Broiling Guide
Broiling
1. Always use broiler pan and rack
that comes with your oven. It is
designed to minimize
smoking and
spattering by trapping juices in the
shielded lower part of the pan.
2. Oven door should be ajar for all
foods except chicken; there is a
special position on door which
holds door open correctly.
3. For steaks and chops, slash fat
evenly around outside edges of meat.
To slash, cut crosswise through
outer fat surface just to the edge of
the meat. Use tongs to turn meat
over to prevent piercing meat aim
losing juices.
4. If desired, marinate
meats or
chicken before broiling. Or bl-ush
with barbecue sauce last 5 to 10
minutes only.
5. When arrauging
food on pall
do not let fatty edges haug over
sides, which could soil oven with
fat &ipping.
6. Broiler does not need to be
preheated.
However,
for vel y thin
foods, or to increase browning,
preheat if desired.
7. Frozen Steaks can be
conventionally
broiled by
positioning the oven shelf at next
lowest shelf position and increasing
