Broiling Informations
Broiling is a method of cooking tender cuts of meat by direct heat from the broil element of
the oven. Meats are placed on the broiling rack and the rack is placed under the broiling
element.
See the broiling instructions for main oven in the Setting Oven Controls section.
See side oven step-by-step instructions in the Setting Side Oven Control section.
Preheating
Preheating is suggested when searing rare steaks (remove the broiler pan before preheating;
food will stick if placed on hot metal.) To preheat, set the oven control(s) to BROIL as
instructed in the Setting Oven Controls section. Wait for the element to become red-hot,
usually about 2 minutes. Preheating is not necessary when broiling meats well-done.
To Broil
Broil on one side until the food is browned; turn and cook on the other side; season and
serve. Always pull rack out to the stop position before turning or removing food.
Determining Broiling Times
Broiling times vary; watch the food closely. Time not only depends on the distance from the
element, but on the thickness and age of meat, fat content and doneness preferred. The
first side usually requires a few minutes longer than the second. Frozen meats also require
additional time.
Broiling Tips
The broiler pan and its grid allow dripping grease to drain and be kept away from the high
heat of the broiler.
DO NOT use the pan without its grid. DO NOT cover the grid with foil. The exposed
grease could ignite.
Should an oven fire occur, close the oven door and turn off the oven. If the
fire continues, throw baking soda on the fire or use a fire extinguisher. DO NOT put water
or flour on the fire. Flour may be explosive.
Always pull oven rack out to the stop position before turning or removing food.
Broiler Clean-Up Tips:
• To make cleaning easier, line bottom of the broiler pan with aluminum foil. DO NOT
cover the broiler grid with foil.
• To prevent grease from baking on, remove the broiler pan from the oven as soon as
cooking is completed. Use hot pads because the broiler pan is extremely hot. Pour off
grease. Soak the pan in HOT, soapy water.
• Clean the broiler pan as soon as possible after each use. If necessary, use soap-filled steel
wool pads. Heavy scouring may scratch the grid.
