Roasting Know-How for Meat Temperature Tips
A tender roast should not be covered during cooking. If covered it becomes pot roast. Roasting temperatures: 300 F for beef veal lamb and smoked pork, 350 F for fresh pork. Searing does not lock in juices and increases cooking losses.
Use seasoned flour as a gravy thickener
Save the seasoned flour left over from dredging poultry or meat in a small covered jar. Use it to quickly thicken gravies and sauces, adding moisture and flavor without waste.
