Inventive Broiler - Roaster Pan Easy
Cleans In a Minute! No Scrubbing!

Innovative Pan Design Lets You
B
roil and Roast With No Smoke!

No Noisy Exhaut Hood Needed! 

No Splatters! No Flare-ups!
No Bake-ons! No Scrubbing Ever!

My  Forkula™ Tongs invention lets you instantly turn food  on  WaterBroiler Pan. The Forkula is also A Great BBQ  Tool. No more chasing bugers with a spatula!

Here's How To Easily Use and Easily Clean 
The WaterBroiler®-WaterRoaster? Pan.

It Couldn't be Easier!  It Couldn't be Cleaner!  It Could't be Simpler!

Use The Pan Under Your Existing Oven Broiler When
Broiling and In Your 350° Oven When Roasting.

The Pan is NOT designed for stove-top use.

(1) Pour 1½ Cups of COLD Water into The Pan Before
 Broiling and Roasting. That's about 1/4 inch of COLD Water.

(2) Place the Rack on TOP of the Pan.  Place Food on
Top of The Rack.  Never Cover the Food with Anything.

(3) Broil UNDER Your Oven Broiler or Roast IN
Your 350° Oven, The Ideal Roasting Temperature!


The  18/8 Stainless Steel "drip" Pan and the

18/8 Stainless Steel Wire Rack  Are The Two Main Secrets.
Pouring Cold Water into the Pan before Broiling and Roasting
Has Profound Cleaning And Taste Benefits,  so The Pan is 

Fear not. The water will NOT steam the food in this

'poor heat conducting' 18/8 Stainless Steel Pan.
It takes 2 hours in a 350° Oven for the water to boil. 

The waterevaporates just enough to add a small, beneficial
amount of moisture to the oven to keep food juicy and succulent.

Hand Basting is Now a Thing of the  Ancient Past!

The cold water cools the drippings and prevents the drippings
from sticking which makes the drip pan super easy to clean.

The Mirror-Polished 18/8 Stainless Steel Drip Pan
And  the Rare 18/8 Stainless Steel Wire Rack Are Easily
Cleaned in a Minute with a Dishbrush or Dishcloth.

NO STEEL WOOL. NO GREEN PADS.
NO SCRUBBING EVER NEEDED.  GUARANTEED.

The Pan and Rack Also Clean Beautifully In Your Dishwasher!

CAUTION:
Don't think that you can pour water into your old broiler pan
and accomplish the same thing.  No, You Can't!

Yes, water will make your old drip pan easier to clean,
but, water in common broiler pans will NOT prevent
Broiling Smoke, Splatter, Flare-ups, and Scrubbing
That Come From Hot Drippings that Puddle, Flare-up And Burn on
Ill-Conceived Perforated Sheet Metal Racks with a few 'drip' Holes.

"Works just as described.  My husband LOVES the WaterBroiler Pan.    Easy to Clean.  Steaks were Great."

 

My Pan Looks So Simple, it Invites Skepticism,
Particularly Since All My Claims Sound Too Good To Be True!
To Prove ALL my Claims are True, it Takes a Lot of Explanation and Proof.

"The ease of cleaning is wonderful, and I enjoy not having grease splattered all
over the broiling area. The Forkula Tongs are also excellent."  
Dr. Paul Gorsuch, M.D.,Texas

 The 18/8 Stainless Steel Metal is Right.

Both The drip Pan AND The Wire Rack are made of 100%
18/8 Stainless Steel for 
More than Beauty and Endurance. 


18/8 Stainless Steel is a poor heat conductor,  the perfect metal for a
broiler-roaster pan that does NOT need to get HOT to cook perfectly.


Of course, the pan gets hot, but not as hot as quickly as broiler-roaster pans
 made of good heat conducting aluminum, black porcelain steel, or clad metals.

Buyer Beware when Buying 'Stainless Steel' Cookware!
Did you know?  There are Over 100 Types of

'Stainless Steel' based on Chemical Composition!

By definition, "Stainless Steel" is Any Iron Based Alloy that contains
at least 11% Chromium.  Stainless Steel that meets that minimum
definition is NOT good for Cookware. It is reactive to acidic food.

18/8 Stainless Steel contains at least 18% Chromium and 8% Nickel.
18/10 Stainless Steel contains at least 18% Chromium and at 10%  Nickel.
18/8 and 18/10 Stainless Steel are The Best for Cookware!

The small 2%  difference in Nickel content makes no practical dfference.

The High Chromium and Nickel content of 18/8 and 18/10 Stainless Steel
makes those metals impervious to acidic foods, more durable, and
polishable to a very smooth, mirror finish for easy cleaning.

Here's an Instant Way to Test Your 'Stainless Steel' Products:

A magnet will STICK to Cheap Stainless Steel that contains No nickel.
A magnet  will NOT STICK to Expensive 18/8 or 18/10 Stainless Steel.

The Round Pan is Right

Unlike rectangular pans that are too big and impossible to clean,
This Round Pan is Thoughtfully Designed 
To Fit IN Divided Sinks. 
To Fit IN Dishracks. To Fit IN Dishwashers.

And, To Hang Beautifully on your Potrack for Daily Access.

"Used 11 times the first week! Helps my diet."

The Size is Right 

Ann Heller, Food Editor of The Dayton Daily News says,

"Dayton inventor's WaterBroiler and Forkula
make life easier for home cooks.
Lee Drannan Smithson calls himself a scientist. An inventor.
Occasional Caterer. Add to that minimalist and iconoclast --  
for in his kitchen, the former chemist smashes some
of the prevailing 
wisdom of home cooks."

How to Broil Frozen Steaks and Hamburgers!
NO THAWING ADVISED.  NO THAWING NEEDED!

Here's Why Steaks Taste Better When Broiled From Frozen.

Frozen Steaks take a few extra minutes to Broil to a Tasty Crispy
Exterior While the Frozen Center Cooks Perfectly...Medium Rare.

My two favorite steaks are a 1" thick marbled Rib-Eye or
a 1" thick New York Strip (aka Boneless Top Loin).

Broil about seven minutes until crispy brown.
Turn and continue broiling for six more minutes.
The 1/2 Inch Center of  1" Steaks Cook Perfectly...Medium Rare.

Once you eat a steak broiled from The Frozen State,
You will Freeze All Your Steaks Before Broiling.

Hamburgers can be broiled from the Frozen State for
Convenience, but be S
ure and Cook them Well-Done.
It is NOT Safe 
to eat Rare or Medium Rare Hamburgers!

Imagine The Ease and Convenience

When you're pressed for time, or you're too tired to cook,
pull frozen steaks or hamburgers out of your freezer and
Broil them while you're 
microwaving the vegetables and
potatoes or 
making a salad and setting the table.

You will be sitting down to a delicious, trouble-free meal in
less than 30 minutes w
ith less effort than it would take to
get ready to go out to eat and for a fraction of the cost.

You Can Buy the WaterBroiler Pan/Forkula Tongs Set
And a Lifetime of Broiling and Roasting Pleasure for
  About the Cost of One Steak Dinner in a Fine Restaurant.

"Perfect! Used for 1st time, Clean up a breeze.
Should have bought sooner!"

"The WaterBroiler is fantastic! I am so glad I bought it."

"Excellent time saving, taste enhancing product at excellent price!"
"Way better than that huge thing that came free with my stove!  Love it."

"Unbelievable product, better than advertised."

"Why are you keeping this wonderful product such a secret? 

Start Broiling and Roasting on my inventive Pan, and
I will Gain a Grateful Friend for Life, and You will Gain
A Lifetime of  Healthy, Trouble-Free Broiling and Roasting.

Sapere posted this review on Cooks Illustrated Bulletin Board:

"I bought Drannan's WaterBroiler, guessing that the Pan would not
be as ideal as it claims, but still better than the usual broiler pans. 

In other words, I thought it was too good to be true, but since he
promised a money-back guarantee, it was a low-risk experiment.

It turned out that the pan delivered everything it claimed.
I used to avoid broiling due to the mess and smoke. 

Now I broil almost every day. It may sound sappy but this pan
has really changed the way I cook. And no, I am not a paid
spokesperson for the product...just a converted skeptic."

"The Dralnnan WaterBroiler Pan works wonderfully,
not only for broiling but for a variety of things."

"My husband says we may never use a skillet again!" 

 Watch My 4 Minute Video, and I Will Explain How I Invented This Revolutionary Cooking Pan That Every Cook and Chef Deserves.

Barbara Flanagan says in her book,
Flanagan's Smart Home,

"The broiling pan of the future is here,
its design informed by Lee Drannan Smithson's
 conviction:  The broiling process is not inherently
brutal, but is, in fact, a peaceful cooking technique made
violet and disgusting by "ill-con ceived" broiler pans.
In 1975,  a new kind of broiler pan was quietly introduced
by Lee Drannan Smithson, a chemist in Dayton, Ohio. 

He trademarked his invention, a deceptively simple

device, as The WaterBroiler™-WaterRoaster™ and
has been selling it to consumers, one by one,
via direct mail and website ever since.

Its simplicity only dramatizes its success, which
comes from not doing what other pans have done. 

After a pan full of burgers or chicken legs has been
broiling for a while, the first surprise is silence.
No splashing, no burbling, no sizzling,
no screeching of the smoke alarm. 

When the meat is done, it tastes the way it looks,
just like ad copy always says: moist on the inside, crisp
on the outside.  Afterwards, the pan needs no scouring, 
just a trip through the dishwasher's regular cycle. 

That his innovation has not become a mainstream
commercial 
product, as ubiquitous as the colander,
explains a lot about design. 
Unless the product can sell
itself, by looking like what it's 
supposed to look like,
it can't compete in the big marketplace.

A product that needs explaining, like his, is a hard sell.

And that's part of its charm. It reminds you that the big companies don't have all the answers after all.
The inventor/entrepreneur 
is still alive and
well, cooking silent burgers in Ohio."
