slow roast
Lengthy oven method
Slow roast is a cooking method using low heat over an extended period, typically several hours.
The technique breaks down tough connective tissue in meat, producing tender results: a slow-roasted pork shoulder.
As an adjective, it describes food prepared this way: slow-roast beef, slow-roast tomatoes.
The method suits cuts that would toughen under high heat.
