IMPORTANT GUIDELINES

• Thoroughly thaw all meat and poultry before cooking.
• Cooking cycles will vary according to thickness, shape and consistency of
the food. To avoid over-cooking, it is recommended that the food be
checked after the minimum cook time stated in the estimated cooking
settings on page 13.
• Select roasts that have even shape as they will cook in a more uniform way.
• The maximum recommended size for poultry is 18 lbs.
• Marinade, rubs, seasonings and spices should be applied to foods before
loading into the roaster.
• Recommended internal temperatures for beef are: Rare 140°F; Medium
Rare 145°F; Medium 160°F; Well 170°F.
• For even cooking results, center the Heating Element Cover as much as
possible inside the roast. The larger end of the roast should be positioned
at the top, not at the bottom.
• If the length of the roast isn't the same size as the Heating Element Cover,
leave the meat positioned near the top instead of near the bottom end of
the Center Heating Element.
!
CAUTION: Always ensure that the poultry or meat is thoroughly cooked.
The drippings from the poultry should be clear when cooking cycle
is complete.
• We recommend using a meat thermometer to ensure that the food is
thoroughly cooked.
• Before serving, let the food rest for 10 minutes after removing it from the
roaster. For a juicier poultry or roast, do not serve the food immediately
after the cooking cycle has finished.
• For easier cleanup, spray the Drip Tray, Top Rack, Bottom Rack and Heating
Element Cover with a spray-on cooking oil before cooking. NEVER spray
these parts while the roaster is in operation.
