Boca Grande – Gasparilla (Barrier Island) Florida Vinyl Decal

boca grande gasparilla island florida

Boca Grande, Gasparilla Island, Florida

I like sandy beaches; I like pirate history. I guess that’s why I loved creating this vinyl as much as the Coronado Islands. Islands and pirates go hand in hand.

Boca Grande is known for its sugar sand beaches and world class fishing. The name boca grande (Spanish for “big mouth”) comes from the Boca Grande Pass at the southern tip of Gasparilla Island, a barrier island in southwest Florida. Jose Gaspar, nicknamed Gasparilla, was the Last of the Buccaneer pirates, important in Florida folklore.

Let me know how you like it. Link to purchase is below.

What is a Roasting Pan?

roasting pan

A roasting pan is a large, heavy pan used to roast anything from meats and poultry to animal bones and vegetables. They are sometimes used in conjunction with a rack to keep the meats away from the dripping fat and accumulated juices. Using the rack keeps the item being roasted from either getting to wet or soggy, and develops better browning all over.

They are in most cases rectangular in shape. Roasting pans with shallow sides give maximum exposure to the oven heat. Those with higher sides are used to roast items that will release excess water, or can bake items in a liquid.

Types of Roasting Pans

  • Non stick: easy cleaning.
  • Copper lined with stainless steel: copper offers great heat conduction while the stainless steel provides a good cook surface.
  • Aluminum: another good choice for heat conduction, and more affordable than other types.
  • Stainless steel: long-lasting, and easy maintenance.
  • Layered metals: typically the bottom is layered with aluminum sandwiched between stainless steel, offering good conduction and can be used with all heat sources.

Roasting pans from our favorite affiliates:

  • Item: Aluminum non-stick roasting pan with rack (Amazon)
  • Maker: Cook N Home
  • Why we like it: Non-stick coating, aluminum body which has great conduction. Hand wash, but easy clean up with the non-stick coating. Come with a rack, and large enough to hold just about anything. Works on all cook surfaces. Comes with a rack, too.
