Convection Roasting tips:
•
Preheating for convection roast will not be necessary for
most meats and poultry.
•
Arrange oven racks so the food is in the center of the oven.
•
Since convection roast cooks faster, you can reduce cook
times by 25% from the recommended time of your recipe
(check the food at this time). Then if needed, increase cook
time until the desired doneness is obtained.
•
Do not cover foods when dry roasting - covering will
prevent the meat from browning properly.
•
Be sure to carefully follow your recipe’s temperature and
time recommendations or refer to the convection roast
recommendations in
•
Use the broiler pan and insert, as well as the roasting rack
(
) (some models). The broiler pan will catch grease
spills, and the insert will help prevent splatters. The roasting
rack will hold the meat.
•
Do not use the broiler pan without the grid or cover the grid
with aluminum foil.
•
Always pull the rack out to the stop position before
removing food.
•
It is not recommended to roast chicken on a roasting rack.
Use a deep pan instead on rack position 1.

1.
For beef, medium 160°F. Well done 170°F. The U.S. Department of Agriculture states, “Rare fresh beef is popular, but you should know that cooking it to
only 140°F (60°C) means some food poisoning organisms may survive.” (Source: Safe Food Book, Your Kitchen Guide, USDA Rev. June 1985.) The low-
est temperature recommended by the USDA is 145°F (63°C) for medium rare fresh beef. For beef medium 160°F, well done 170°F.
2.
Stuffed turkey requires additional roasting time. Shield legs and breast with foil to prevent over browning and drying of the skin. Stuffing should be about
165°F.
