Set the timer to 93 minutes

How to use the online timer

Low and slow cooking rewards patience, and 93 minutes is a realistic stretch for a cut of meat that needs time to break down properly rather than staying tough. Set the timer once the oven's up to temperature, check in occasionally rather than opening the door every ten minutes, and let the last hour do the work of turning something ordinary into something worth the wait. Good braises can't be rushed.

There's no setup beyond pressing Start, and the countdown handles the rest on its own from that point. Since it runs inside the browser, keep the tab open for the timer to keep an accurate count; you can switch to other tabs in the meantime, but closing this one out resets things. When the countdown hits zero, a sound plays so you're not stuck staring at the numbers.

A mechanical timer needs to be wound and a phone timer needs the phone unlocked, but this one just needs the page you already have open. It sits inside your browser, ready whenever you are, and it's the same tool whether you're on a laptop or a tablet in the kitchen. Free, with nothing to install or sign into, it's built to get out of your way and count. Set a timer for 93 minutes, set the timer to 93 minutes, start a 93 minutes timer — it is the same countdown either way.
