Cow Brllrs The Oregon Beef Council In Portland supplies the Cow -Belles with Information on beef They have provided us with a prochure entitled. "Beef and your Microwave." I'd like to pass on some recipes to you from that bro chure, and beef cooking in formation Cooking beef in a micro wave oven can In- done with confidence and enthusiasm. Because beef is basic to so many meals. It is important to understand the principles and tested methods of cooking it in a microwave. Defrosting in a microwave allows you to defrost beef quickly, neatly and without flavor loss. Follow directions in the oven manual and be sure to defrost slowly so the inside of the meat thaws be fore the outside begins to cook. Always allow for standing time between the end of the thawing cycle and the begin ning of the cooking cycle. Microwave ovens are great for reheating leftover beef; (hr is no moisture loss or reheated flavor. Use your microwave to cook ground beef quickly for use in recipes. It can be cooked in many shapes and forms such as meatballs, casseroles, meat loaves, patties, sauces and sandwiches. Next time you barbecue, partially cook extra beef steak or patties, then freeze. When ready to serve, unwrap beef and defrost in the microwave. Allow standing time, then cook quickly, just until done. The beef will taste like it was just barbecued. The colder beef and other recipe Ingredients are, and the "more food there Is in the microwave, the longer the cooking time. Most successful roasts for microwave cooking are bone NOTICE I tv?

Mike Currin is going Into the stale finals In second place in steer wrestling (he was the state winner last year) Just less, uniform in shape and tender. Suggested cuts are rib eye. top round, tip, or rump (rolled and tied). To cook, place roast on a microwave rack (or on two inverted saucers) in a rec tangular microwave dish. Then roast over halfway through cooking time. Generally a rare to medium degree of doneness produces the most popular result. De gree of doneness should al ways bo determined by a microwave thermometer, a conventional thermometer used outside the oven, or a microwave food probe. Con sult your oven manual for best rooking time and oven setting. Temperature is more accur ate than time in determining doneness. Browning occurs naturally after 12 minutes of cooking time. For additional brown ing, baste with soy sauce or Worcestershire sauce or a browning sauce. Alwavs allow a minimum standing time of 10 minutes outside the oven; internal temperature of roast in creases 10 15 degrees during standing time. Wrap the roast in foil for standing time.
