CONVECTION
Convection uses a fan to circulate heated air around food as it cooks. Convection cooking cooks food faster and more evenly. Most recipes recommend reducing temperatures by 25ºF or reducing cooking time using convection.
You may select Convection with most cooking functions: Bake, Broil, Roast, Pizza, Rotisserie, Keep Warm or Leftovers. First select the function and set the oven temperature and time. Then press the Conv button to activate the convection fan. The oven will display the Convection icon. You may turn on Convection at any time as you are setting the function during preheating or during cooking. You may turn off Convection at any time by pressing the Conv button again.
ROTISSERIE
Put the baking pan on the rack in position 1. When using the Rotisserie function always begin with a cold oven and always have the baking pan in place to catch any grease.
Press the Rotisserie button (Rotis). Select either Chicken, Duck, Meat or Custom by turning the Selector dial and then pressing the dial. Bake temperature will flash. Turn Selector dial to select the temperature and press. Time will flash. Turn the dial to adjust the time and press. Convection is preset in all Rotisserie settings. It can be turned off at any time before or after you press Start/Stop by pressing the Conv button. Press Start/Stop to begin the cooking cycle and the timer will begin counting down.
Insert the food, on rotisserie spit, into the oven before selecting the Rotisserie function. For instruction on how to attach and truss poultry see following page. Be sure to position the spit correctly inside the oven. The right side has 1 notch and a slightly rounded tip. The left side has 2 notches and a flat end. Once the spit is inserted into the oven, press Start/Stop.
LEFT
RIGHT
11
Note that for each type of food (Chicken, Duck or Meat) the oven has a specialized cooking program. For the first 10 minutes of every cycle, all 4 heating elements will turn on for rapid preheating. After 10 minutes and for remainder of the cycle only the top 2 heating elements will be cycling on and off according to the program to maintain the set oven temperature and cook the rotisserie food to perfection. During the final phase of the programs for Chicken, Duck and Meat, the oven temperature will be automatically increased to enhance and crisp the poultry skin or outer surface of the food.
Use the Custom Rotisserie option to set any desired temperature and time for other types of food such as fish, vegetables, or fruit.
The oven will beep when the cooking time has expired. The oven will shut off and the display will revert to the clock.
Tips for cooking duck:
When using the rotisserie duck function, line the baking pan with two clean pieces of aluminum foil, one positioned left to right and the other front to back. The edges of the foil should be raised about ½ -inch over the pan walls around all four edges (see the picture below). This will help reduce excess duck grease from splattering and dripping.
Do not open the door during the last 15 minutes of the duck cooking cycle to avoid contact with hot grease. Once the cooking cycle has finished and the oven has turned off, take care that the duck grease is not bubbling in the pan or splattering when you remove the duck. Do not remove the baking pan until the oven and pan are fully cool.
Trussing Poultry
Tying meats ensures even cooking. It is important to use butcher’s twine to tie items that are to be prepared for the Rotisserie function. First truss the item and then secure it onto the rotisserie spit and skewers.
1. First insert the rotisserie spit into the food
for rotisserie (Fig. 1).
2. Insert the skewers at different angles to
hold the food more firmly (Fig. 2).
3. Next, install the fixing screws to secure the
meat or poultry to the rotisserie spit.
There are different methods of trussing, but all aim to achieve the same results. Tuck the wings underneath the chicken to secure them. For trussing, use a length of butcher’s twine that is approximately 4 or 5 times the length of the chicken. Place the middle of the twine under the tail, bring both sides up and cross over the top of the tail. Wrap ends of the twine around the end of each drumstick and pull to draw the legs together, crossing ends over each other again. Turn the bird over. Pull ends of twine up over the thighs and wrap around the upper wings, catching the tips of the wings in the loop. The twine is wrapped around the wing close to the body, and then both ends are brought to the upper side. If there is a flap of skin at the neck, it is folded up and the two ends of twine are tied over it.

Brining
Brining leaner cuts of meat such as poultry, turkey, and pork in a saltwater solution produces juicier roasts. The difference between brined and non-brined meats is very noticeable. If you have the time it is definitely recommended.
The rule to follow is to use a cup of table salt or 1½ cups kosher salt for every gallon of water.
Or, for smaller cuts of meat, ½ cup kosher salt for every quart of water.
Simply mix salt and water together. Place item to be brined in a non-reactive container or sealable plastic bag large enough to completely immerse the meat. Pour in the brine, cover, and refrigerate.
The amount of time needed to brine depends on how big the roast is. Following is a simple guideline:
Whole chicken 3–8 hours Chicken parts 1–2 hours Turkey breast 4–6 hours Game hens 1–2 hours Pork chops 2–6 hours Pork tenderloin 2–6 hours Pork loin 24 hours
It is important to thoroughly rinse and dry the meat once you remove it from the brine, so when it roasts it will be juicy, not salty.

6 cups tortilla chips (this is an estimate – you need enough to cover the bottom of the baking tray, but can have more or less depending on how many mouths you need to feed), divided 1½ to 2 cups shredded Cheddar and/or Monterey Jack, divided ¾ cup refried beans (about half of a 15.5-ounce can) 1 small to medium tomato, seeded and chopped 1 jalapeño, halved, seeded and thinly sliced 4 scallions, thinly sliced 1 can (4.5 ounces) chopped green chiles 1 cup sliced black olives (These can be purchased pre-sliced in a 2.25-ounce can.

Potato Skins
