Using 3-Piece Clay Cooker
Has anyone seen a 3-piece clay cooker before? "Hartland USA" is hand-etched on the bottom. How and what is the center "rack" used for?

Look for the company name on the cooker and contact them. "Google" the name for a phone number or e-mail address. Or try "Googling" three piece clay cooker".

I NEVER soak my clay baker. I use it almost exclusively for roast chicken, as it crisps up the skin so much better than anything else. I also use it for beef and pork roasts. I do not use it for roasts that I add water to; I do those in a corningware roaster or in my slow cooker. The claybaker I use for things that I want crisp on the outside, such as Chicken and goose.

I have never seen the 3 piece kind, but I would guess that it is just to give the roaster more versatility--make two sizes out of it, or use both parts at once, as others have suggested.

Your pot can fit one dish in the bottom then the second on top. Like vegetables in bottom and a cake on middle piece. DO YOU KNOW that it has to be soaked for 15 minutes before you cook in it? I have a recipe folder that came with mine. You can put it in the oven or microwave. You don't have to add much water to dish if any because of the water the pot soaked up. Hope you enjoy your pot.

I had something like this, and they were different size tops. The shallow one was used when I made something smaller, and the deeper one was used for something bigger that would stick up over the casserole, like a large chicken. Mine wasn't clay, but I've seen clay ones with only two pieces (top and bottom), so I think that's what these are used for.

I think you put water into the bottom part, place the chicken or whatever on the middle rack, & use the cover. I think this steams the food.

Interesting. I have never heard of a 3 pc before. Maybe try looking on ebay to see if others are listed.

The only thing I could think of would be if you wanted to do a meat item or casserole/stew item in one part and then do a bread on the (top?) chamber. Does it appear to be deep enought on either top or bottom to accomodate both of those?
