Best Answer

A roasting pan is a form used for roasting things in an oven. They are highly heat resistant, to withstand oven temperatures. Roasting pans are made of metal, borosilicate glass (like Pyrex), silicone, ceramic, enamel, and even aluminum foil. They often have lids which are used to retain heat and juices, but can be removed for browning.

For a small turkey, a disposable roasting tin pan with handles works well. These also work well for barbequing a turkey. For a medium to large turkey, a large heavy roaster (grandmas turkey pan) is best since there will be a lot of basting.
