Washing Up
I had a free sample of a Reynolds oven bag that I was dying to use.
Had 4 pound pork loin roast which I dusted with a little flour, salt and pepper, and placed the roast in the oven bag with sliced onions, garlic cloves and mushrooms. Pre-heated the oven to 450, per directions, sealed the bag and put it in a roasting pan.
I did put a probe thermometer in the roast and set it to 143, just to make sure the roast didn't overcook.
Well, it was just okay. No golden, crispy fat on top of the roast, of course. The mushrooms were a little chewy. The bag leaked, so clean-up was "not a snap".
I wouldn't buy these things - I like roasted meats and vegs better than steamed.
Has anyone had success with oven bags? Should I have done something differently?
