Beef, pork, lamb, veal and poultry can be roasted in the skillet. To obtain more
satisfactory results, a metal wire rack can be used to lift the food off of the cooking
surface. A rack is not included with this skillet. However, a metal wire rack that fits into
the bottom of the skillet and is about ½-inch high with smooth support legs can be used.
Follow these basic guidelines for roasting:
1. To help seal in natural juices, roasts should be browned in the skillet before
roasting. Simply preheat the skillet, uncovered, at 325° F/162° C and add the roast.
Brown as desired on all sides. After the roast is browned, lay it in the skillet with the
fat side up. Season as desired.
2. Insert a meat thermometer into the thickest part of roast, making sure that it does
not touch a bone or rest in fat. Cover the skillet and roast at 250° F/120° C. If the
spattering of juices becomes excessive during the roasting period, reduce the
temperature setting to "SIMMER." A small amount, no more than ½ cup, of water
may be added, if desired.
3. Roast meat to the recommended internal temperature, see the Roasting Guide.
Turn the temperature control to "OFF." Avoid removing the cover too frequently
while roasting, as this will lengthen the cooking time. Remove the roast from the
skillet and let to stand for 10 minutes. Always use hot pads to remove the lid and
roast. The juices in the skillet may be used for gravy, if desired.
