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.
/_/_ If 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. Storing or
forgetting a soiled
broiler pan in ,_ i

The U.S. Department of Agriculture
notes that meat cooked rare is
popular, but meat cooked to only
I40°F (rare) means that some food
poisoning organisms may survive.
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. This chart is based on
meats at refrigerator temperature.
