BROILING GUIDE
The oven and broiler colnpartlnent doors must be
closed during broiling.
• Always use the broiler pan and grid that comes with
your range. It is designed to minimize smoking and
spattering by trapping juices in the shielded lower
part of the pan.
• For steaks and chops, slash fat evenly around the
outside edges of the meat. To slash, cut crosswise
through the outer fat surface just to the edge of the
meat. Use tongs to turn the meat over to prevent
piercing the meat and losing juices.
• If desired, marinate meats or chicken before broiling.
Or brush with barbecue sauce last 5 to 10 minutes only.
• When arranging the food on the pan, do not let fatty
edges hang over the sides because dripping fat
could soil the oven.
• The broiler compartment does not need to be
preheated. However, for very thin foods, or to
increase browning, preheat if desired.
• Frozen steaks can be broiled by positioning the shelf
at the next lowest shelf position and increasing the
cooking time given in this guide 1½ times per side.
