Broiling is cooking by direct
heat from the upper element.
The oven door should remain
opened to the broil stop lock
position during broiling.
It is not necessary to preheat the oven when
broiling. Use the broiler pan and grid that
came with your range. Both are designed for
proper drainage of fat and liquids.
Foil must be molded tightly
to the grid and slits cut Into
the foil to match those of
the grid. This allows fats
and liquids to drain Into the
broiler pan, preventing fire
and excessive smoke.
Always remove the pan
and grid from the o ven.

Storing m forgetting
soiled broiler pan In the
oven is a potential
smoke or fire hazard.
® Choose tender cuts of meat at least 3/4’
thick for broiling.
® Trim the outer layer of fat; slit the edges to
keep meats from curling.
® Always use tongs to turn meats. Piercing
meat allows juices to escape.
® Salt the first side of meats just before
turning, the second side just before
sen/ing. Brush chicken and fish with butter
several times as they broil.
® Chicken and fish should be placed on the
grid skin side down. For fish, lightly grease
the grid to prevent sticking.
The closer you place foods to the broil
element, the faster foods brown on the outside
yet remain red to pink in the center.
The U.S. Department of Agriculture notes
that meat cooked rare is popular, but meat
cooked to only 14CPF (rare) means that some
poisoning organisms may survive.
Moving meats away from the element will allow
the meat to cook to the center while browning
on the outside. Using this positioning, cook
side 1 at least 2 minutes longer than side 2. If
your oven is connected to 208 volts, you may
want to use a higher rack position and/or broil
foods longer.
The size, weight, thickness, starting temperature
and your preference of the doneness of the meat
wilt affect broiling. This chart is based on
meats at refrigerator temperature.
