Tips for Using Cook & Hold
• Recommended holding temperature is 140-150°F
(60-65°C). At higher temperatures a gradual dehy-
dration of proteins takes place, the weight of the
meat is reduced and the meat becomes less juicy.
• With a hold temperature of 140-150°F (60-65°C), the
meat can be taken out immediately before carving.
• After being held for 5-6 hours shrinkage increases.
