Guide to Slow Roasting and Baking Techniques
An Important Note About Heat Settings
The suggested heat settings shown are approximate.
There are many factors such as outside temperature,
wind conditions and grill location that affect your grill
performance. We offer these cooking times as a
convenience, but suggest you watch the grill ther
mometer and adjust the heat accordingly.
Preparing to Roast
Roasting uses the indirect cooking method. There
fore, the food should be placed on the left or right side
of your grill with the burner lit on the opposite side.
Place your meat inside an optional roasting rack and
cooking pan that allows you to collect juices for making
gravy. You can also use the supplied cooking grid with
an aluminum drip pan underneath. Either way, indirect
cooking requires the lid of your grill to be closed.
Preheating your grill is not required for slow cooking
methods such as roasting, if you do choose to preheat
your grill before roasting, turn the burners on high and
close lid for approximately 2-3 minutes.
FfX)d preparation
Trim meat of excess fat. Truss meat and poultry with
cooking string to retain shape if desired. Bacon strips
cwi be used to cover the outside surface of lean meat
and poultry to help prevent it from drying out. Another
method for keeping food moist during roasting is to put
water in a cooking pan. then cover with foil. The foil
should be removed for the first or the last part of the
cooking time to ensure proper browning.
Tips for roasting
Except when roasting with water in the roasting pan, the
juices that collect in the- pan can be used as the base for
a tasty sauce or gravy. Place a cooking pan directly
over the heat, add extra butter if needed, then add
several spoonfuls of flour to thicken sauce. Finally, add
sufficient chicken or beef stock to obtain the desired
consistency.
Once the meat is cooked, remove it from your grill and
cover with a piece of foil. Allow it to stand for 10-15
minutes which allows the juices to settle. This will make
carving easier and ensure a tender juicy roast.
