This movement of hot air cooks foods more evenly, crisping surfaces while sealing in moisture and yielding crustier breads.
using the oven BROIL Smoking Broiling uses an intense, radiant heat to cook food. Both the inner and outer broil elements heat during full broiling. Only the inner broil element heats during center broiling. The element(s) cycle on and off at intervals to maintain the oven temperature. The meat probe cannot be used with this mode. Due to the intense heat associated with broiling, it is normal to experience smoke during the cooking process.
using the oven The size, weight, thickness, starting temperature, and your preference of doneness will affect broiling times. The following guide is based on meats at refrigerator temperature. note Always use a broiler pan and grid when broiling.
