At the basket

  1. Trim away silver skin and coat the meat with the reference’s mustard-and-vinegar seasoning.
  2. Place in a preheated basket; cut crosswise only if needed to fit.
  3. Use the time as a check point; verify at least 145°F and rest 5 minutes before slicing.

Before you cook

  • The manufacturer cross-check is for the Cosori Iconic and uses different conditions. This guide follows the linked recipe, not an average of the two sources.
  • Do not substitute pork loin. The source mentions removing meat slightly early for carryover; this guide instead uses the official minimum before removal.
  • The recipe timing may finish before the safety check shown here is met. Continue cooking as needed; the displayed time is not a verified safe endpoint.
