Grilling Meats and Poultry

• you may select either closed grilling or open grilling for most meats
and poultry.
• very thin meats, such as bacon, are best suited to open grilling.
Closed Grilling
(sandwiched between the grill plates):
Step 1: Insert the removable plates onto the grill, choosing the
side with the grill grates.
Step 2: Plug the power cord of the closed grill into a suitable
electrical outlet. The power indicator light will illuminate.
Step 3: Turn the Position Control Knob to "Closed". The grill
will begin to preheat.
Step 4: Turn the Temperature Control Knob to the desired
temperature. Refer to the Cooking Guide for recommendations. The
Ready light will illuminate as soon as the grill is preheated.
Step 5: Using the handle, open the grill lid until it rests at the
top position (at about 90 degrees). Insert the meat or poultry using heat
resistant nonmetal utensils. Pull the handle down to firmly close the lid and
grill for the recommended time.
Step 6: Check the internal temperature of the cooked meat or
poultry with a meat thermometer to verify the level of doneness.
Open Grilling
(on a single open grill surface):
Step 1: Insert the removable plates onto the grill, choosing the
side with the grill grates.
Step 2: lift the handle of the grill and press the Lid Switch to release
the grill and allow it to open completely and lie flat, parallel with the
countertop.
