Pull it out (don't forget to turn off your oven!) and let it cool while you find a dish to put it in (to serve immediately or to take with you to work for lunch to make everyone wish they thought of that before they came into work).

Now carefully scrape the insides out into a dish. I also pour the juices into the dish first. We don't want any burns!
