Broiling Guide
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.)
How to Set the Oven for Broiling
IMPORTANT:
To avoid possible burns, place
the racks in the desired position before you
turn the oven on.
Place the meat or fish on a broiler grid
in a broiler pan designed for broiling.
Follow suggested rack positions in the
Broiling Guide.
The oven door
must
be closed during
broiling.
Touch the
BROIL HI/LO
pad once for
HI Broil.
To change to
LO Broil,
touch the
BROIL HI/LO
pad again.
Use
LO Broil
to cook foods such as poultry
or thick cuts of meat thoroughly without
over-browning them.
Touch the
START/ON
pad.
When broiling is finished, touch the
CLEAR/OFF
pad.
Serve the food immediately, and leave the
pan outside the oven to cool during the
meal for easiest cleaning.
The oven has 7 rack positions.
