Meat Roasting Time Calculator

Confirm with a meat thermometer, then rest the joint before carving.

Estimate how long to roast a joint of beef, pork, or lamb based on its weight and how you like it cooked. Roasting guides are usually given as minutes per unit of weight plus a fixed extra amount, and this calculator applies those common rules for you: choose the meat, enter the weight, pick a doneness, and it returns an estimated oven time along with the target internal temperature you should confirm with a meat thermometer. Times assume a preheated oven around 180 C (350 F) and a joint taken from cool, not frozen. A thermometer is the real test of doneness, so use the minutes as a plan and the internal temperature as the truth, and always rest the meat before carving. Everything is worked out locally in your browser.
