Short answer: YES! As long as it's made with high quality stainless steel.
Most racks on the market are made of iron and then covered with a thin coating of chrome. These type of racks are the cheapest to manufacture and usually the lowest quality. The coating can eventually chip off and when it does, it could end up in your food. Yuk! Not to mention that manufacturers warn against using chrome-plated racks in high heat conditions.
And if the coating starts to wear away, the iron bars become exposed to air and water, making the rack very susceptible to rust. While it may SEEM economical to buy a chrome-coated iron rack, in the long run you will probably be replacing them more often. Not to mention the chance that you may be exposing you and your family to flaking chrome and rust.
So what's the alternative?
100% high grade 304 stainless steel, like all Ultra Cuisine cooling rack, so there is no worry of rusting or coatings flaking off into your food. 304 grade stainless steel is safe for oven use to 575F degrees which means you can use it confidently for roasting, baking, grilling, smoking, drying, and bbq, due to the high heat tolerance of 100% stainless steel construction.
We created the Ultra Cuisine cooling rack to fit perfectly flat inside standard sheet pans without hanging over the pan edges like other racks that are just too long, causing uneven lop-sided cooking. And all Ultra Cuisine racks are dishwasher-safe, oven-safe and offer long lasting superior quality.
