Broiling Broiling uses direct radiant heat to cook food. The lower the temperature, the slower the cooking. Thicker cuts and unevenly shaped pieces of meat, fish and poultry may cook better at lower broiling temperatures. ■ For best results, use a broiler pan and grid (not provided). It is designed to drain juices and help avoid spatter and smoke. If you would like to purchase a broiler pan, one may be ordered. See "Assistance or Service" section to order. ■ For proper draining, do not cover the grid with foil. The bottom of the pan may be lined with aluminum foil for easier cleaning. ■ Trim excess fat to reduce spattering. Slit the remaining fat on the edges to avoid curling. ■ Select 550°F (288°C) broil for most broiling. Select 450°F (232°C) broil for low-temperature broiling of longer cooking foods such a poultry to avoid over browning. ■ Pull out oven rack to stop position before turning or removing food. Use tongs to turn food to avoid the loss of juices. Very thin cuts of fish, poultry or meat may not need to be turned. ■ Before broiling, position rack according to the Broiling Chart. Position food on grid in the broiler pan, then place it in the center of the oven rack. Close the oven door and set the control. ■ After broiling, remove the pan from the oven when removing the food. Drippings will bake on the pan if left in the heated oven, making cleaning more difficult. To Broil: 1. Place the food in the oven, preheating is not necessary. 2. Close the oven door. 3.
