Tests indicate that low shrinkage and more juice no matter much as 25 per cent of the A family food budget is spent on meat. And most of the meat bought is in the form of roasts. To get the finest taste. the greatest tenderness and the most yield, there is only one way the family cook should roast meat--at the lowest possible temperature.

At how low a temperature should a roast be cooked? As low as practical. Sylvia Cover, an outstanding food authority and a professor at Texas A has just completed 8 study of meat cookery. Roasts were bought especially for their toughness and fibrous structure. Then they were put in an experimental oven and cooked for 24 hours at temperatures ranging from to Fahrenheit. The toughest, most fibrous roasts turned out tender and juicy, fit for any table.

It would certainly be impractical for any home cook to roast meat for 24 hours. But the professor's findings re-emphasize that the low. est possible temperature roasting makes meat tasty, more tender and results in the least amount of shrinkage. cooked at high temperature of roast cooked at low heat of registered internal heat of F. roast cooked at high heat while from the roast cooked at low temperature roasting results in less what fuel is used for cooking.

Reba Staggs, Director of the 1 De partment of Home Economics of the Livestock and Most Board, verifles this research in her statement, "No meat cookery re search has; been conducted which proves that cooking with one.
