Fire Hazard

Place meat the correct distance from the element. Meat placed too close to the element may spatter, smoke, burn or catch fire during broiling.

To ensure adequate grease drainage, do not use cookie sheets or similar pans for broiling. Also, covering the broiler grid with foil is not recommended. Poor drainage of grease may result in fire. If foil is used, cut slits in foil to line up with all openings in broiler grid. Grease can then drain away and cool in pan.
