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.<br><br><div id="AppleMailSignature">Sabra Ewing</div><div><br>On Apr 11, 2018, at 10:48 AM, Lighthouse via Small-Appliance-Cooking <<a href="mailto:small-appliance-cooking@nfbnet.org">small-appliance-cooking@nfbnet.org</a>> wrote:<br><br></div><blockquote type="cite"><div><meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=us-ascii"><meta name="Generator" content="Microsoft Word 15 (filtered medium)"><style><!--

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. <o:p></o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal">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.<o:p></o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal">When I do a hotdog, I thaw it in the microwave, and then brown it up in my toaster oven.
