Roasting

General Roasting Recommendations

•Preheating is not necessary.

•For open pan roasting, place meat or poultry on the slotted portion of the two- piece pan included with the oven. Do not add water to the pan. Use open pan roasting for tender cuts of meat. Less tender cuts of meat need to be cooked by moist heat in a covered pan.

•For best results, a meat thermometer is the most accurate guide to degree of doneness. The tip of the thermometer should be located in the thickest part of a roast, not touching fat, bone, or gristle. For turkeys and large poultry products, insert the tip of the thermometer into the thickest part of the inner thigh.

•Place roast fat side up to allow self basting of meat during roasting.

•Since meats continue to cook afterbeing removed from the oven, remove roast from oven when it reaches an internal temperature about 5 degrees below the temperature desired.

•For less loss of juices and easier carving, allow about 15 minutes "standing time" after removing meat from oven.

•For best results in roasting poultry, thaw completely. Due to the structure of poultry, partially thawed poultry will cook unevenly.

Radiant Bake Roasting Recommendations

•If preferred tender cuts of meat can be roasted in the radiant bake oven by following the general recommendations given above. However, meats will roast more quickly in the convection oven.

•Radiant bake is best for less tender cuts of meat that require a longer, moist

heat method of cooking. Follow your recipe for times and temperatures for covered meats.

•Meats cooked incooking bags, dutch ovens, or covered roastingpans arebest cooked in the radiant bake oven.

•Use meat roasting charts in standard cookbooks for recommended times and temperatures for roasting in radiant bake oven.
