Roasting Guidelines
Tender cuts such as rib and loin cuts are best cooked by dry heat methods,
such as roasting. To roast:
1. Heat oven to desired temperature.
2. Place roast directly from refrigerator fat side up in a shallow roasting pan.
3. Insert ovenproof meat thermometer so tip is centered in thickest part of
roast. Make sure thermometer does not rest in fat or on bone.
4. Remove roast 5 °F below desired degree of finished internal
temperature.
5. Transfer roast to carving board and tent loosely with aluminum foil for
approximately 15 minutes.
