Abstract
Apparatus or device for the preparation of fowl which has been dressed, comprising a heat transfer member having an exterior configuration which substantially conforms to the interior cavity of the dressed fowl and which, when inserted into the cavity, makes substantially total contact with the interior wall such that when the heat transfer member, with fowl mounted thereon, is placed in a heated environment, the fowl is initially seared in the interior cavity and thereafter cooked for human consumption in accordance with the method prescribed herein.
Claims4
The method of preparing a previously dressed fowl for consumption, comprising the steps of:
- forming a heat transfer member along a horizontal axis, said member having an exterior surface, such that the exterior surface of said member substantially conforms to the cavity within a dressed fowl, by the removal of internal organs;
- preheating said heat transfer member to a predetermined temperature;
- inserting said member into the cavity of the fowl in such a manner that the exterior surface of said member makes substantial heat transferring contact with the wall of the cavity;
- placing the fowl, with said member inserted, into a heated environment, applying heat to the heat transfer member so as to cause the heat to uniformity transmit to the interior cavity wall of the fowl to thereby initially sear in juices, and continuously applying heat to the heat transfer member so as to cook the fowl from the interior while applying heat to the exterior of the fowl to cook the fowl for consumption.
