Chef Pierre Franey says in
The New York Times,
"The Drannan WaterBroiler Pan
works wonderfully, not only for
broilling but for a variety of things."
The Houston Chronicle says,
"Inventive Pan Eases Clean-up —
It Minimizes Smoke, Splatters, Scrubbing
The WaterBroiler - WaterRoaster Pan is
The Most Versatile Pan Ever Devised.
Best Broiler Pan. Best Roasting Pan.

Here are a Few Things You Can Easily
Cook With This Multi-Functional Pan.
Barbara Flanagan in her insightful
book, Flanagan's Smat Home, says,
"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 launched by Lee Drannan Smithson,
a chemist in Dayton, Ohio. He trademarked
his invention, a deceptively simple device as the
WaterBroiler™ - WaterRoaster™ Pan and he has
been selling it to consumers, one by one, via
direct mail and website ever since. Its simlicity
only dramatizes its success, which comes from
not doing what other pans have done.
After a pan full of burgers or chicken legs haves
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
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 sellitself, 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
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."

Home is the 1869 Bossler Mansion in St. Anne's
Hill, a 30-room house that would have had
servants to do the cooking. Smithson, a bachelor,
is the ultimate quick cook. His idea of cooking is
to unwrap the meat, put it on the pan and tuck
it in the oven.
He doesn't even season the meat until after it has cooked. "It takes me all of three minutes," he says. "And that includes cleaning the pan."
Make that The Pan. For the pan that he designed, trademarked and has been selling for 30 years is
the secret to his success in the kitchen.
He calls it a WaterBroiler, which does double
duty as a WaterRoaster. Designed to eliminate smoke, splatter, flare-ups and tedious scrubbing,
it is a two-part pan so simple it invites skepticism.
Smithson designed and trademarked the pan while
he was working as a chemist at Wright-Patterso
Air Force Base.He had become disenchanted with grilling because of concerns about the carcinogens that can be produced.
He turned to broiling, but "that was a mess and a chore" because of the broiler pan. Being a scientist,
he decided to find a better way and he developed
the WaterBroiler.
"The old-style broiler pan is the problem," he says. The top is made of aluminum, with slits and what he calls "stupid holes." Aluminum is a great conductor
of heat, so the drippings from the food sizzle, smoke and bond to the aluminum rack. "The smoke comes from the rack, not the meat," he says.Smithson designed a round, two-part broiling pan of 18/8 stainless steel, which happens to be a poor heat conductor. The drippings don't stick and scorch.
The rack resembles a grill rack, which elevates the food over the pan. Both are blessedly dishwasher-proof, though they can easily be cleaned with no
more effort than washing a dinner plate.
The secret of the pan, he says, is part design and part technique. He advocates adding a cup and a half of water -- cold water, specifically -- to the pan. His voice, which still has traces of his Mississippi boyhood, goes up a few decibels when the word "steam" is muttered.
"Don't tell them it makes steam," he said recently while cooking a whole chicken, half a ham and salmon fillets on his pan. "It takes two hours at 350 degrees for the water to reach a boiling point." And 350 is his preferred temperature for roasting meats and poultry. The broiling takes a matter of minutes, and his chicken cooks in an hour and a half, so, he says, the liquid never comes to a boil.
The water -- or broth or wine, if you like -- slowly evaporates, adding moisture to the oven and the meat or poultry. And the water catches the fat drippings and prevents bake-ons, he explains patiently.
That is how he cooks, at least four days a week. He may grill only one day a year, but he roasts a chicken once a week.
"I've cooked thousands of chickens," he says.
In another variation on traditional technique, he declines to truss the bird, saying that trussing adds to the cooking time by holding the legs close to the body. And he unconventionally starts the bird breast up, turning it breast down after an hour. The evaporating water keeps the breast moist, he says. To prove his point, he pulls one out of the oven.
And salmon cooked with a rub of oil, a sprinkle of freeze-dried dill and some minced and cooked fresh fennel remains moist even when cooked well done on the WaterBroiler.

SSSSapere posted this review on Cooks Illustrated Bulletin Board: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."
