Roast timers Top marks to BBC for handy app!

[IbizaToTheNorfolkBroads]

This isn't the first Christmas dinner I've cooked, but I don't eat meat and I get nervous about ruining the massively pricey meat the hoards want at Christmas.

I'd forgotten about this, what with the Covid Christmases and visiting the in laws last year.

Anyway - choose your meat, choose your rareness, choose your weight - the bbc will tell you how long to cook it. It's worked for me in the past, and is actually the same time as I'd calculated by hand from my Delia book.

Ok, not actually an app

Brilliant thanks - Just checked mine - was same as I thought but it's reassuring ! Good luck.

That's given me an idea for an actual mini app.

You put in your meat details, and select your vegetables, press go, and it pops up with little alarms over the next three hours for each stage, checklists for non-time-sensitive things (prep sprouts, find cranberry sauce, peel spuds) and five minutes notice before big things will be due.

It's way out from what I'd calculated on Jamie Olivers site!

Completely wrong for mine. I have a Kelly bronze turkey and they cook much faster than your average turkey. If I gave mine 3 hours 40 it would be a dry shrivelled mess. 2 hours is perfect.
