BROILING GUIDE

Always use the broiler pan and rack that comes with your oven. It is designed to minimize smoking and spattering by trapping the juices in the shielded lower part of the pan.

Broiling should always be done with the oven door closed.

For steaks and chops, slash fat evenly around the outside edges of the meat. To slash, cut crosswise through the outer fat surface just to the edge of the meat. Use tongs to turn the meat over to prevent piercing the meat and losing the juices.

If desired, marinate meats or chicken 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 preheated. However, for very thin foods, or to increase browning, preheat if desired.

Use LO Broil to cook foods such as poultry or thick pork chops thoroughly without over-browning them.

Frozen steaks can be broiled by positioning the oven shelf at next lowest shelf position and increasing cooking time given in this guide 1 X times per side.
