Carving instructions-

1. Let the product ‘rest’ for between 20 and 30 minutes out of the oven, away from any heat with tin foil lightly draped over it.
2. Take a sharp thin bladed knife with a blade length of roughly 20cm
3. Ensure it is nice and sharp, either by using a stand alone sharpener or a steel.
4. Stand over the product and look directly down onto it. Use a carving fork in your ‘non-knife’ hand to hold the joint, and with the other, carve straight lines vertically through the breast meat and onto the plate.
5. You now have the idea… you are carving like a pro and you have earned that glass of wine!

Remove all packaging, weigh and place the Three Bird Roast in a large roasting tin and season with salt & pepper. Leave to settle for at least an house at room temperature. Pre-heat oven to 180c/355F or gas mark 5 (160c for fan assisted ovens). Calculate cooking time allowing 50 minutes perk kg (e.g. a 2.5kg joint would take approximately 2 hours and 5 minutes & a 4.5kg joint would take approximately 3 hours and 45 minutes).  Loosely cover with aluminium foil and place in the middle of the oven. Roast the joint for the calculated time, basting occasionally with the pan juices. 20 minutes before the end, remove the aluminium foil and continue to cook until the skin becomes crispy. Ensure that the centre of the roast is piping hot and the juices run clear. A minimum core temperature of 75c is recommended. Allow the roast to rest for 15 minutes before carving. Please not these are guidelines and ovens may vary. Always ensure the centre of the joint is piping hot before serving.

Once defrosted use within minimum 5 days.
