Broiling Guide

The oven door must be closed during broiling.

, Always use the broiler pan and grid that comes with

your range.._lt is designed to minimize smoking 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 juice&.

° 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 oven does not need to be preheated. 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 and

increasing cooking time given in this guide 11/2times

per side

The size, weight,
thickness, starting
temperature and your
preference of doneness
will affect broiling times
This guide is based on
meats at refrigerator
temperature.

of Agriculture says
"Rare beef is popular.
but you should know
that cooking it to only
t40°F (60°C) means
some food poisoning
organisms may
survive ."(Source:
