have and oh my heavens i hate to admit it however no oven i have ever used put out a juicier bird than this thing did and i have always prized myself on Juicy Birds....lol as thanksgiving really is my favorite meal to cook, the last few years the kids have taken over and they have all these amazing gadgets...haha im showing my age here. I love a traditional thanksgiving dinner stuffed bird and all however there is no stuffing a bird in the above. My daughter makes a pretty good stuffing herself.

My daughter makes a traditional meal with her own spin on things as it should be.

My mim always said to have a chicken cooking before a storm. You can make a lot from it....sammiches and such....

I too make chicken in a crock pot. It really is a comfort food. You can also roast chicken in a regular crock pot lay your pieces on the bottom add seasoning if desired a tiny bit of water so as not to drown however roast set it in the am and when you get home from work you have roasted chicken...I have done this many times its yummy. I will usually do a ten hour roast so it cooks slow and doesn't burn and since i like skin it gives the skin a nice color. sometimes ill add worcester sauce for flavoring, depends on my mood.

For years I used the crock pot for one thing; Pulled Pork.

I also do an Italian style garlicky tomato Pork that falls apart after a few hours. I serve this over Polenta. That is a winner. One of those great dishes to cook for a date. Though the winner in that category is my shrimp, artichoke heart, sun dried tomato, garlic, angel hair pasta dish. Yep..cant even post my dates response to that dish, lets just say it was very positive. lol.
