BROILING TIPS
• Placing food on broil rack allows the drippings to flow into the bake pan/drip tray and helps
to prevent smoking from the broiler.
• For best results, thaw frozen meat, poultry and fish before broiling.
• If frozen steaks and chops are broiled, allow 1½ to 2 times the broiling time as required when
fresh.

• Trim excess fat from meat and score edges to prevent curling.
• Brush foods to be broiled with oil and season as desired before broiling.
• Fish fillets and steaks are delicate and should be broiled on bake pan/drip tray without the
broiler rack.
• There is no need to turn fish fillets during broiling. Carefully turn thick fish steaks midway
through broiling cycle.
• If broiler "pops" during broiling, reduce the temperature or lower the food in the oven.
• Wash bake pan/drip tray and clean inside of oven after each use
with non-abrasive cleaner and hot soapy water. Too much grease
accumulation will cause smoking (I).
