When roasting we recommend that you use
the trivet in the meat tin. Fat and meat juices
will drain into the meat tin below and can be
used to make gravy. The trivet also prevents
splashes of fat from soiling the oven interior.
Note. The meat tin should not be placed on a
heated hotplate as this may cause the enamel
to crack.
