..... Controlled" Meat Cooking Guide on Page 23.)
Turn meat to fat side up and:
I. Place the temperature probe sensor into the meat
with the first inch of the sensor in the center of the
meat. The sensor should not touch the bone or fat
pocket. The sensor should be put in from the side or
from the front -- it should not be put in from the
top of the meat.

side of t_e oven wall.
