Directions for Cooking Poultry by Combination
Wash poultry and pat dry. Season poultry as
desired. Whole poultry may be roasted stuffed or
unstuffed.
Whole Roasting Chickens (1.0 kg to 2.8 kg): Place
chicken on Low Rack, with a dish set underneath, to
catch drips. Shield drumsticks with a strip of foil for
the first 30 minutes of cooking. (Foil should not
touch rack or oven walls, as arcing may occur.)
Whole Duck (1.5 kg to 2.5 kg): Pierce skin at 2 cm
intervals with a fork to allow fat to drain from duck.
Place duck on Low Rack, with a dish set
underneath, to catch drips. Drain juices from dish
once during cooking.
Whole Turkey (2 kg to 6 kg): Place turkey on Low
Rack, with a dish set underneath, to catch drips.
Halfway through cooking, shield tops of drumsticks
with a strip of foil. (Foil should not touch oven walls,
as arcing may occur.) Drain juice from dish once
during cooking.

the minimum recommended minutes per 500 grams.

desired cooking. Small poultry is cooked when
juices run clear and the drumsticks readily move up
and down. Large poultry should be checked with a
meat thermometer inserted in both thigh joints. If
thermometer touches bone, the reading may be
inaccurate.
