Is this 18 inch magnalite roaster big enough to hold a 25 lb plus turkey?

Good question, I haven't received mine yet. I purchased the 15 in sz for a friend and I know it's not big dnough for 25+ lb turkey.

I used mine for a small turkey, I am sure it will be good for your roast, it is very sturdy and ajustable.

It's pretty big but we've never tried cooking a 24lb turkey in it. We've only cooked a pretty good size chicken, among other types of meat, in it and it worked absolutely great. Easy to clean, lightweight, and cooks a mean meal. Just looking at it, I think a 24lb turkey would barely fit so I would go somewhere under that weight. For that large of a turkey I would recommend a Nesco cooker. We used that every year to baste and roast a mighty fine turnkey. But you can do the same with Emeril Roaster, too. Happy Thanksgiving.

18lbs is the limit with this fryer but you are better off frying too small turkeys if you need that much turkey.

I do not know the maximum weight it will hold but I roasted a 20 pound turkey without problems.

I have not used it yet, but I had another brand the same size, and I have made a 24 lb turkey in it. So you should have no problem with a 20 lb turkey.

It depends on the size, but this should be sturdy enough to hold a rib roast. Amazon also sells a non-adjustable rack that is a lot more robust that will pretty much hold any large heavy roast, turkey etc. So if you have any doubt about the size and weight I'd go to the hardier rack. We own both.

Just used mine for the first time. So, hope this answer is not too late. I cooked a 14 pound turkey in my 14 inch Calphalon roaster and it was a perfect fit. Would not go much bigger.

In my opinion no larger than a 10lb. turkey. It is a great pan. I love it.I use it for roasting everything from meat sauce to chicken.

This roaster is for a small roast so it most certainly does fit. It fits just a couple pound roast.

Seems sturdy, but 22 lb turkey is a good size so I am not sure of the pressure on the sides would cause it to collapse.This could easily support a 22 lb dumb bell weight as it is small enough to fit within the frame of the rack. This is well made, I am just not sure if the side pressure would cause the supports to slip out of the slots.

Yes it will easily handle a 10 pound roast. It will handle up to a 15 pound turkey as well.

It won't fit in the big easy the largest turkey it will hold is about 18 lbs.

The top of the Emberlit is approx. 5 inches across which sounds small but it can actually support quite a lot of weight as well as hold normal sized kitchen cookware. Granted, I wouldn't try to flash fry a buffalo on it , but an 18 oz pot would pose no problems for you because it comes with the potstand supports.

I don't know exactly but I just did a 25lb turkey on one rack with no problem.

I don't believe that it could handle anything larger then an 8 to 10lb. turkey. But if you have a small turkey or a roasting chicken, then I do believe that it would fit. I hope this helps you.

Yes it is but it is really big so it might not fit. Also, once something is cooked in it you might need to soak it a bit and clean by hand. Love this roaster!
