This holder is designed for both. Because it is made of durable cast iron, it handles the high, direct heat of a grill just as well as the steady environment of an oven.

Yes. The base is designed to sit directly under the chicken, where it captures the drippings and heat. The garlic cloves will roast in the juices, becoming soft and caramelized by the time the chicken is finished.

Like most cast iron cookware, it is best practice to give it a light coating of oil and heat it before your first cook to ensure a non-stick surface, even if it arrives pre-seasoned.

The 6.5-inch base is sized to securely hold a standard whole chicken, typically ranging from 3 to 5 pounds. If you are roasting an exceptionally large bird, you may want to ensure it is balanced properly on the infuser.
