Broiling

BROILING GUIDE

The oven door 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 the 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 the juices.

• Use LO Broil to cook foods such as poultry or thick

pork chops thoroughly without over browning them.

• If desired, marinate meats or chicken before broiling.

Or brush with barbecue sauce last 5 to 10 minutes only.

• When arranging 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 next lowest shelf position and increasing cooking
