CS2 – Guidelines for Large Roasts and Poultry (over
4.5 lbs.) and Casseroles.
• Allow approximately 1/2 the conventional cooking time.
• Use this mode for meats over 4.5 lbs.
• Let refrigerated meats and poultry stand at room temp for 15-20
minutes before roasting. Prepare meats at this time.
• Cook all large meat items on Rack 1, 2 or 3, depending on
height.
• Use bottom broiler pan of 2-piece broiler set.
• For lamb, whole chicken or turkey, use V-rack in bottom broiler
pan.
• Preheat before placing food in oven.
• Do not leave a meat thermometer in meat during roasting.
• Check food at minimum roasting time for doneness.
• After cooking, allow meat to stand covered with foil for 15-20
minutes before carving/serving.
• Food will continue to cook during recommended standing time,
and temperatures will even out and will rise approximately 10-
15 degrees during this time.
• Oven probe cannot be used in this mode.
• Refer to Page 49 for Food Safety Guidelines.
Tips for roasting a turkey:
• Remove wire leg clamp from turkey before roasting.
• To prepare turkey for roasting, tuck wings behind back and
loosely tie legs with kitchen string.
• Cover top of breast and ends of legs with wide strips of foil.
After half of the cooking time has expired, remove foil on breast
area.
• Cook only unstuffed turkeys in this mode.
