Always use the broiler pan and grid that comes with
your oven. It is designed to minimize smoking and
spattering by trapping juices in the shielded lower
part of the pan.
For steaks and chops, slash fat evenly around the
outside edges of the meat. To slash, cut crosswise
through the outer fat surface just to the edge of the
meat. Use tongs to turn meat over to prevent
piercing the meat and losing juices.
If desired, marinate meats or chicken before
broiling, or brush with barbecue sauce last 5 to
When arranging food on the pan, do not let fatty
edges hang over the sides because the dripping fat
will soil the oven.
