Broil King POV-003 Manuel D’Utilisation

The first and most important step will be: Have your new oven connected to the proper power source. If 

there is any doubt about the proper power or the connections, have the oven installed by a qualified 
electrician according to your local codes. 

 

Use this cooking guide to help determine which time and temperature works best for your specific food 

items. If your specific product isn’t addressed, you will probably find something similar.  

You’ll find many helpful hints in this cooking guide. Our aim is to help you use your BroilKing Manual 

Convection Oven to its fullest, rather than teach you how to cook.  

 

The BroilKing Manual Convection Ovens work on the principle of moving air. This air movement 

removes the “Hot Spots” so we get very even browning, rapid preheats (10 minutes), and faster cooking.  
 
Here are some basic do’s and don’ts and guidelines for convection cooking: 

♦ 

Use pans that have sides no higher than a common sheet pan. 

♦ 

Preheat the oven to approximately 40º-50ºF above your baking temperature.  

♦ 

After loading your product, remember to reset the oven to the desired baking temperature. 

♦ 

If you notice uneven cooking, set the oven temperature down 25º-30ºF. Let the product tell you if it 
needs more or less heat. 

♦ 

Aluminum foil can get pulled into the fan and cause damage. 

♦ 

Don’t overload the oven. 

♦ 

Maintain a minimum 2” between the product being cooked and the next shelf. Remove shelves if 
necessary. 

♦ 

Your BroilKing Convection Oven is a powerful tool, so don’t hesitate to utilize its full capacity.  

♦ 

Keep your oven clean. Wipe up spills as they occur. Never allow grease to build up on the interior of 
the oven, or collect on the bottom of the cooking cavity. 

♦ 

Frozen products draw more heat from the oven and may require a longer recovery time. 

♦ 

When roasting meats we suggest using a cooking rack to elevate the product and facilitate even 
roasting. Smaller cuts such as boneless chicken breasts, or seafood portions may be baked directly on 
the pan if desired. 

♦ 

Lower temperatures will reduce shrinkage and save money with all of your roasted meat products. 

♦ 

Higher geographical elevations will often affect cooking time and temperature parameters.  

 

Have fun and experiment with your new BroilKing Convection Oven. Your times and temperatures will vary 
with the different products you prepare. Refer to this BroilKing Cooking Guide for direction. 
•  Cookies 

Baking Temperature 
One of the most common items baked in your BroilKing Convection Oven will be cookies. There are 
dozens of cookie manufacturers, and their products all have different baking characteristics. Most of the 
cookie recipes suggest a baking temperature of 325º - 350ºF. "Lower is better”. Over the years we have 
found that cookies bake best in a preheated oven at about 285º - 300ºF, assuming a 1.5 ounce cookie 
from refrigerated/frozen dough. By baking at a lower temperature, they tend to remain higher after 
cooling and produce a more eye appealing finished product. Bake for about 12-18 minutes, depending on 
what you think is the perfect cookie. 

 

 

♦ 

Lower the temperature for larger cookies. 

♦ 

Cookies bake from the outside in...so to make picture perfect cookies we have to consider two 
variables before we begin baking, in any oven, or we may not be happy with our results. These two 
factors come into play mostly when we make cookies from "scratch", (but they apply to all cookies): 

The temperature of the dough 

ƒ

 

Room temperature dough will spread out more than frozen or refrigerated dough.
