Broiling Guidelines

1. Open the door to the Broil Stop position (open about 4 in.
[10 cm]).
2. Use the broiler pan and grid for broiling. They are designed to
drain excess liquid and fat away from the cooking surface to
help prevent spatter and smoke.
3. To make sure juices drain well, do not cover the grid with foil.
4. Turn food only once during broiling. Using tongs to turn
meats prevents loss of juices. Use MINUTE TIMER for timing
each side.
5. The surface of the food should be at least 3 in. (7.4 cm) away
from the broil element.
6. For steaks and chops, slash fat evenly, at 2 in. (5 cm)
intervals, around the outside edges of meat to prevent
curling.
7. Meats and poultry can be marinated before broiling. Brush
foods with barbecue sauce only during the last 5 to 10
minutes of broiling.
8. Place food on a cold pan to prevent sticking. If the rack is hot,
grease it or grease the food.
9. After broiling, remove the pan from the oven when removing
the food. Drippings will bake on the pan if left in the heated
oven, making cleaning more difficult.
