Broiling Guide
The oven door must be closed during broiling.
. Always use the broiler pan and grid that comes with
your range. It is designed to minimize smoldng and
spattering by trapping juices in the shielded lower
part of the pan°
• 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 the meat and
losing juices_
• If desired, marinate meats or chicl_n before broiling.
Or brush with barbecue sauce last 5 to 10 minutes only_
• When arranging food on the pan, do not let fatty
edges hang over the sides because dripping fat could
soil the oven.
• The broiler does not need to be preheate& However,
for very thin foods, or to increase browning, preheat
if desired.
• Frozen steaks can be broiled by positioning the
broiler pan and grid at next lowest shelf position arid
increasing cooking time given in this guide 1_ times
per side.
