Place the food in the oven only after the thermostat indicator light has turned off. very fatty meats may be put in when the oven is still cold. Put frozen meat in immediately, without waiting for it to thaw. The only precaution you need to take is to set the temperature about 20°C lower and cooking time about 1/4 longer than you would for fresh meat.

Use high-rim pans to prevent fat splashing and dirtying the sides of the oven.
