Basting is a simple technique that does not require any special tools.

You can purchase a baster, which looks like a large eye dropper,
to make the job easier.

While cooking the meat or poultry, spoon or baste the
liquid used in the recipe over the meat every half an hour.

Basting liquids can include pan drippings, stock, marinades or sauces.
