BROILING GUIDE
• Always use the broiler pan and grid that comes with
your oven. It is designed to minimize smoking and
spattering by trapping juices in the shielded lower
part of the pan.
Broiling should always be done with the oven
door closed.
• For steaks and chops, slash the fat evenly around the
outside edges of the meat. To slash, cut crosswise
through 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.
• I
f 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 sides because dripping fat will soil
the oven bottom.
• The broiler does not need to be preheated. However,
for very thin foods, or to increase browning, preheat
if desired.
• Use LO Broil to cook foods such as poultry or thick
pork chops evenly without over-browning them.
• Frozen steaks can be broiled by positioning the oven
shelf at next lowest shelf position and increasing
cooking time given in this guide 1
1
2
times per side.
