For instance... Tomorrow, I'm cooking chicken that cooks for 50 minutes at 375, and a casserole that cooks for 45 minutes at 350. I've always struggled to try to figure stuff like this out, and can never find a good formula. Jauble? Anyone?

I think the easiest thing to do would be to cook both at 1100 degrees for 42 minutes.

the temp will probably matter more for the casserole, so go with that temp. you should be using a meat thermometer for the chicken anyways, and that temp difference won't make too much of a difference anyways. if you don't have an oven thermometer, there's no telling how accurate the oven temp is anyways.

True. Cooking the chicken a little longer at a lower temp won't hurt it (unless you cook it too long). A meat thermometer solves that problem.

Cook the chicken at 350 for 1:10 to 1:20. Check at 1:10 to make sure you don't over cook.

Best advice I've heard all day.

If you have a grill, I'd cook the chicken on that.

Go to Boston Market, buy both. Problem solved.

this happens to me all of the time. These temps aren't that far apart. If it is 350 and 400, I go with 375....I take the mean of them and then I just check on the food more often than normal.

That's why I love my convention oven. 2 ovens rock.

Nate has the better advice, but as many have stated a thermometer works wonders. I have a Pyrex thermometer that has a temp probe that reaches into the oven. I love it.
