Tips for roasting

Except when roasting with water in the roasting pan, the juices that collect in the pan can be used as the base for a tasty sauce or gravy. Place a cooking pan directly over the heat, add extra butter if needed, then add several spoonfuls of flour to thicken sauce. Finally, add sufficient chicken or beef stock to obtain the desired consistency.

Once the meat is cooked, remove it from your grill and cover with a piece of foil. Allow it to stand for 10-15 minutes which allows the juices to settle. This will make carving easier and ensure a tender juicy roast.

Tips for Baking

Prepare your favorite recipe as you would in the kitchen. Foods cooked in the grill for long periods of time should always be covered in aluminum foil to retain moisture.

You will need to stir the food several times as it bakes, and add additional liquid if required.

Watch the temperature, and adjust to cook according to your recipe directions.
