Flat Roasting Rack

A simple rack that lays flat in the bottom of the roasting pan. It is available in a rectangular or oval shape and is made of thin wires running parallel to each other the length of the rack. It will have a couple of wires running at a right angle to help support the parallel wires. It does not work well for poultry because the legs and wings have a tendency to fall through the wires.

The flat roasting rack is available in a couple of different designs, since not all roasting pans are shaped exactly the same. It is possible to purchase a rectangular rack that will fit into just about every roasting pan. An oval rack is manufactured that is especially suited for use with an oval roasting pan. However, it is not uncommon for some cooks to use a smaller rectangular shaped flat roasting rack in a larger oval roasting pan. This is common when there are several roasting pans of different sizes in the kitchen, and the desire is to have one roasting rack that will work with all of them.

Construction of the flat roasting rack is very simple. Roasting racks are made of thin metal wires, often stainless steel that run parallel to one another, forming the body of the rack. Two or three connecting wires run across the body of the frame to provide strength to the rack. Often, the ends of flat roasting racks will have short metal handles that make it easy to remove the rack from the pan. The stainless steel construction ensures that the flat roasting rack will hold up to a lot of use, as well as be very easy to clean after each use.

The purpose of the flat roasting rack is twofold. First, the rack keeps the cut of meat off the bottom of the roasting pan. This allows for air circulation that helps to cook the meat evenly and eliminates burning. Second, the open construction of the rack allows the drippings to collect in the bottom of the pan, where they can be easily retrieved for making gravies and sauces. In general, flat roasting racks also make it easier to lift the meat from the roasting pan, as well as making cleaning the pan much easier.

The flat roasting rack can often be found in kitchen boutiques, restaurant supply stores and the kitchen departments of the more upscale department stores. Less expensive racks made of aluminum are often found in discount retail stores, but these types will not last as long as the sturdier stainless steel models. For anyone who cooks regularly, getting a good quality flat roasting rack is well worth the money spent.

A formed metal rack that is placed in the bottom of a roasting pan in order to keep foods raised above the bottom of the pan. The rack allows excess fat to drain from the food (especially meat) and it helps prevent the bottom of the food from burning or scorching. It also allows the food to cook evenly on all sides. Specially formed racks, such as the poultry racks and the v-shaped meat racks can also be used on the grill for the same intended purpose as when used in the oven. They will help the meat hold its shape and allow it to cook more evenly. Roasting racks are formed into different shapes and sizes to hold various types of meats, poultry, fish, and other foods. As an example, different shaped or sized roasting racks are made for ribs, roasts, chicken, game hens, vegetables, and various other foods.
