Main Oven Cookery Notes

Temperature and time

Frozen meat and poultry

When all three shelves are used to cook large quantities of food for home freezing or parties, it may be necessary to increase the cooking times given in the temperature charts by a few minutes, to allow for the loss of heat due to extra time taken to load the oven, and the larger mass of food. Baking trays should have an equal gap at either side of the oven.

Joints of meat and whole birds should be defrosted slowly, preferably in a domestic refrigerator (allowing 5-6 hours per 450g (1 lb), or at room temperature (allowing 2-3 hours per 450g (1 lb).
