Using the grid suspends the meat over thepan. As the meat cooks, the juices fall into thepan, thus keeping meat drier. Juices are protectedby the grid and stay cooler, thus preventingexcessive spatter and smoking.Q. Should I salt the meat before broiling?A. No. Salt draws out the juices and allows them toevaporate. Always salt after cooking. Turn meatwith tongs; piercing meat with a fork allows juicesto escape. When broiling poultry or fish, brusheach side often with butter.Q. Why are my meats not turning out as brownas they should?A. In some areas, the power (voltage) to the ovenmay be low. In these cases, preheat for 10 minutesbefore placing the broiler pan with food in theoven. Check to see if you are using therecommended shelf position. Broil for the longestperiod of time indicated in the Broiling Guide.Turn food only once during broiling.
