Always use the broiler pan and rack that comes with
your oven. It is designed to minimize smoking and
spattering by trapping the
lower part of the pan.
For steaks and chops, slash fat evenly around the
outside edges of the meat. To slash, cut crosswise
through outer fat surface just to the edge of the meat.
Use tongs to turn the meat over to prevent piercing
the meat and losing juices.
If desired, marinate meats or chicken before
broiling. Or brush with barbecue sauce last
5 to 10 minutes only.
