Questions and Answers
Q. May I use aluminum foil to line the drip pan
and spatter shield?
A. You can use aluminum
foil
to line
your drip pan
and spatter shield. However, you must mold the
foil tightly to the spatter shield and cut slits in it
just like the spatter shield. Without the slits, the
foil will prevent fat and meat juices from draining
to the drip pan. The juices could become hot
enough to catch on fire. If you do not cut the
slits, you are frying, not broiling.
Q.
When
broiling,
is
it
necessary to always use
the
spatter shield-in the pan?
A. Yes. Using the spatter shield suspends the meat
over the pan. As the meat cooks, the juices fall
into the pan, thus keeping meat drier. Juices are
protected
by the
shield
and stay cooler, thus
preventing excessive spatter and smoking.
Q. Should I salt the meat before broiling?
A. No.
Salt
draws out the juices and allows them to
evaporate. Always salt after cooking.
Turn meat
with tongs; piercing meat with a fork also allows
juices to escape. When broiling poultry or fish,
brush each side often with butter.
Q. Why are my meats not turning out as brown as
they should?
A.
In some areas, the power (voltage) to the oven may
be low. In these cases, preheat the
broil
unit for 10
minutes before placing broiler pan assembly with
food in oven. Turn food
only
once during broiling.
Q. Do I need to grease my broiler spatter shield to
prevent meat from sticking?
A.
The spatter
shield
is designed to reflect broiler
heat, thus keeping the surface cool enough to
prevent meat sticking to the surface. However,
spraying the shield lightly before cooking with a
vegetable cooking spray will make cleanup easier.
