Problems

OCCURRENCE POSSIBLE CAUSE / SOLUTION

broiling.

Oven door is closed. Door should be open during broiling.

Meat too close to the broiler unit. Reposition the rack to provide more

clearance between the meat and the broiler. Preheat broil element for

quick searing operation.

remaining fatty edges to prevent curling, but do not cut into the lean.

Grid on broiler pan wrong-side up. Grease does not drain into broiler pan.

Always place the grid on the broiler pan with the ribs up and the slots

down to allow grease to drip into the pan.

broiler pan without the grid or cover the grid with foil.

cleaning is necessary when broiling frequently. Old grease or food spatters

cause excessive smoking.
