GUIDE FOR COOKING
MEAT IN YOUR
MICROWAVE
• Place meat on a microwave-safe
roasting rack in a microwave-safe
dish.
• Start meat fat side down. Use nar
-
row strips of aluminum foil to shield
any bone tips or thin meat areas.
• Check the temperature in several
places before letting the meat stand
the recommended time.
•
Microwaved meats will be somewhat
different in texture than meats cooked
by traditional methods. Brushing
meats with a product such as Gravy
Master
®
will aid in “browned” appear-
ance and make finished product more
visually appealing.
