Broil
Broiling is a method of cooking tender cuts of meat by direct heat under the
broil element of the oven. Be sure you center your broiler pan directly under
the broil element for best results.
Arrange oven rack while oven is still cool. Position the rack as needed.
The broiler pan and its insert allow dripping grease to drain and be kept away
from the high heat of the broiler. DO NOT use the pan without its insert. DO
NOT cover the insert with foil. The exposed grease could ignite.
Should an oven fire occur, close the oven door and turn off
the oven. If the fire continues, throw baking soda on the fire or use a fire
extinguisher. DO NOT put water or flour on the fire. Flour may be explosive
and water can cause a grease fire to spread and cause personal injury.
