Roasting beef and lamb roasts together

Can I roast @ 200 degress both a rib roast and a leg of lamb in same oven together without flavors transfering

meat roasting

Best Answer

I used to cook lamb (when I had to). I never cooked it with anything because the "lamby" flavor tended to transfer. Mutton, on the other hand, tastes a lot like mild beef, so I did cook those together. All I can suggest is that if you want to cook both in the same roaster, put one of the roasts into an oven bag to keep it separate from the other. There will be a modest transfer of aroma, but not of taste.

Does it take longer to cook two roasts at the same time?

Despite lore to the contrary, the cooking time doesn't double when you're roasting two hunks of meat in the oven. Chances are one roast will be smaller than the other, so approximate the cooking time based on its weight and start testing it for doneness when the kitchen thermometer rings.

Should you cover lamb with foil when roasting?

There's no need to cover a leg of lamb with foil while it roasts. Due to the longer cooking time of slow roast shoulder, it's a good idea to cover it with foil to help retain moisture. Take the foil off for the last 30 minutes of the cooking time to let the skin crisp up.

Can I cook a pork roast and a beef roast together?

A beef-pork combo roast combines the flavors of beef and pork and creates variety in your meal. Both pieces of meat need to be cooked to a safe temperature, so when cooking them together it is best to use a cooking method in which the cooking temperature and cooking time are similar, such as baking or grilling.
