•
Double-check the internal temperature of meat or poultry by inserting meat
thermometer into another position.
•
Large poultry may also need to be covered with foil (and pan roasted) during a
portion of the roasting time to prevent over-browning.
•
The minimum safe internal temperature for stuffing in poultry is 165°F (74°C).
•
After removing the item from the oven, cover loosely with foil for 10 to 15
minutes before carving, if necessary, to increase the final foodstuff temperature
by 5° to 10 °F (3° to 6° C).

QUICK AND EASY RECIPE TIPS
Converting from standard bake to convection roast:
•
Temperature does not have to be lowered.
•
Roasts, large cuts of meat and poultry generally take 10-20% less cooking time.
Check doneness early.
•
Casseroles or pot roasts that are baked covered in CONVECTION ROAST will
cook in about the same amount of time.
