4. When roasting, put your food in the oven. You
do not have to preheat the oven when roasting, unless your recipe recommends it. During baking/roasting, the burner will turn on and off to keep the oven temperature at the setting.
Roasting meats and poultry
� For even cooking, place the meat on a
rack in a shallow pan. This keeps the meat out of the drippings and allows the heat to circulate better. � Use a meat thermometer for the most accurate doneness. Insert it so the tip is in the center of the largest muscle or thickest portion of the meat or poultry. Make sure the thermometer is not touching bone, fat, or the bottom of the pan.
