GE JTP14 Oven User Manual


 
BROILING GUIDE
• Always use the broiler pan and rack that comes
with your oven. It is designed to minimize smoking
and spattering by trapping the juices in the shielded
lower part of the pan.
The oven door should be open to the broil
stop position.
• For steaks and chops, slash fat evenly around the
outside edges of the meat. To slash, cut crosswise
through the outer fat surface just to the edge of the
meat. Use tongs to turn the meat over to prevent
piercing the meat and losing the juices.
• If desired, marinate meats or chicken before
broiling, or brush with barbecue sauce last 5 to
10 minutes only.
When arranging food on the pan, do not let fatty edge:
hang over the sides. These could soil the oven bottom.
• The broiler does not need to be preheated.
However, for very thin foods, or to increase
browning, preheat if desired.
• Frozen steaks can be broiled by positioning the oven
shelf at next lowest shelf position and increasing
cooking time given in this guide 1 ½ times per side.
• Use LO Broil to cook foods such as poultry or thick
pork chops thoroughly without over-browning them.
If your oven is connected to 208 volts, rare steaks
may be broiled by preheating the broiler and
positioning the oven shelf one position higher.
