Hi! Can I ask about what size (lbs) roast does this hold? I want it for a party to hold a 4-5lbs roast...

I made a six pound with carrots and potatoes no problem... Haven't done anything bigger yet, but as crock-pots go, it's large and a great price. Lid does not lock for traveling, but I think it's to big to travel anyway.

I purchased this 2gal+ cooker for Deer Camp, 8 hours cooked a 10# Venison roast with apples, also it holds enough Chili/Ham Hock and Navy Bean soup for 12 people.

This crock pot is huge you can fit a XL roast and XL turkey breast in it with room to spare! LOVE it only down side is it is very heavy.

6 quart is fairly small but should be adequate for 2 people. It should be adequate for 3-4 artichokes. I haven't tried to cook normal roast but I believe it will hold a normal roast. The pot will hold 1 whole chicken. I hope that will help in gauging a normal roast. Overall, the pot is very well made with heavy stainless steel. I am now looking to purchase an 8 or 10 quart pot :).

I have put a 25 pound turkey on it in my large roasting pan - that is the largest I have tested! I have also put two 5 pound chickens side by side.

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

Mine just died this week after a year of pretty regular use for coffee roasting. I roasted probably 0.5 lb every other weekend. Light roasts, about 4-6mins/per batch x 4-6 batches. Not as long as I'd hoped but not horrible for <$30.

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.

This holds a basic roaster chicken. It is on the smallish size. It cooks for two nicely.

Haven't roasted chicken yet, but that's why I bought it. I called all clad, but they couldn't give me an answer about the thickness of the pan. I took it out, it's just as heavy bottomed as my other huge all clad roaster, so I'll jet you know! It's a good size for a single chicken or a turkey breast, it a 3-4 standing rib. The only thing different is the handles come out from the pan, not up. Let me know your result!

Funny you should ask, I just cooked an 4.6LBS turkey breast yesterday. The 6-Qt was a good size for this. It came out great but I did spend a short time braising the breast to add a little color and crispness to the skin.

It is deep enough for a 5 or more pound roast. I do not remember the depth. I returned it as it appeared to be used. I used it once and the food stuck to the non-stick skillet. It was cheaply made. I do no recommend it. Try GE instead.

I have mine set on 6, but it depends on the roast you use. The other big factor is getting the right tamp on it to achieve the proper pressure. Lots of tube videos that will help,you out.

Thank you for your inquiry! Yes, the quantity is 1 and it is a 5 lb. Roast.

I bought the 7 quart, there are many sizes. It holds a good size roast with carrots and potatoes etc. I really like it but would not get another one due to the fact of having to remember to use wooden or plastic utensils.

Not sure what size roast, but chicken should fit. It holds a lot and works great!

This depends on where your going to used the roaster. If on a grill, a large (7 to 8 lbs.) chicken would probable fit. I live in a studio and have a small oven. Therefore, I usually use a small bird (3 to 4 lbs) sitting on a baking sheet on the lowest level of my oven and still have problems fitting the bird.

You can fit more than a pound. I've cooked two to three pounds at one time in the large strainer. The small one is only for streaming.

It's only for roasting poultry, and should probably only be used for a 3-4lb bird. That being said, it works great!
