Inspired by the American blacksmith design of the 18th and 19th centuries, the Smithey Carbon Steel Oval Roaster is designed in collaboration with renowned Charleston artisan and blacksmith, Robert Thomas. Hand-forged and limited in quantity, each oval roaster is visually unique, yet shares core fundamental design elements including: hand hammered handles with a texture designed for easy gripping and a beautiful pre-seasoned interior finish. With performance that rivals cast iron at a lighter weight, this roaster is both functional and beautiful, a true workhorse for the kitchen. Ideal for roasting chicken and vegetables, baked gratins, grilled fish and much more
