It Could Happen To You: Thanksgiving Cooking Fails To Avoid

Roasting Pan Not Big Enough

Just as bad as not having an oven that is big enough for the turkey, how about when your roasting pan is too small for the darn bird? It happens all the time. The turkey buyer doesn’t even think about what size roasting pan she has when picking out her frozen bird. She gets home, plops it in the freezer until the day before Thanksgiving. Then she thaws it and oops! The bird is too big. Time to phone the relatives and see who has a large enough roasting pan.
