2.5-6.0 Ibs. Start with fat side up.
After each stage of defrost cycle, turn over and shield the warm portions with
aluminum foil.

0.5-4.0 Ibs. After each stage of defrost cycle, rearrange and if there are warm of thawed portions,
shield with small flat pieces of aluminum foil. Remove any that are nearly defrosted.
Stand, covered 10-15 minutes.
0.5-3.0 Ibs. Remove any thawed pieces after each stage.

2.5-6.0 Ibs. Remove giblets before freezing poultry. Start with breast side down.

0.5-3.0 Ibs. After each stage of defrost cycle, if there are warm or thawed portions, rearrange or
remove, or shield with small flat pieces of aluminum foil.
Stand, 10-15 min.
Check foods when oven signals. After final stage, small sections may still be icy. Let stand to continue thawing. Do not
defrost until all ice crystals are thawed.
Shielding roasts and steaks prevents cooking from occurring before the center of the food is defrosted. Use small
smooth strips of aluminum foil to cover edges and thinner sections of the food.
