Roasting Guidelines

Tender cuts such as rib and loin cuts are best cooked by dry heat methods, such as roasting. To roast:

1.Heat oven to desired temperature.

2.Place roast directly from refrigerator fat side up in a shallow roasting pan.

3.Insert ovenproof meat thermometer so tip is centered in thickest part of roast. Make sure thermometer does not rest in fat or on bone.

4.Remove roast 5°F below desired degree of finished internal temperature.

5.Transfer roast to carving board and tent loosely with aluminum foil for approximately 15 minutes.
