	Food	Standard	Procedure
	Food	Amount	Procedure
		Amount

	Beef, Pork		After each stage, turn the food over and
			shield any warm portions with narrow
			strips of aluminum foil.
	Steaks,	0.5-3.0 lbs.	After each stage, rearrange the food. If
	Chops,		there are any warm or thawed portions of
	Fish		food, shield them with narrow flat pieces
			of aluminum foil. Remove any pieces of
			food that are nearly defrosted. Let stand,
			covered, for 5-10 minutes.
	Ground	0.5-3.0 lbs.	After each stage, remove any pieces of
	Meat		food that are nearly defrosted. Let stand,
			covered with foil, for 5–10 minutes.
	Whole	2.5-6.0 lbs.	Remove giblets before freezing poultry.
	Chicken		Start defrosting with the breast side
			down. After the first stage, turn the
			chicken over and shield any warm
			portions with narrow strips of aluminum
			foil. After the second stage, again shield
			any warm portions with narrow strips of
			aluminum foil. Let stand, covered, for
			30–60 minutes in the refrigerator.
	Chicken	0.5-3.0 lbs.	After each stage, rearrange or remove
	Pieces		any pieces of food that are nearly
			defrosted. Let stand for 10-20 minutes.

Notes:

Check foods when the oven signals. After the final stage, small sections may still be icy; let them stand to continue thawing. Do not defrost until all ice crystals have thawed. Shielding roasts and steaks with small pieces of foil prevents the edges from cooking before the center of the food has defrosted. Use narrow, flat, smooth strips of aluminum foil to cover the edges and thinner sections of the food.
