Cooking
If using aluminium foil:
1. Remember it is important to increase the cooking time by one third;
2. Never allow foil to touch sides of oven;
3. Never cover oven interior with foil;
4. Never cover oven shelves with foil.
Position in Oven
The most accurate method of testing the readiness of joints of meat or whole poultry is
to insert a meat thermometer into the thickest part of a joint, or the thickest part of
poultry thighs, during the cooking period. The meat thermometer will indicate when the
required internal temp has been reached.
