Broiling Information

Broiling is a method of cooking tender cuts of meat by direct heat from the broil element of the oven. Meats are placed on the broiling rack and the rack is placed under the broiling element.

See the broiling instructions for main oven in the Setting Oven Controls section. See side oven step-by-step instructions in the Setting Side Oven Control section.

Preheating

Preheating is suggested when broiling rare steaks (remove all utensils before preheating). To preheat, set the oven control to BROIL. Wait for the element to become red-hot, usually about 2 minutes. Preheating is not necessary when broiling meats well-done.

than the	second.		Frozen	meats also		require additional	time.		..............

Broiler Clean-UpTips:

•To make cleaning easier, line bottom of the broiler pan with aluminum foil. DO NOT cover the broiler grid with foil.

•To prevent grease from baking on, remove the broiler pan from the oven as soon as cooking is completed. Use hot pads because the broiler pan is extremely hot. Pour off grease. Soak the pan in HOT, soapy water.

•Clean the broiler pan as soon as possible after each use. If necessary, use soap- filled steel wool pads. Heavy scouring may scratch the grid.
