HI Again!

Had another question at my show tonight.
An older lady has a friend that has a loaf type pan that she would bake her meatloaf in and it fit inside another pan that would catch the drippings?
I have been around PC for over 10 years and don't remember this item.
Does anyone remember it, and/or have one you would want to get rid of?
Her friend would like another one, but I have no idea what it is?

Thanks-
Kelly V.
 
Sorry Kelly,

I just found about about PC....my "learning" experience started in Jan of this year....and I went to a "party", showed up at the end in Nov 08.

Wish I could help.
 
I've been doing PC since 1996 and we've never had anything like that. I saw one on Target.com so she could check there (or maybe at Wal-mart).
 
I'm fairly certain that's not a PC item.

I am thinking it was not a PC item also, but her friend is very, very positive she got it from PC???:confused:

I told her I would check around, and I also told her to ask her friend to look for a PC logo somewhere on the product.

I have been around PC for quite a few number of years before signing and I don't remember anything like that.
It's funny how (even if she did get it from PC) that they think we can order it again when none of us have seen it in years.

I agree with the others......I don't believe it's a PC item. You can always email the test kitchens and double-check, but I've been around PC for over 15 years and never heard of nor seen it.
 
nope not our product
I have one that I got when I redeemed Betty Crocker UPC points
 
Hi Kelly,Thank you for reaching out to us! It sounds like the pan your friend is describing is our retired product, the Meat Loaf Pan & Drip Tray. This pan was designed to make it easier to bake and serve meatloaf without the mess of drippings. Unfortunately, it is no longer available for purchase as it has been retired from our product line. However, if your friend is still interested in finding one, I would recommend checking online marketplaces or reaching out to other consultants to see if they have one available for sale. I hope this helps! Let me know if you have any other questions.Best,

Pampered Chef Consultant
