How convection roast works

Convection roast is part of the Perfect-Convect³™ system. Convection roast combines a cook cycle with the convection fan and element to rapidly roast meats and poultry. Heated air circulates around the meat from all sides, sealing in juices and flavors. Meats cooked with this feature are crispy brown on the outside while staying moist on the inside. In addition, there is no need to reduce the oven temperature when using convection roast.

Convection roast may be set with the following options:

•Probe

•Cook time or cook time with end time

•Rapid preheat

The following temperature settings apply to convection roast:

•Factory auto-start default: 350°F/176°C

•Minimum: 300°F / 148°C

•Maximum: 550°F / 288°C

Benefits of convection roast:

•Superior multiple oven rack performance.

•Some foods cook up 25 to 30% faster, saving time and energy.

•No special pans or bakeware required.

For best results

•Preheating is not necessary for most meats and poultry.

•Place food items using the recommended rack positions for the type of food being prepared.

•When placing multiple food items in the oven allow 2-4” (5-10cm) of space between the food items for proper air circulation.

•Be sure to carefully follow your recipe’s temperature and time recommendations or refer to the convection roast chart for additional information -p. 27, Fig. 2.

See example below to set convection roast to start immediately with the auto-suggest (default) setting.
