    quarter sheet trays?

    I am looking to buy some quarter sheet aluminum trays for serving only, I'd prefer they not be all shiny, etc and a bit duller. Anyone know where to get some? I searched around and couldn't find a good source other than buying actual baking supplies. Thanks!

    Blue K more stable than Stubbs?

    Whole Turkey - slow and low or not?
