Abstract A roasting pan formed of an aluminum foil, in which the base or bottom of the pan is integrally formed to provide spaced upwardly extending projections having rounded top surfaces, which spaced projections form in effect a rack upon which a food product to be roasted is placed so that the product which rests on said upwardly extending projections has minimal contact therewith and elevates the roasting product from the bottom of the pan to permit the liquids, juices, and the like, to flow unimpeded around the bottom of the pan and eliminates the resting of the roasting product in any juices or grease from said roasting product which would otherwise be absorbed by it. By providing the upwardly extending projections as an integral part of the base, the use of a separate roasting rack is eliminated.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 4
Claim 1
Independent Claim
136 words
A roasting pan integrally formed of an aluminum foil material and comprising a flat bottom and upstanding side and end walls, said bottom having a plurality of spaced upwardly extending convexo-concavo projections or embossings formed therein having a rounded top portion on which a food product to be roasted rests when positioned in said pan so that the roasting product has minimal surface contact with the surface on which it rests and is elevated and spaced from the flat bottom to permit the juices and/or grease from the roasting product to collect on the bottom of the pan and flow freely on said bottom, the rounded top portions of said plurality of projections being on the same horizontal plane, said projections maintaining the roasting product out of contact with the juices and/or greases in the pan.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
136 words
A roasting pan integrally formed of an aluminum foil material and comprising a flat bottom and upstanding side and end walls, said bottom having a plurality of spaced upwardly extending convexo-concavo projections or embossings formed therein having a rounded top portion on which a food product to be roasted rests when positioned in said pan so that the roasting product has minimal surface contact with the surface on which it rests and is elevated and spaced from the flat bottom to permit the juices and/or grease from the roasting product to collect on the bottom of the pan and flow freely on said bottom, the rounded top portions of said plurality of projections being on the same horizontal plane, said projections maintaining the roasting product out of contact with the juices and/or greases in the pan.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
59 words
A roasting pan as set forth in claim 1 in which a continuous bottom ledge is formed between the side and end walls and the flat bottom, which ledge is on a horizontal plane above the plane of the flat bottom and in which said bottom ledge is below the plane of the tops of said projections or embossings.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
30 words
A roasting pan as set forth in claim 2 in which the side and end walls are provided with spaced vertical ribs formed in said walls to rigidify said walls.
