It\u2019s joined by Our Place<\/a> pans, Caraway<\/a> ceramic cookware and even Green Pan<\/a> nonstick pans in its desire to shake up the cooking world. But has the style revolution come at the price of function? Do these pans\u00a0actually<\/em> work as well as their less aesthetically pleasing<\/span>\u00a0counterparts? We tested the Great Jones Holy Sheet pan<\/a> to find out.\r\n\r\nAs a shopping editor, I\u2019m always interested in the brands I see making the rounds on Instagram, and I\u2019m in the unique position to give them a try before recommending them to readers. After all, at Taste Recipes,<\/em>\u00a0we\u2019re all about products that really, truly work\u2014not just ones that look pretty sitting atop your stove.\r\n\r\nBut at the end of the day, I'm just an amateur home cook. That\u2019s why I enlisted the help of Sarah Farmer<\/a>, Taste Recipes\u2019s<\/em> Executive Culinary Director. As a true pro, she gave the Great Jones pan a thorough test to see if it was up to her impeccable standards. Spoiler alert: It was.\r\n

What Is the Great Jones Holy Sheet Pan?<\/h2>\r\n[SINGLE_AFFILIATE_PRODUCT superlative=\"We Tried It\" product_name=\"Great Jones Holy Sheet Pan\" short_description=\"The Holy Sheet Pan from Great Jones is a beautiful, heavy duty baking sheet that is nonstick and easy to clean.\" image=\"1974866\" pr_name=\"Great Jones\" pr_url=\"https:\/\/go.skimresources.com?id=131817X1598243&xs=1&url=https%3A%2F%2Fgreatjonesgoods.com%2Fproducts%2Fholy-sheet%3Fsscid%3D71k8_z8pw9%26utm_source%3Dshareasale%26utm_medium%3Daffiliate%26utm_campaign%3D314743%26view%3Dsl-526730AE%26irclickid%3D1bXUr2y48xyKTy2Wy%253AVtAynxUkCUj609u3wOUs0%26sharedid%3Dtasteofhome.com%26irpid%3D10078%26irgwc%3D1\" pr_display_text=\"Shop on Great Jones\" \/]\r\n\r\nThe Great Jones Holy Sheet pan<\/a> is more than just a pretty sheet pan with a quirky name. It's a nonstick ceramic baking sheet that promises easy cleanup, a dishwasher-safe design and an array of three colorful shades to choose from. At $40, it\u2019s certainly pricier than most sheet pans you can pick up at big box stores, but it\u2019s similarly priced to other Instagram-friendly brands on the market.\r\n\r\nUpon unboxing it, I was impressed by the pan\u2019s weight, smooth surface and, of course, the bright blue color I chose. I daydreamed about the sweet potatoes I\u2019d roast and the cookies I\u2019d bake, all contrasted gorgeously against the shocking blue Instagram-ready hue.\r\n\r\nEven more than the pleasing color, though, I felt that the Holy Sheet pan\u2019s hefty two-pound weight signified quality. It certainly feels more luxurious than the bargain baking sheets I\u2019d relied on up to this point, which warp in protest in the oven.\r\n\r\nPsst!

How We Tested It<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\r\n\"Great\r\n\r\nI tested the Holy Sheet pan<\/a> in a variety of everyday cooking scenarios, comparing how it performed against my usual store-brand pans. I roasted veggies, baked cookies and gave it a thorough scrubbing after each use\u2014which was easier done than said, given how smoothly stuck-on food remnants slid off the pan.\r\n\r\nMy old sheet pan cooked items at the edges faster than those in the middle, but the Holy Sheet pan cooked evenly across the entire surface, so oven fries<\/a> and Brussels sprouts<\/a> crisped up at a consistent rate. Its spacious half-sheet size allowed plenty of room for chickpeas<\/a> to spread out and keep from rolling together\u2014and since this pan never buckled under the heat, there was no unwanted mid-bake movement.\r\n\r\nCookies slid cleanly off the sheet, with no crusty baked-on remnants in sight. The nonstick coating is impressive, and even sticky sauces and over-baked (okay, burned) dough were no match for the slippery surface. We're adding the Holy Sheet to our list of bread-baking essentials<\/a>!\r\n\r\nCleaning the pan was significantly easier than my no-name pan, too. I typically scrub a dirty baking sheet with no small amount of elbow grease. But with the Great Jones pan, I could\u2019ve simply wiped it clean if I wanted to.\r\n\r\nI wasn\u2019t the only one impressed with the Holy Sheet pan\u2014Sarah found it a worthy investment, too. \u201cAt first glance, the Great Jones baking sheet made a lasting impression on me,\u201d Sarah says. \u201cIt\u2019s bold and beautiful\u2014I hadn\u2019t seen this in a baking sheet before. And then I held it in my hands and that sealed the deal. I didn\u2019t even have to bake with it to know. I just knew.\u201d\r\n\r\nBut bake with it she did, and its results exceeded her already-high expectations. \u201cThe performance proved phenomenal,\u201d Sarah says. \u201cThe hefty pan offered uniform and steady heat distribution, owing to the heavy gauge aluminized steel. It has yet to buckle under high temps\u2014not once did I hear it pop.\u201d\r\n\r\nCleanup was quick and easy, too. \u201cAll the food baked on it released without any issues, thanks to the ceramic nonstick coating. My cleaning dreams came true when any and all of the gunky stuff wiped so easily away.\u201d\r\n

Great Jones Holy Sheet Pan Product Features<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\r\n\"Great\r\n\r\nSize:<\/strong> It\u2019s 17.25 inches long, 12.25 inches wide and two inches tall, though the Raspberry color is larger by about an inch.\r\n\r\nDurability:<\/strong> The Holy Sheet pan<\/a> is two pounds\u2019 worth of aluminized steel\u2014which is a material to look for when buying a baking sheet<\/a>\u2014with a ceramic nonstick coating. However, it's essential to handle the pan with care, as the nonstick surface can wear down over time. The pan is oven-safe up to 450\u00b0F and dishwasher-friendly, though the brand recommends hand-drying it thoroughly after washing. Great Jones also cautions against using metal utensils to avoid chipping and scratching the sheet, but I used a metal fish spatula\u2014gently\u2014without issue.\r\n\r\nHeat Distribution:<\/strong> Constructed from aluminized steel, the Holy Sheet offers excellent heat distribution, which results in evenly cooked and beautifully browned food. Many users have praised this feature, noting how it enhances their baking experience. However, it\u2019s worth mentioning that the pan is slightly heavier than standard aluminum sheet pans, which may pose a challenge for some users, particularly children or those with limited strength.\r\n\r\nVersatility: <\/strong>One of the standout features of the Holy Sheet is its vibrant colors and sleek design, which makes it a popular choice for both baking and serving. Many users appreciate that it can transition seamlessly from the oven to the table, adding a decorative touch to their meals. It\u2019s available in three colors: magenta Raspberry, forest green Broccoli, and royal blue Blueberry. (Speaking of colors, do you know the most popular KitchenAid hue<\/a> in your state?)\r\n\r\nPrice:<\/strong> Priced at around $40, the Holy Sheet is more expensive than many conventional sheet pans. While some users feel this price is justified given the quality and distinctive design, others point out that commercial-grade aluminum pans can offer comparable performance at a lower cost. Nonetheless, fans of Great Jones often see the Holy Sheet as an investment in both aesthetics and functionality, particularly appealing for gifting due to its unique appeal and high-quality construction.\r\n
