Amazon.com Review
The raised alligator logo on the lid lets you know this is one rugged roaster. Made of durable cast iron, the heavy oval-shaped pot is ideal for slow-roasting a turkey, a couple chickens, pot roast, gumbo, stew-you name it-either outdoors in a campfire or indoors in an oven or on the stove. The interior of the roaster measures 17 by 11 by 5-1/4 inches, and the overall length from one integral handle to the other is 20-1/2 inches. The domed lid sends moisture back into the pot and features a handle that can be grasped with ease by a padded mitt. Before the first use, the cast-iron roaster and lid should be seasoned at least once and preferably several times. This will help prevent rusting and creates a nonstick finish. After washing and drying thoroughly, the roaster should be coated with solid vegetable shortening, such as lard or bacon fat (not butter or margarine). Let the pot 'bake' in a 300-degree-F oven for one hour, then remove and wipe off the excess. Spraying with a non-stick shortening after each use can also help season the pan. Most cast-iron cookware can be scrubbed clean by hand without detergents and then dried immediately. Bayou Classic makes a full range of heavy-duty cookers and cookware for the outdoor chef. --Ann Bieri

 HEAVY - BIG CAST IRON PAN July 8, 2008
After having to send the first one back with a big crack the second one came just fine. This is shipped in the cardboard box it came in no extra wrap or padding.Just luck if it gets to you without breaking. The second one seems better quality than the first also don't know if they improved there cast iron or what? The first one was bumpy and I wouldn't have given it a good score besides being cracked. Over all the second one no complaints and love the pan. Also no little alligator on top of lid as pictured. But I can live without it...Cleaning is a bit of work you have to clean the wax off it first soap and HOT water then coat it with a small amount of shortening to season it in the oven at 350 for 1 hour. Then its ready--This cooks a great 18 lb Turky! Over all Happy Also the lid does have lip on the edge, I think I read where someone said it didn't have a lip. The pan its self is streight on the edge but the lid does have a lip that sits on the pan nicely.
 Thumbs Down On This Product July 6, 2008
I'm a big fan of cast iron cooking but I probably won't use this roaster very much. I'm unhappy with the way the lid fits on the pot. There is no lip around the edge of the lid or a recessed area around the edge of the pot to hold the lid in place. The surfaces of the outer edges of both the pot and lid are flat and if the pot is tilted slightly the lid will just slide off. I've never seen this on any other cast iron cookware and I own many pieces of cast iron. I would not recommend this item.

After reading the other reviews I was a bit skeptical, but the problems seemed associated only with the inadequate packaging for shipping. With Amazon's free shipping, I thought I would just have them send me a replacement if necessary.
The unit arrived without shipping damage. But it contained a large crack which was due to the original casting operation. Also the cover didn't fit. I decided to try ordering the Camp Chef to see if that was any better.
On the packing slip, it states that the S&H was over $26. Amazon must be losing money on just shipping this unit, let alone having to pay for the return shipment via USPS! I can't believe that Amazon doesn't either pull the product or make Bayou Classic fix their horrendous QC problems.
CAST IRON NEEDS PACKAGING TOO! May 28, 2008

Bayou Classic 7417 12-Quart Cast-Iron Oval Roaster with Domed Lid I purchased this roaster twice and each time it arrived broken and/or cracked. It arrived both times in a thin card board box with two plastic straps around it. The packaging was obviously insufficient. Even though this roaster wasn't as substantial as the Emeril cast iron smoker, it seemed like a good buy. After two tries, with a request for additional packaging after the first broken roaster, I guess this is what it is. You take a chance. I don't recommend this roaster.
Bayou Classic Cast Iron Roaster May 22, 2008
Large, Heavy, with lots of room for a huge roast or turkey.
Does what it's designed to do, and does it well.
