DETERMINING MEAT DONENESS
It is recommended that you use a meat thermometer to determine doneness
when cooking meat and poultry. Insert the thermometer into the center of
the thickest portion of the meat. Cook until temperature for desired doneness
is reached.
*Rare pork, ham or poultry is not recommended.

ROASTING MEATS AND POULTRY
Meats will cook more rapidly in the Roaster Oven than a conventional oven.
Reducing temperature and increasing time will result in a browner, crispier
crust. Times indicated below are approximate and should be used as a
guideline only.
