Choosing a roasting pan doesn’t have to be a big deal. Chances are, your turkey will come out fine regardless of which pan you use. However, there are advantages, other than how they actually roast. And there are seemingly endless options out there — each one looking nearly the same as the one on the shelf before it.
I’m here to help make it easy for you. These are the three best roasting pans on the market, based on what you need and how much you’re willing to spend.
For more than 30 years, I was in charge of testing and reporting on everything from wooden spoons to connected refrigerators at the Good Housekeeping Institute. I’ve walked the floors of every trade show and read every new product release for longer than most digital publications have existed!
My street cred? I also worked as a chef in New York City restaurants for seven years. And, I’ve made dozens of turkeys.
I’ve played with, tested, and used nearly every piece of kitchen gear (including roasting pans) to come on the market for years. When it comes to gear, it takes a lot to impress me, and I know what actually works.
I’ve tested what feels like every roasting pan on the market (at all the price points, low to high!) and these are my all-time favorites. But you don’t have to take my word and my word alone, either. Kitchn editors — a unique hybrid of professionals and home cooks, who develop and test great recipes in real home kitchens — and real Amazon shoppers weighed in on some of these picks too, testing my favorites in the context of their actual home cooking.
After all, when it comes to kitchen gear, what matters is that it works for a home cook — not just that a chef endorses it, or that it passed some high-flying bar in a sterile test kitchen. You want gear that is, above all, practical, long-lasting, and mindful of real cooks, real kitchens, and real budgets.

When you think of casseroles, do the words elegant and beautiful come to your mind? Probably not. Casseroles have many admirable qualities, but they are of the plainer, stodgier sort. Unless, that is, they are French.

Seven years ago I was sitting around with a bunch of my gal pals drinking wine and talking about our collective love for Thanksgiving. “Why don’t we all get together with our dudes and have a Thanksgiving together?” someone suggested. A Friendsgiving was born. At the first Friendsgiving there were construction-paper pilgrim hats. There was a long table in which we all sat and shared what we were Thankful for. There was turkey — and also a ham. (This was a result of a buy-a-turkey-get-a-free-ham deal at the grocery store that just couldn’t be passed up.) There were full bellies and fuller wine glasses. It was an epic celebration.
You too can make Thanksgiving potluck with friends a stress-free and fun-for-all event to live on social media for eternity. Here are my 10 commandments for a Friendsgiving to remember.

Although I get pretty weary of the pumpkin madness that hits the universe come October — I’m looking at you, Starbucks — there are two things I’ll make an exception for: bread pudding and pancakes. And since this post is clearly not about bread pudding, let’s talk about what we like to call “Pum’Cakes” around our house. They’re so good!

Halloween might be over, but it’s never too late to celebrate an awesome costume, even if it’s going on a paper turkey rather than a human. Forget tracing your hand and turning it into a turkey, that’s so 20th century: kids these days (or their parents or teachers) have gotten more creative with their Thanksgiving crafting, and the hottest craft for these rainy November days is the turkey in disguise.

In the hierarchy of Thanksgiving side dishes, a big bowl of mashed potatoes is forever firmly planted at the top of my list. In fact, it’s my favorite dish on the holiday table, period. And this month I tested some of the most popular mashed potato recipes out there — from Alton Brown, Ina Garten, Martha Stewart, and Ree Drummond — to determine which one was the absolute best.
Cooking and tasting these four recipes back-to-back showed me the clear differences — sometimes small, sometimes big — that can set this staple dish apart from its peers. So, which one deserves a prime spot at your Thanksgiving table? Here’s how they ranked, from my least favorite to most favorite.

Chocolate chip cookies are a classic dessert that are welcome year-round. You don’t need an excuse to bake a batch, like a holiday get-together, because you know that your friends will eat them literally anytime. But what if — and hear me out here — you didn’t have to bake cookies? I just discovered that Costco sells a three-pound chocolate cookie cake and, guys, this is epic.

Magic Erasers (also generically known as melamine foam) are kind of amazing. Not only can they clean everything from grout to oven doors to tennis shoes, when purchased by the 8-pack, these sponge-shaped pads usually break down to about a $1 a pop. They are designed for cleaning hard-to-scrub surfaces in hard-to-reach places.

All month long, Kitchn is testing some of the most popular Thanksgiving recipes on the internet. High on that list? Mashed potato recipes. It seems like everyone has their own take on the classic side, but whether you’re team creamy, chunky, ultra buttery, or some mix of all, we can all agree that no Thanksgiving spread is complete without them.
In Martha Stewart’s version, she gives you choices the entire time: from the potatoes (Yukon gold or russet?), to the milk (whole or heavy cream?), to the process (ricer or stand mixer?). Martha’s take was definitely more choice-heavy than the other famous mashed potato versions I tried (here’s Alton Brown’s, Ina Garten’s, and Ree Drummond’s), but I love an adventure. Here’s where this one took me!
