Broiling

Broiling uses direct radiant heat to cook food. The lower the
temperature, the slower the cooking. Thicker cuts and unevenly
shaped pieces of meat, fish and poultry may cook better at lower
broiling temperatures.
■
For best results, use a broiler pan and grid. They are
designed to drain juices and help avoid spatter and smoke.
If you would like to purchase a broiler pan, one may be
ordered. See "Assistance or Service" section to order. Ask for
Part Number 4396923.
■
For proper draining, do not cover the grid with foil. The
bottom of the pan may be lined with aluminum foil for easier
cleaning.
■ Trim excess fat to reduce spattering. Slit the remaining fat on
the edges to avoid curling.
■
Select HI/550°F (288°C) broil for most broiling. Select
LO/450°F (232°C) broil for low-temperature broiling of longer
cooking foods such as poultry to avoid overbrowning.
■ Pull out oven rack to stop position before turning or removing
food. Use tongs to turn food to avoid the loss of juices. Very
thin cuts of fish, poultry or meat may not need to be turned.
■ 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.
Before broiling, position rack according to the Broiling Chart.
Position food on grid in the broiler pan, then place it in the center
of the oven rack. Close the door.

the broil temperature setting to HI or LO.
NOTE: The broil temperature may be changed at any time by
pressing the Temp/Time "up" or "down" arrow pads until the
desired temperature is displayed and then START. Changing
the temperature once food is placed in the oven could affect
the preheat cycle.
