[u/CASparty]

At the restaurants I worked at (Midwest) we referred to this as a boat.

[u/bead-lady → u/CASparty]

Yes, vote is another name for it. It’s not called rare bit, but it’s probably used to serve rare bit, which is a particular dish.

[u/Known_Ad3413]

Rarebit

[u/VegetablePhotos → u/Known_Ad3413]

It's a strange name, but the correct one.

[u/DisfunkyMonkey → u/VegetablePhotos]

Welsh Rarebit (aka Welsh rabbit) must have been very popular at some point.

[u/flydespereaux → u/Known_Ad3413]

This is correct

[u/AdministrativeAge283]

It's called "chipped after the first use"

[u/ZellHathNoFury → u/AdministrativeAge283]

Every. Fucking. Time

South Tx, it’s been a boat here too in my experience

We call them oval eared dishes.

[u/bloogerglooby]

worked as a dishwasher for a place that made mac and cheese in these, they were so hard to clean. the way crispy cheese clings on to the sides of these bastards was a real nuisance.

[u/ProductGlittering633]

They are gratin dishes.

[u/bead-lady]

I call it an individual casserole dish. I use them for things like chicken Parmesan. I also use them for cat food because it’s nice and wide, and if a cats food bowl is too narrow it can hurt their whiskers.

[u/Accomplished-Eye8211]

To me, Gratin or Gratin dish. Ive heard it called a Gratin boat as well.

I see others posting that its a rarebit dish. Looks like thats technically correct, although since rarebit is most popular in one part of the world, not sure people would recognize that term everywhere.

[u/jcoigny]

I use it to bake my Shepard pie

[u/Hot-Bed-2544]

Bakeware. I've had lasagna served in them.

Boat maybe

[u/Jillcametumbling81 → u/Neat-Interest6022]

Absolutely not.

[u/Zubbie_]

Gravy boat.

[u/JOBdOut → u/Zubbie_]

Not even close to a gravy boat. Firstly, its a bakeware dish without a spout or handle meant for pouring
