Oven smokes excessively during broiling.

Meat too close to the broil burner. Reposition the rack to provide more clearance

 

between the meat and the broiler.

 

 

 

 

Meat not properly prepared. Remove excess fat from meat. Slash remaining fatty edges

 

to prevent curling, but do not cut into the lean.

 

 

 

 

Broiler pan used without grid or grid covered with foil. DO NOT use the broiler pan

 

without the grid or cover the grid with foil.

 

 

 

 

Broiler drawer needs to be cleaned. Excessive smoking is caused by a build up of grease

 

or food spatters. If the broiler is used often, clean on a regular basis.

 

 

 

 

Broiler drawer is open. Drawer/door should be closed when broiling.

 

 

Poor baking results.

Many factors affect baking results. Make sure the proper rack position is used. Center

 

food in the oven and space pans to allow air to circulate. Allow the oven to preheat to

 

the set temperature before placing food in the oven. Try adjusting the recipe's

 

recommended temperature or baking time.
