A beast of an accessory by Cuisinart, yes it is. I was pressed into an emergency cooking situation over the weekend. My sister was starting to make shish ka bob on skewers for an unknown sorta quantity of people. Guessing 20 to 40, it ended up, if not 40 darn close to. Plus ther were other circumstances that were unfolding. She had chunked up 15 to 20 lbs of beef & y-bird & 5 gallon bags of onion, red & green peppers. I thought whoa nelly we need a different plan. So I thought at worst alumininimum pans with holes poked thru. Went to Wally World for a last ditch shot at finding something & lo and behold they had these Cuisinart "things", don’t know what they call em, I’ll refer to em as a roasting wok. They worked & are marvelous. I choke a little at the price at 20$ a throw but I also thought just what I was lookin fer. Wow, did they perform. I cooked on a filthy Char Griller gas combo charcoal "thing". I was on the substandard gas part & the "owner"was on the charcoal part cookin 16 hamburgers, 4 then 8 then 4, whilst I was cookin everything else for at least 2 hours. Back to these "woks", they are thick stainless steel that are NOT flimsy. They weigh a tad over 2lbs. I have 2 or 3 like constructed things like this, but this will take any kind of punishment fer cookin the "little things" like chunks of meat or veggies. Great product that will last you a life time. It measures at the lip 11 1/4†& the inside square at 8 1/2â€.
