Meats cooked in a convection oven are dark brown on the outside and tender and juicy on the inside. In most cases, cooking time will be less when using the Convection Roast feature. Sometimes cooking time is reduced by 10 minutes per hour.
To make sure the meat is cooked the way you want it, we recommend using the temperature probe provided with the oven. Your double oven has a probe in the upper oven only.
The special roasting rack and broiler pan allow heated air to circulate over and under the meat. This allows the meat to brown on all sides.
Adapting Recipes for Convection Roasting
Use the temperature recommended in the Convection Roasting Guide.
Preheating is not necessary.
Check foods for doneness at the minimum suggested time.
Use the special roasting rack with the broiler pan and grid.
For more information on adapting recipes, see the Convection Cookbook.
Convection Roasting Rack
Roasts or poultry should be cooked on the lowest shelf position (A) on the offset shelf.
When you are convection roasting you will use the broiler pan and grid and the special roasting rack. The pan is used to catch grease spills and the grid is used to prevent grease spatters. The rack holds the meat.
This rack allows the heated air to circulate under the meat and increase browning on the underside of the meat or poultry.
1.Place the offset shelf in the lowest shelf position (A).
2.Place the grid on the broiler pan and put the roasting rack over them making sure the posts on the roasting rack fit into the holes in the broiler pan.
3.Place the meat on the special roasting rack.
See the Regular Roasting with the Probe section to insert the probe correctly.
NOTE: It is important that the broiler pan and grid be used with the roasting rack for best convection roasting results.
