Using The Sear Zone - Weber Genesis II EX-335 Owner's Manual

Using the Sear Zone

Searing is a direct grilling technique used on meats,
such as steak, poultry parts, fish and chops. Searing
browns the surface of the food at a high temperature. By
searing both sides of the meat, you caramelize the food
surface, creating a more desirable flavor.

including the sear burner
ELECTRONIC IGNITION SYSTEM TO IGNITE THE
GRILL.
2) Preheat the grill with the lid closed and with all
burners on the start/high
3) After preheating, leave the sear burner control
knob and the adjacent burner control knobs in
the start/high position (A). The sear burner works
in tandem with adjacent burners (B). The remaining
burner(s) can be turned to off or low.
4) Place meat directly over the sear zone and close lid.
Sear each side anywhere from one to four minutes
(C), depending on the type and thickness of meat.
Once searing is complete, the meat can be moved
to moderate heat over and cooked to your desired
doneness.
Note: Always cook with the lid closed to achieve maximum
heat and to avoid flare-ups.
As you gain experience using the sear zone we
encourage you to experiment with different searing
times to find the results that work best for your taste.
