Coverting grilling time to oven time
My recipe calls for grilling a pork loin for 25-30 minutes over medium high heat with the lid closed. How do I convert this to oven cooking time?
Best Answer
Cooking meat by time is ill-advised, whether it is on the grill or in the oven.
Instead, you should cook by desired outcome, which is the final internal temperature. Pork is done around 155 F / 68 C, so you should roast it in an oven until it is just a few degrees below the target temperature, as measured by an instant read or probe thermometer inserted into the thickets part of the loin.
With a 400 F / 200 C oven, that is likely to take somewhat less than an hour depending on the size and shape of the particular loin you have, but the internal temperature is what will tell you it is truly done.
Note: you may want to remove it from the oven when it is a few degrees shy of the target temperature, and allow so-called carry over cooking to bring it up the rest of the way as you let it rest. Personally, I like my pork a little more done so I stop roasting when it registers 155 F, and let it carry over a few more degrees.

Another popular technique to mimic the grill can be done in your very own oven\u2014just think of your oven's broiler as a kind of upside-down grill. Using intense, direct heat to char and cook things quickly, proper use of a broiler can lead to a tantalizing, caramelized crust, very similar to outdoor grilling.How do I convert a grill recipe to an oven?
Set the oven rack at the highest position, or 4 to 6 inches below the broiler, if cooking chicken breasts, fish fillets or steaks 1 inch thick or less. Place the oven rack on the second-highest position, or 6 to 8 inches below the broiler, if cooking whole fish, fish fillets or steaks greater than 1 inch thick.Does grilling take longer than baking?
Both baking and grilling are dry heat methods of cooking. The main difference between bake and grill is that baking is a slower, lower-intensity cooking method while grilling is a quick method of cooking food over direct heat at high temperature.Can you oven cook burgers that say grill?
Open the oven. Yep. If you're looking for a little more speed and a little less smoke, you can grill inside the oven. Put a grill pan (or griddle) on the oven rack and preheat the oven to 500\u02d9F. Place your burgers on the pan and turn halfway through cooking.Cooking \u0026 Kitchen Tips : How to Convert Conventional Oven Times to Convection Oven Times
