Will a 5-6 lb Turkey Breast Fit in the Deep Covered Baker?

[esavvymom]

Will a 5-6 lb turkey breast fit in the DCB? I have a customer asking....she cooks them alot and was hoping to cook two at a time...one in a DCB, and one in her Round Baker (I think she has the bowl from years back).

I wasnt sure, but I know I have cooked some big chickens just fine! I told her that if she did get it (I am running a sale to get some biz this month!) that she could return it if she didnt like it.

It's hard to say for certain whether a 5-6 lb turkey breast will fit in the DCB as every oven is different. However, some customers have reported that they have cooked a 6-7 lb turkey breast in their DCB with success. If your customer is unsure, you could suggest that she buy the DCB and then return it if the turkey does not fit.

Yes, a 5-6 lb turkey breast should fit in the Deep Covered Baker. The DCB has a capacity of 8 cups, which is equivalent to 2 quarts or 1/2 gallon. It should comfortably fit a turkey breast of that size. However, it is always best to double check the dimensions of the turkey breast and the DCB to ensure a proper fit. As for cooking two at a time, it may be possible depending on the size of the Round Baker. Again, it is best to double check the dimensions and make sure there is enough space for both turkey breasts to cook evenly.
