Cooking Food placement Broiling pan COOKING RECOMMENDATIONS Tips Allow at least 2 inches (5 cm) of space between bakeware for proper air circulation. Broiling / Roasting For best results when broiling, use a broil pan with a broil pan insert designed to drain the fat from the food, help avoid spatter, and reduce smoking. The broiler pan will catch grease spills, and the insert helps prevent grease splatters. If a broiler pan and insert are not supplied with this appliance, they may be purchased from Frigidaire.com. 11
