Traditional Balkan Roasting Made Easy

The Metalac Pekač 34cm is a traditional Serbian covered roasting pan designed to prepare tender, flavourful meals in the oven.

Known throughout the Balkans as a pekač, this versatile enamel roaster is a familiar kitchen essential for preparing roast pork, lamb, chicken, vegetables and hearty family meals.

Made in Serbia by Metalac, the 34cm roasting pan features durable enamelled steel construction, a matching enamel lid and a practical design that helps retain moisture during cooking.
