ROASTING

Roasting is cooking by dry heat. Tender meat or poultry can be roasted uncovered in your oven. Roasting temperatures, which should be low and steady, keep spattering to a minimum.

The oven has a special low shelf (R) position just above the oven bottom. Use it when extra cooking space is needed, for example, when roasting a large turkey. The shelf is not designed to slide out at this position.

Roasting is really a baking procedure used for meats. Therefore the oven controls are set for Baking.

(You may hear a slight clicking sound indicating the oven is working properly.)

Most meats continue to cook slightly while standing after being removed from the oven. Recommended standing time for roasts is 10 to 20 minutes. This allows roasts to firm up and makes them easier to carve. Internal temperature will rise about 5° to 10°F. If you wish to compensate for temperature rise, remove the roast from the oven when its internal temperature is 5° to 10°F. less than temperature shown in the Roasting Guide.

Remember that food will continue to cook in the hot oven and therefore should be removed when the desired internal temperature has been reached.
