I can't picture how big this is - is it big enough to cook an entire chicken? A roast? Or is it smaller for just veggies or something?

I've never done a whole chicken. But I have done a chicken that was cut in pieces and it fit just fine.

It's 9" in diameter and 5.5" deep. I think it would hold a medium sized bird and definitely a roast. 5 quarts is a very nice size. I love mine.

I have only cooked beans in it but you should be able to cook a small roast. Not sure about a whole chicken - could be tight.

we have used it for short ribs,and pot roast,plus numerous other things,I haven't tried a chickenand you would have to judge the size.Get a good book on pressure cooking,besides the one thatcomes with it,that way you have more of an array of recipes to try...this is one great cooker.

Not a whole chicken, obviously, but if you're talking a cup of rice and a couple of chicken pieces, absolutely. It's a great size for cooking for 1-2 people.

13 X 9 and 2 in deep. I have made roasts, baked chicken, grilled steaks and even made a cobbler in mine. It may not be very big but is sure is versatile!

I don't think it would be big enough for a chicken, unless it is a couple of Bantums. I wouldn't put my full sized chicken in there. I hope that helps.

Jon, I honestly don't know but I would imagine it would hold quite a bit. This is not a small cooker...I love it. If you can picture a full size chicken in it there is still plenty of room...height wise. It measures 4" deep...excluding the lid. Hope this helps. Marcia Ooops, saw someone's answer....6 qts.

No. I don't believe it's big enough. The most I've felt comfortable with was vegetables for 6. I believe Cuisinart sells a bigger one. You would also want a bigger steaming pot to go underneath it so that you could use more water for steam. Although I've never tried it a whole chicken definitely longer to steam. Vegetables for 6 has never taken more than 15 mins for this product. Things I love about this product...Easy to use and clean. Steams a variety of vegetables evenly.

I cooked an 8 lb whole chicken... and that looked to be about the max size... however, I will be giving my ronco rotisserie away as it is too much hassle with the clean up... I'd rather just grill the chicken... or whatever

no it is not, it is just big enough to cook a small chicken, few burgers, few pork chops and that is about it.as it is very small.. I hope this helps ;-)

It is 5 inches deep and 11 inches across. It's perfect for cooking a large roast or poultry.

Yes, I think it would be perfect. I love that little roaster. I bought it to free up space as well. I've done large chickens and pork loins with great results.

It is small. I like it and it cooks great, but it is not super portable. Especially for how small the cooking space is. I bought it because I have a limited storage space but I wish I had just bought the next size up. With the wheels it is much more portable for the backyard. Go to the company's website for exact dimensions.

A lot! Or depends on how hungry they are (: One point to remember is chilli has a high tomato content so you might want to toughen the seasoning up a bit first. I plan on waiting for a while to do that with mine. To give you an idea of capacity it will roast a couple of small whole chickens. I used it to roast 4 lbs of pork ribs and had plenty of room to spare.

It's tiny, not sure what you would cook. Also keep in mind there's NO adjustable heat setting.

Greg, sorry for the delay. On this paticular model, I'm not sure how well it would handle a chicken. None the less, even with perfect heating elements, given the size of the inside of the over it would have to be a small chicken due to height restrictions.

The book doesn't have dimensions in it. It will cook an 8 lb pork roast 7lb whole chicken or 3 racks of baby back ribs.among other things. Sorry not much help.

I don't know. I bought it for a gift for a friend. Wrapped it and sent it home with her. She loves it and uses it to roast chicken. Says it is big enough to make a large meal. Sorry, if I still had it I would measure it for you.

I wouldn't say a large bird. Something small maybe average size would fit. It's an average size crock pot.
