OPERATION
Broiling
Broiling is cooking by direct heat from
the Broil Burner. The oven door should
remain closed 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,
__ . ........... .............. ,_,;,_,_
/.l|l"'_ If foil ,s used, it must
[ _,l be molded t,ghtly to
_IE_/the gr,d 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 oven.
Storing or
forgetting a soiled broiler
pan in the oven is a
potential smoke or fire
hazard.
The US Department of Agriculture
notes that meat cooked rare is popular,
but meat cooked to only 140°F (rare)
means that some poisoning organisms
may survive.
The closer you place foods to the broil
element, the faster foods brown on the
outside yet remain red to pink in the
center.
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
aloneness of the meat will affect broiling.
