[Food] Perfect Roast Meat

[Harry Wilson's tackle]

All well and good but different shaped joints need different cooking times - long and thin cooks more quickly than short and fat even if the weight is the same; if you are cooking meat on the bone it cooks differently to meat off the bone, and the size and shape of any bones will also affect cooking times...and are you sure your oven temperature is correct?

Bollocks. If that were all true, the flapping of a hummingbird wing in Venezuela would determine whether my tea in the morning is piping hot or all a bit Parish.

My oven is Neff. It is infallible.

That said I do find that looking at the food to see if it looks done helps an awful lot. Especially that time we had a power cut.

My oven is Neff. It is infallible.

And also one of the most expensive on the market. My mum has one - must be 30 years old and cooks everything to perfection. Absolutely no cold spots.

I have an expensive oven but it's nothing like a Neff with it's patented circotherm technology.

You my friend have A VERY EXPENSIVE GADGET.

Share, share, when one reaches the very pinnacle of their specialist subject, one doesn't share.
One basks in ones own reflective glory.


Oh and this weekend I schooled Lil Miss Stat in a dishwasher loading competition and took 10p off her through weather predictions.

BOW BEFORE ME.

Do you live in Shoreditch?

After a few years I have managed to master the BBQ with a closing lid.
On Christmas day I will be doing all the roasts, fish and vegetables in it.
There is a temp gauge at the front of the lid and by getting it up to temp and strategically reducing the flame on certain burners I can keep an almost constant 200 degrees.
Putting the lamb, ham and turkey breast joints in at varying times, so that they will be ready at the same time and whilst they are sitting waiting to be carved, putting the partially boiled vegetables in for a final cook.
Then when they are out, following up with the salmon steaks and prawns on skewers for the veggies amongst us.
Keeping the heat out of the house, a must in Summer here and everyone happy.

There's always the class show off

Just what l thought!

The Anova Precision Cooker is the world’s top-selling sous vide machine. It’s amazingly easy to set up with outstanding results. If you have a pot, a ziplock bag, and a pan, you’ll cook the best food of your life.

Are there any health concerns about cooking in a plastic bag?

Where do you get veggie salmon and prawns?

If your only criterion for judging that meat is properly cooked is that it is piping hot, I can see why you would have no need for a thermometer...

Yes you can't breathe

Feast your eyes on this, our triple-Neff beauty... an oven for every conceivable cooking need!

 

[The Large One]

Roast Lamb, slow cooked on gas mark 2 for about 4 hours is usually the most delectable soft enjoyable roast of all.

How do you do yours?

Plenty of incisions into the raw meat - smother the whole lot in butter which has chopped garlic, rosemary and anchovies mashed in. No salt. Seal it, slow roast it.

So basically a standard Neff double oven with another standard Neff oven slotted in above it.

Nope - the top oven is a combination microwave, oven and grill. So yes, [MENTION=34281]pearl[/MENTION], it is perfect for cheese on toast.

Similar, incisions with garlic and rosemary sprigs pushed in with a shake of salt and pepper over the top then just covered with foil and into the oven and forgotten for 4 hours. Simple but effective.

Yes have done this from an Italian Cookbook - from memory I think they said it dates back to Roman times - anyway it is absolutely superb.

If a Neff oven can't milk the cow and make the cheese itself I'd be amazed.

The poster has been rumbled.

Once you get your head round them they cook everything to perfection.

My mum (who was trained) was onto them years ago.

It's the ultimate kitchen gadget and the price of a small flat up North.

And I'm a bit annoyed with the "slow cook" posts.

That's easy easy peasy.

The difficulty comes with cooking something with little fat like a lamb or rack of pork.

That where a thermometer is useful. There is so much variation with weight and oven temperature.

Unless you own a Neff which will even wash up for you and ask you what you are doing at the weekend.
