Need help on how to cook that meat?

For your reference we have provided meat preparation, handling safety and cooking suggestions in this manual. These recommendations are furnished by the USDA as well as several meat producer associations. See the individual sections for the information.

Broiling Hints

•Remove excess fat from meat before broiling. Cut edges of meat to prevent curling.

•Place food on a cold ungreased broiling pan. If pan is hot, food sticks.

•All food except fish should be turned at least one time. Begin broiling with skin side down.

•Season meat after it has browned.

•Broiling does not require preheating.

•Begin cooking using suggested rack levels in Broiling section to test broiler results. If food is not brown enough, cook on a higher rack position. If food is too brown, cook on a lower rack position.

•Oven door must be fully closed.
