Broiling tips
n
Use the broiler pan and grid for
broiling. They are designed to dram
excess liquid and fat away from the
cooking surface to help prevent
spatter, smoke or 6re.
. If you broil small quantities, you
may want to use a small broiler pan.
They are available in the
housewares section of many
department stores.
n
For best broiling results, preheat at
BROIL for 5 minutes. Do not preheat
with broiler pan in place.
. Broiling rack position determines
how the burner cooks your food.
The lower the position, the more
broiler grid area covered. See
“Broiling
rack
position chart” in
next column for more information.
. To sear meat, place broiler pan at
one of the higher rack positions so
that meat is very near the flame.
. Small steaks may be broiled in the
higher rack positions.
. To cook large steaks and other thick
cuts of meat well done, move them
to a lower rack position after
searing.
. Refer to a broiling chart in a reliable
cookbook for correct broiling times.
. After broiling, remove the broiler
pan from the oven when you
remove the food. Drippings will
bake on the pan if it is left in the
heated oven.
FireHazard
. Place
meat the correct distanoa
from the burner.
Meat
placed too
close to the burner may spatter,
smoke, bum or catch fire during
broiling.
n To ensure adequate grease
drainage, do not use cookie
sheets or
similar pans for broiling.
Also, covering the broiler grid
with foil is not recommended.
Poor drainage of g-mase may
result in fire.
3. Before the broiler is turned on,
place food on broiler pan and
position the broiler pan at one of
the three levels. Refer to a reliable
cookbook for broiling chart.

Adjusting the oven

your old oven may have shifted
gradually without you noticing the
change. Your new oven is properly
adjusted to provide accurate
temperatures. But, when wmpared to
your old oven, the new design may give
you different results.
