Broil/Convection Broil

Tips for Broil

Preheating the Broiler

It is recommended that you preheat the broil element before starting to cook. Preheat until the "PREHEATING" light turns off.

Getting the Best Results

•Defrost food before broiling.

•Door is to be closed during broiling.

•Steaks should be more than 1" thick if rare meat is desired. Use convection broil if steaks are over 1-1/2 inches thick. Convection broil available in large oven.

•Turn foods over only once, after half the total cooking time. It is not necessary to turn very thin foods (ham slices, fillets of fish, etc.). Liver slices must be turned over regardless of thickness.

•Use a minute timer. Set it for the minimum time to check the food.

•Center foods directly under the broiling element for best browning.

Rack Positions

Before turning on the oven, place the rack in the desired position. After preheating the broiler, center the broil pan under the broil element.

•#5 — Use this rack position when broiling beef steaks, ground meat patties, ham steak and lamb chops 1 inch or less in thickness. Also, use when top browning foods.

•#4 — Use this rack position when broiling meat 1-1/8 inches or more in thickness, fish, poultry, pork chops, ham steaks 1 inch or more in thickness.

•#3 — Use this rack when broiling chicken quarters or halves.

Utensils

•The porcelain enamel two-piece broil pan is included with the range. DO NOT cover the slotted grid (top) with aluminum foil.

•Use metal or glass-ceramic bakeware when top browning casseroles, main dishes, or bread.

•DO NOT use heat-proof glass or pottery. This type of glassware cannot withstand the intense heat of the broil element.
