[Small-Appliance-Cooking] using the microwave for precooked meats

[Lighthouse]

Hi,

 

I have found that cooking as little as possible to be successful for
precooked meats. I used to buy the Schwan's cheeseburgers. I would take the
meat and cheese out of the roll, heat the roll just enough to thaw it, put
the meat on a plate and heat about 15 seconds, turn it over and do it again
with the cheese. Then, put it on the roll. I found that if you heat it
altogether some part of it isn't right. 

 

I think it takes a lot of practice and trial and error to cook meat
correctly in a microwave. It is so easy to over cook and make the meat dry
and stringy.

 

When I do a hotdog, I thaw it in the microwave, and then brown it up in my
toaster oven. I like the skin to be  a little crunchy, almost burned, but
not quite.

 

When I bring Steak home from a restaurant, I melt a little butter, cut the
meat in bite sized pieces, coat each piece, and heat as little as possible.
It is pretty yummy that way.

 

Bernice and the adorable LoLO.
