Hello,
For Christmas I have learned I am cooking for an additional 14 (!) people for dinner, we are having lamb as the main roast.
My oven is not big enough to take a large joint of lamb in one piece but could take two smaller joints, one above the other.
My question is, aside from rotating periodically to make sure the cooking is relatively even, is the timing for (example) a single 4KG joint of lamb, the same as two 2kg joints? As once the oven gets back to temperature after the meat is put in, I think the cooking time is the same for any number of 2kg joints put in.
Does this make sense, and can anyone advise?
Many thanks,
