Wilton Armetale Well and Tree Platter, Rectangular, 14-Inch by 11-1/4-Inch

Perfect for Roasting

If you’ve never used a Well & Tree Platter, you are wise to read the reviews. It is very different from a other baking or roasting dishes. The well is an oval indentation in the platter that collects juices and fats that drain from the meat you are roasting on it. The tree carries those juices from beneath the meat to the well. The juices in the well can be used to rebaste the roast. I guess this platter is similar in design to a George Forman grill. It keeps your meat from just resting in fatty juices, by carrying them away to another part of the platter. This is also an attractive enough platter to use to serve as well – or you can have a fancier Well & Tree Platter for that.

I use this pan to: roast chickens; bake meatloaf; reheat pizza slices; cook steaks, chicken breasts, or burgers under the oven broiler; and carry out other random tasks when other platters are in the dishwasher.

My grandmother had a Well & Tree Platter and my mother now uses it. Not able…

Excellent gift

I bought this as a wedding shower gift. I actually received one when I got married and have used it for every family gathering. This is a great piece to add to your kitchen wares.

Many uses

Received one of these for Christmas and thought..oh, ok. After speaking with my sister, she mentioned that she had one for years but never used it until a friend brought one over for a dinner party. She said she uses it all the time. Now she uses it all the time and thought I’d enjoy it. Well, used it several times and have to admit, it works great. I’ve set it on the stove to sear a pork loin then popped it in the over to finish, set it on the grill while cooking steaks, dropped them on the hot pan and presented sizzling steaks on the table and just recently did a beer can chicken on the grill with it. All the juices pooled in the well allowing for easy basting. Cleans up very easily also, just soak it for a little bit. Overall, very please and would recommend.
