## How to Scale Cooking Time
### Formula
**Minutes Per Pound = Original Time / Original Weight**
**New Time = Minutes Per Pound x New Weight**
This provides a linear estimate. For very large roasts, cooking time per pound may decrease slightly because the oven maintains a constant temperature.
### Important
Always use a meat thermometer. Time estimates are guidelines; internal temperature is the definitive measure of doneness.

计算示例
A 4 lb roast takes 120 minutes. How long for a 6 lb roast?
- Minutes per pound: 120 / 4 = 30 min/lb.
- New time: 30 x 6 = 180 minutes (3 hours).
- Use a meat thermometer to verify doneness.
