Broilina Chart
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 most foods: 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 and ioosing juices.
4. If desired, marinate meats or chicken before broiling. Or,
brush with barbecue sauce last 5 to 10 minutes only.
5. When arranging food on pan, do not let fatty edges hang over
sides, Vt/hich could soil oven with fat dripping.
6
. Broiler does not need to be preheated. However, for very thin
foods or to increase browning, preheat if desired.
7. Frozen Steaks can be conventionally broiled by posi
tioning the oven shelf at next lowest shelf position and
Increasing cooking time given in this chart 1 Va times per side.
8
. If your range is connected to 208 Volts rare steaks may be
