Broiling tips
Use the broiler pan and grid for broiling.
They are designed to drain excess liquid
and grease away from the cooking surface
to help prevent spatter or smoke.
If you broil small quantities, you may
want to use a small broiler pan. They are
available in the housewares section of
many department stores.
Do not cover the broiler grid with foil.
To ensure adequate grease drainage, do
not use cookie sheets or similar pans for
broiling.
Place food about 3 inches or more from
the broil burner.
For best broiling results, preheat at HI
for 5 minutes. Do not preheat with broiler
pan in place.
Broiling rack position determines how
the burner cooks your food. The lower the
position, the more broiler grid area cov-
ered. See “Broiling rack position chart” at
right for more information.
To sear meat, place broiler pan at one of
the higher rack positions.
Thin (
3
4
 inch) steaks may be broiled in
the higher rack positions.
To cook thick (1
1
2
 inch) steaks and other
thick cuts of meat well done, start cooking
on a lower rack position or move them to a
lower rack position after searing.
After broiling, remove the broiler pan
from the oven when you remove the food.
Drippings will bake on the pan if you leave
it in the heated oven.
