PoWer/auTo DeFroSTIng guIDe
Follow the instructions below when defrosting different types of food.
FOOD
AMOUNT
PROCEDURE
Roast beef,
pork
2.5-6.0 lbs.
Start with the food placed fat side down. After each stage,
turn the food over and shield any warm portions with narrow
strips of aluminum foil. Let stand, covered, for 10-20
minutes.
Steaks,
chops, fish
0.5-3.0 lbs.
After each stage, rearrange the food. If there are any warm or
thawed portions of food, shield them with narrow flat pieces
of aluminum foil. Remove any pieces of food that are nearly
defrosted. Let stand, covered, for 5-10 minutes.
Ground meat
0.5-3.0 lbs.
After each stage, remove any pieces of food that are nearly
defrosted. Let stand, covered with foil, for 5-10 minutes.
Whole
chicken
2.5-6.0 lbs.
Remove giblets before freezing poultry. Start defrosting with
the breast side down. After the first stage, turn the chicken
over and shield any warm portions with narrow strips of
aluminum foil. After the second stage, again shield any
warm portions with narrow strips of aluminum foil. Let stand,
covered, for 30-60 minutes in the refrigerator.
Chicken
pieces
0.5-3.0 lbs.
After each stage, rearrange or remove any pieces of food that
are nearly defrosted. Let stand for 10-20 minutes.
Check foods when the oven signals. After the final stage, small sections may still be icy; let
them stand to continue thawing. Do not defrost until all ice crystals have thawed. Shielding
roasts and steaks with small pieces of foil prevents the edges from cooking before the
center of the food has defrosted. Use narrow, flat, smooth strips of aluminum foil to cover
the edges and thinner sections of the food.
