• Always run your cooktop ventilation system or
vent hood during broiling.
• Keep the interior of your oven as clean as
possible. Leftover debris from prior meals can
burn or catch fire.
• Avoid fatty marinades and sugary glazes. Both of
these will increase the amount of smoke you
experience. If you would like to use a glaze,
apply it at the very end of cooking.
• If you are experiencing significant smoke with
any food item, consider:
- Lowering the broiler to the Lo setting.
Recommended Broiling Guide
The size, weight, thickness, starting temperature, and your preference of doneness will affect broiling
times.
This guide is based on meats at refrigerator temperature. For best results when broiling, use a pan
designed for broiling.

- Lowering the rack position to cook the food
farther away from the broiler.
- Using the Hi broil setting to achieve the level
of searing you desire, and then either
switching to the Lo broil setting, or switching
to the Bake function.
• As a rule, fattier cuts of meat and fish will
produce more smoke than leaner items.
• Adhere to the guidelines in the Recommended
Broiling Guide section whenever possible.
