Preparation
As soon as possible, after you’ve collected your Royal Roast or it has been delivered, remove all packaging and store in a refrigerator. The giblets will come to you vacuumed packed and they should also be stored in the refrigerator. Cook the Royal Roast on or before the use by date shown on the label.

Squeeze the juice of 2 oranges over the meat and surround with fresh thyme. Place the Roast in foil and cook on a rack in a roasting pan. Toward the end of cooking remove the foil to finish browning.

Suggested Cooking Times
This is a guideline only. Approximately 50 minutes per kg plus 20 minutes extra.
Then allow joint to relax for 30-40 minutes in a low oven. This allows the meat to settle and makes it easier to carve.
A good quantity of dripping will collect in the pan (between 1-2 pints) and this should be tipped carefully into a container 2 –3 times during cooking. The dripping is excellent for roasting potatoes and parsnips and makes very light pastry. It can also be poured into small containers for freezing.
Carving suggestions
With a very sharp knife, cut the joint in half at the middle and carve towards each end, as opposed to starting at the end.
You will find this helps keep the layered meats together.
