USING THE SEAR STATION
®
Your Weber
®
gas barbecue includes a sear burner for searing meats such as steak,
poultry parts, fish, and chops.
Searing is a direct grilling technique which browns the surface of the food at a high
temperature. By searing or browning both sides of the meat you will create a more
desirable flavor by caramelizing the food surface. Searing will also enhance appearance
of the meat with sear marks from the cooking grates. This along with the contrast of
textures and flavors can make food more interesting to the palate.
The Sear Station
®
burner has an OFF, START/HI, and LOW control setting that works
with the Left and Center burners. With the sear and adjacent burners you can effectively
sear meats while using the Right burner cooking area for grilling with moderate heat.
Before searing you should turn all of the main burners on HI for 15 minutes to preheat
the grill. Always grill with the lid closed to allow for maximum heat and to avoid flare ups.
Once the grill is preheated, turn the Right burner off or down. Leave the Left and Center
burners on HI and ignite the Sear Station
®
burner.
Place the meat directly over the Sear Station
®
. You will sear each side anywhere from
1 to 4 minutes, depending on the type of meat and thickness. You may turn the food a
quarter turn to make crossing sear marks (1) before you sear the other side in the same
manner.
Once you are done searing you can finish grilling by moving the meat to a more
moderate heat over the Right burner to achieve the desired doneness.
As you gain experience in using your Sear Station
®
, we encourage you to experiment
with different searing times to find results that work best for your taste.
