A meat thermometer or cooking thermometer is a thermometer used to measure the internal temperature of meat, especially roasts and steaks, and other cooked foods. The degree of "doneness" of meat or bread correlates closely with the internal temperature, so that a thermometer reading indicates when it is cooked as desired.
For example, a cool oven has temperature set to 200 °F (90 °C), and a slow oven has a temperature range from 300–325 °F (150–160 °C). A moderate oven has a range of 350–375 °F (180–190 °C), and a hot oven has temperature set to 400–450 °F (200–230 °C).
Gas mark 1 is 275 degrees Fahrenheit (135 degrees Celsius). [citation needed] Oven temperatures increase by 25 °F (14 °C) for each gas mark step. Above Gas Mark 1, the scale markings increase by one for each step. Below Gas Mark 1, the scale markings halve at each step, each representing a decrease of 25 °F (14 °C).
Set the pressure oven temperature to 450°F and the function to ROAST. Turn on the timer to preheat the oven. In a mixing bowl, toss together all of the cut-up vegetables and the garlic cloves.
The temperatures indicated above are the peak temperatures in the cooking process, so the meat should be removed from the heat source when it is a few degrees cooler. The meat should be allowed to "rest" for a suitable amount of time (depending on the size of the cut) before being served.
