Broiling is cooking by
direct heat from the
upper element. The oven
door should remain open
to the broil stop position
during broiling.
It is not necessary to
preheat the oven when
broiling. Use the broiler pan and grid
that came with your range. Both are
designed for proper drainage of fat
and liquids,
i_lf foil is used it must be
molded tightly to the grid
and slits cut into the foil to
match those of the grid. This
allows fats and liquids to drain
into the broiler pan, preventing
fire and excessive smoke.
Always remove the pan and
grid from the oven. t_
Storing or forgetting
a soiled broiler pan in
the oven is a potential smoke
or fire hazard.
The U.S. Department of Agriculture
recommends to cook meat and
poultry thoroughly--meat to at least
an INTERNAL temperature of 160°F
and poultry to at least an INTERNAL
temperature of 180°F. Cooking to
these temperatures usually protects
against food-borne illness.
The closer you place foods to the
broil element, the faster foods brown
on the outside yet remain red to pink
in the center.
Moving meats away from the element
will allow the meat to cook to the
center while browning on the
outside. Cook side 1 at least 2
minutes longer than side 2. If your
oven is connected to 208 volts, you
may want to use a higher rack
position and/or broil foods longer.
The size, weight, thickness, starting
temperature, and your preference of
the doneness of the meat will affect
broiling. The chart below is based on
meats at refrk erator temperature.
