Slow Roasting
99
This cooking method is ideal for
cooking beef, pork, veal or lamb when
a tender result is desired.
First, using a cooktop sear the meat on
all sides to seal in the juices.
Then place the meat in a preheated
oven. It will be cooked at a low
temperature for an extended time
allowing the meat to become very
tender.
The meat will rest and the juices start to
circulate evenly throughout.
This gives the meat a very tender and
juicy result.
Tips
– Use fresh, lean meat that has been
trimmed. Remove the bones before
cooking.
– When searing, use a suitable cooking
oil or fat that can withstand high
temperatures (e.g. clarified butter,
vegetable oil).
– Do not cover the meat during
cooking.
Cooking will take approx. 2-4 hours,
depending on the size and weight of
the meat, as well as the desired
degree of doneness and browning.

After the cooking process
Because the cooking temperatures are
very low:
– the meat can be carved immediately,
it does not need to rest.
– the cooking result will not be affected
if the meat is left in the oven after the
program is complete. It can be kept
warm until you serve it.
– the meat is at an ideal temperature to
eat right away. Serve on heated
plates with a hot sauce or gravy to
keep it warm.
