USING THE SEAR STATION

®
Your Weber gas grill includes a sear burner for searing meats such as steak, poultry
®
parts, fish, and chops.
Searing is a direct grilling technique which browns the surface of the food at a high
temperature. By searing or browning both sides of the meat, you will create a more
desirable flavor by caramelizing the food surface. Searing will also enhance appearance
of the meat with sear marks from the cooking grates. This, along with the contrast of
textures and flavors, can make food more interesting to the palate.
The Sear Station burner has an on or off control setting that works with the two
®
adjacent main burners. With the sear and adjacent burners, you can effectively sear
meats while using other cooking areas for grilling with moderate heat.
Before searing food, you should turn all of the main burners on HI for 15 minutes to
preheat the grill. Note: Always grill with the lid closed to allow for maximum heat and to
avoid flare-ups.
Once the grill is preheated, turn the outer burners off or down to low. Leave the center
two burners on HI and ignite the Sear Station
Place the meat directly over the Sear Station
one to four minutes, depending on the type and thickness of the meat. You may turn the
food a quarter turn to make crossing sear marks (1) before you sear the other side in
the same manner.
Once you are done searing the meat, you can finish grilling it by moving it to a more
moderate heat over the outside burners to achieve the desired doneness.
As you gain experience in using your Sear Station
with different searing times to find results that work best for your taste.
