Broil
Use the BROIL feature to cook meats that require direct expo-
sure to radiant heat for optimum browning results.
Should an oven fire occur,
close the door
. 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 and water
can cause a grease fire to spread possibly causing personal in-
jury.
Always use pot holders or oven mitts
when working with a hot ov-
en. When broiling, the oven interior, oven racks and cooktop will
become
hot
enough to cause burns.
DO NOT
use the broiler
pan without the insert.
DO NOT
cover the broil pan / insert with
aluminum foil; the exposed grease could ignite.
To prevent food from contacting the broil element and to prevent
grease splattering, use the broil pan and insert when broiling.
•
For optimum browning results, allow the oven to preheat for
5-6 minutes before placing meat in the oven. To avoid
burning food, watch the food carefully when broiling and
turn meat when needed.
•
Use the recommended pans and oven rack positions for
the type and amount of meat being prepared.
See Broiling
Table on the next page.
Recommended broiling times
Use the broiling table (
Table 1
)
for approximate recommended
broiling times for the types of meat listed. Depending on the
type, the thickness, and the desired doneness of meat, it might
be necessary to increase or decrease broiling times or adjust
the broiling pan to different rack positions. If the food you are
broiling is not listed in the table, follow the instructions provided
in your recipe and watch the broiling process closely.
