Place meat on rack in broiler pan, with the surface of cuts the specified distance from the heating element (specified below).

Cooking (cont'd) Roasting Guidelines Tender cuts such as rib and loin cuts are best cooked by dry heat methods, such as roasting. When using convection to roast, meat may roast more quickly.
