Food for spring

She may buy it!

Leftover pot roast tonight....

The new oven has a convection feature. If you have one - do you like it? Was it hard to adjust to? I need to try it. Any suggestions for me?

My sil has a convection and loves it.


I LOVE pot roast, probably my fav meal

Gonna try pork in it.

We use it all the time. Faster and more even cooking.

I have one, its ok, ... I use it more in the summer when I don't want the house to get too warm.

Cool. I'll be sure to use it regularly.

Jan, I have an old Jenn-Air that looks like the dickens, but I would not trade the convection oven for anything. Depending the brand, you probably will use it a lot once you try it. Is it gas or electric?

Gas with the convection. I read that it's best to have low sided pans for a roast to let the air circulate. This cut of pork needs low/slow/and covered, so I'll try it tomorrow with some scones. Glad to hear that you all like yours.

Put it into a dutch oven if you have one. You don't have to worry about pans with low sides. The convection fan does the circulating; you hear it. Depending on your oven model, there may an extra electric element for the boost. (You cannot see it; it's accessed from the back.) Enjoy.

Don't want to spend too much time cooking today, but I can use something warm so I'm making a little 2lb corned beef I picked up on Sat and cooking it with some tiny red potatoes and a small cabbage. - as little fuss as possible..

We bought a convection micro combo last January. I've only used it a few times, maybe I should experiment more. I forget I have it until the gas oven is already heated.

I did use a Dutch oven and the pork was very tasty.

Went to get our taxes done so dropped kids off and had dinner at the in laws....meat loaf, roasted potatoes and corn

Am planning to work in the yard today, so will probably boil some ravioli....
