Due to the variety of of meats and cuts available, you may select alternate rack positions based
on personal preferences of doneness and external searing. For optimal searing, preheat oven
for 5-10 minutes.
The size, weight, thickness, starting temperature and your preference of doneness will affect
broiling times. This guide is based on meats at refrigerator temperature.

The U.S. Department of Agriculture says "Rare beef is popular, but you should know that cooking it to only 140°F means
some food poisoning organisms may survive." (Source: Safe Food Book. Your Kitchen Guide. USDA Rev. June 1985.)
You can use aluminum foil to line the broiler
pan and broiler grid. However, you must mold
the foil tightly to the grid and cut slits in it just
like the grid.
