The rate of heat penetration depends on the type of cookery used ( Seideman and Durland 1984 ). For example steam cookery or other moist heat methods of cookery will result in faster heat penetration (McCrae and Paul 1974) than dry cooking methods (Buck et al. 1979). Drummond and sun (2006) reported moist heat methods of cooking resulted in more rapid surface temperature increases compared with dry heat cooking However , surface browning , which contributes to the aroma of cooked meat , did not develop the same when moist heat cookery was used.
