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

[Sabra Ewing]

Yes, but if you are starting with the meat from a Raw state, it can be even harder to cook it in the microwave. When I buy meat at the grocery store, I will buy meat that is rare or undercooked so that when I heated up in the microwave, it will not be to dry.

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.
