Do not cover the entire broiler grid with
foil. Poor drainage of hot fat may cause
a broiler fire.
If a fire starts, close the oven door and turn controls
off. if fire continues,
throw baking soda on the fire.
Do not put water on the fire.
Broiling is cooking by direct heat from the broil element.
Tender cuts of meat or marinated
meat should
be se-
lected for broiling.
For best results steaks should be at
least 3/4" thick.
After placing food on the broiler pan, put the pan on an
oven rack in the proper
position°
The recommended
rack position and cooking time can be found in the chart
below.
The closer the food is to the b roll element, the faster the
meat browns on the outside, yet stays red to pink in the
center° Moving the meat farther away from the element
lets the meat cook to the center while browning
outside.
Side one should
be cooked
1 - 2 minutes
longer than
side two.
