Using this Nella NET18 meat netting is a breeze. First, select the appropriate amount of netting from the 150 - foot roll. Then, place your meat, like a stuffed chicken breast or sausage, inside the netting. The elastic nature of the netting will naturally conform to the shape of the meat. When it comes to cooking, you can smoke or roast the meat with the netting on. Just remember, the maximum temperature it can handle is 450°F, so don't exceed this limit. After cooking, gently pull the netting away from the meat, and it should come off easily. For maintenance, keep the netting in a cool, dry place. If it gets dirty, you can wipe it down with a damp cloth. This will ensure it stays in good condition for your next cooking adventure.
