Convection roasting tips

Use the convection roasting rack on the broiler pan and grid included with your oven. The convection roasting rack rests on the broiler pan and grid. The long side of the rack should be parallel with the oven door for best heat distribution and airflow.

Spatter can be reduced by lining the bottom of the roasting pan with lightly crushed aluminum foil.

Use an accurate meat thermometer to determine when meat has reached desired degree of doneness. Insert the thermome- ter into the center of the thickest portion of the meat. For an accurate reading, the tip of the thermometer should not touch fat, bone, or gristle.

After reading the thermometer once, push it further into the meat 12 inch

(1.7 cm) or more and read again. If the temperature drops, return the meat to the oven for more cooking.

Check pork and poultry with a ther- mometer in 2 to 3 places to ensure ade- quate doneness. Insert the thermometer into the center of the thickest portion and ends of pork. Check the inner thighs and breasts of poultry.

Poultry and roasts will be easier to carve if loosely covered with foil and allowed to stand 10 to 15 minutes after removal from the oven.
