size, weight and the shape of the cut of
meat.
Useful tips
Because it has been cooked using low
temperatures
–
meat can be kept warm quite safely
in the oven until it is served. This will
not affect results in any way.
–
The meat is at an ideal temperature
to be eaten straight away. Serve on
pre-heated plates with very hot
sauce or gravy to prevent it cooling
down too quickly.
