OPERATION
Broiling
Broiling is cooking
by direct heat
from the upper element. The oven
door should remain opened
to the
broil stop position during broiling.
It is not necessary
to preheat the oven
when broiling.
Use the broiler pan and
grid that came with your oven. Both
are designed
for proper drainage
of
fat and liquids.
r_
If foil is used, it must
be molded
tightly
to
the grid and slits cut
into the foil to match
those
of the grid. This allows
fats and liquids to drain into
the broiler
pan, preventing
fire
and excessive
smoke.
Always
remove
the pan and A
grid from
the
oven.

The U.S. Department
of Agriculture
recommends
to cook meat and
poultry thoroughly--meat
to at least
an INTERNAL
temperature
of 160°F
and poultry to at least an INTERNAL
temperature
of 180°F. Cooking to
these temperatures
usually protects
against
food-borne
illness.
The closer you place foods to the
broil element,
the faster foods brown
on the outside yet remain red to pink
in the center.
Moving meats away from the element
will allow the meat to cook to the
center while browning
on the outside.
Cook side 1 at least 2 minutes longer
than side 2. If your oven is connected
to 208 volts, you may want to use a
higher rack position
and/or broil
foods longer.
The size, weight, thickness,
starting
temperature,
and your preference
of
the doneness
of the meat will affect
broiling.
This chart is based on meats
at refrigerator
temperature.
