New style roast with metal clips at both ends can be kept in refrigerator unopened for up to 30 days. Old style with red or white plastic tape on top can be stored unopened in the refrigerator up to 5 days.



If you are cooking a frozen roast, run under warm water for 1 minute before removing casing.

DO NOT thaw or cook Roast in microwave.


Carefully remove plastic casing using sharp scissors or sharp knife. Remember to cut away from your fingers.



Remove roast from plastic casing.

 


Place roast either in tightly covered casserole dish or aluminum foil with veggies(optional but a very nice touch).

We suggest:

1 Stuffed Tofurky Roast
2 potatoes, quartered and peeled
2 large carrots split down the middle and cut into 2” pieces
1 onion quartered and peeled


Pour baste over roast and vegetables.

Tofurky Baste - option 1:

1/8 cup orange juice
1/8 cup soy sauce
1 Tablespoon sweetener of your choice.

Tofurky Baste - option 3:
1 tablespoon apricot jam or spread
3 tablespoons soy sauce

Thoroughly cover roast and veggies with 1/2 of the baste and pour over roast and veggies.

Cover tightly or wrap tightly in foil and cook in 350F oven for 1 hour & 15 minutes (3 hours and 15 minutes if cooking frozen roast).

Then open foil or casserole and pour remaining baste over roast. Cover and cook for another 10 minutes.
