- Follow these four easy steps to better broiling.
Broiling is a great method for getting grill-like results in the kitchen. Both grilling and broiling are fast and easy, and both use direct, high heat to brown and cook food. Broiling is like grilling, then, only turned on its head. In this video you'll learn how to broil in four easy steps. You'll get great tips for preparing your meat in advance, for trimming fat to avoid flare-ups, and for preventing your meat from curling up under the broiler. You'll discover how to keep lean chicken and fish moist under the intense heat of the broiler. You'll also learn how to prep the broiling pan and get advice for making cleanup time fast and easy. You'll also see a great trick for broiling meat without a broiler pan. We'll show you how close to the heat source your food should be and where to set your cooking rack. You'll learn which foods cook best at close range and which need a few extra inches distance from the heat source. You'll find out why it's best to use tongs when turning broiled meat and chicken and a wide spatula for turning broiled fish. You'll learn at what temperature broiled steaks, chicken, and fish (like salmon and tilapia) are done and why you should allow meats to rest after removing them from the broiler.

I’m so good at broiling that even my smoke alarms cheer me
Rivera lol
i took the batteries out of mine.
OMG same
lolz
For real dude lol
I had no idea what broiling was, i thought when you broil something it goes in that little mystery drawer underneath your oven that holds all your pans hahaha
I was confused about where the broiler is too and had to research it. Turns out that each oven is different and, to locate yours, you have to look for the red strip that lights up when you turn the broiler on. For most electric ovens, the broiler is at the top of the oven as shown in the video while the drawer is just used to keep food warm or for storage. On gas ovens, however, the broiler may be at the top or it may be the drawer so look for the heat source to find out. Hope that helped!!!
@@MitchMitch77-77 Thanks for your comment. For a long time I thought every stove had the broiler in the bottom. I grew up with the broiler on the bottom, but we always had old stoves back then (1960's & 70's). As a young bride and then as a Mom (80's & 90's and 2000...that last one was a real surprise, lol), we still had older stoves in our apartments/homes. When we got a newer model many years after moving into our own very first home, I did not know what to do except store pans down there as no heat ever touched that part, lol. So I cooked, never broiled. Now, as a Grandma many times over, my husband has recently gifted me with a (well deserved) fancy stove that has settings for air fryer, convection, roast, bake, bread proofing, dehydrate and broil, as well as griddle burner. I'm going to make up for lost time and use every setting as much as possible. Yeha, I love cooking.
Same here…haha…turned out delicious
But same
Me too!!! Just learned what is brileed means
It's very refreshing to find an American Presenter who does not get carried away with excess chatter. Clear and right to the point,I would rate this instruction as Excellent.Thank You.Yes,the wooden spoon idea is a good one.
So it's grilling but in an oven. That could have been 30 seconds long. Thanks for the in depth examples of how to slide a tray into an oven. I feel enlightened.
Lmfaoooooooooooooooooo
Far out LOL
lmao
Correct, called broiling. See how one word is used instead of 4? Amazing hey
Again, feeling enlightened. Thanks Jamie
This was so helpful! I found out a long time ago my oven had a broiler in the bottom, but no one in my cooking-inept family had a clue how to use it, so I delayed trying it. Now I can finally accomplish my dream of "broiling" dinner.

I went from clueless to well informed in under five minutes! Thanks for creating this video!
Hi Nancie, thanks for your question. The difference between the high setting and low setting for broil is 25-50 degrees. Depending on your oven, typically high is the best option.
"*Never* use glass cookware.." @ 1:20
*uses glass cookware later in video* @ 4:06
The hint is in the term.....'To brown or crisp', the heat is lower.
Besides, glass can be used if 'Oven Proof Glass' is used.
Should never use salt seasoned meat directly on alu foil either. The salt will dissolve the alu into the food potentially giving rise to Alzemers / Pakinsons later in life
You're right! Good catch, whacklezz. Thanks for the catch!
Please let us know the source of your comment, psyhc01. We are not aware of any medical research about this connection.
you should never use alu pots pans or foil for cooking , there are numerous studies showing alu leach to foods through cooking does cause serious brain disorders , hence we don't make pots that come in contact with food anymore
Cannot thank you enough! I followed everything you said and cooked a roast to complete perfection, sad to say it took me this long to finally get it perfect, I was always either overcooking or under, never reaching that perfect medium.
I love you guys. Im a dad of two little girls and i always cook for them. Thank you
now i finally know what broiling is! we dont use this term in Australia, on our ovens its the grill setting.
These videos always make me feel like a third world alien for not owning a meat thermometer.
This is actually incredibly helpful, thank you!
What kinda feast you cookin?
Great question! Generally the water is added when you are broiling a fatty piece of meat. The water prevents the fat from catching on fire. If you are broiling something that is more lean and is not likely to produce too many drippings, there is no need to add the water.
This information was helpful. I wish u would have emphasized keeping the door open to prevent burning. Also, the burning and popping and coming in contact with the element scares me. This is why I don’t using that top rack. I like the 2nd one.
Thank you Bill. To answer your question, this will depend on your oven and broiler settings. Some manufacturers do suggest leaving the door of the oven slightly open when broiling - we would recommend checking your manual.
Great resource! A little confused why you said no glass in broiler but then put glass casserole dish under broiler 🤷🏾♀but aside from that, super helpful info. Thanks!
She used the glass dish for the casserole to slightly brown the top which doesn't take long. For meats it takes a little more time. The dish it not designed for that length of time.
I kept hearing this broiling word being used, and it turns out it's just grilling in the oven...every oven iv'e ever owned has called it the grill setting, guess it's a yank thing?
I thought broiling was a fancy way of cooking, until this showed it's just grilling on the top shelf of the oven.
No, In my oven when you put on bake their is a concealed burner on the bottom, Set to broil and their is a exposed burner with a flame at the top if you have a Gas oven.
Thanks I used it to melt some cheese on a meal. My husband was SO happy about how it turned out.
thanks a lot for this video, as an Australian who probably watches too much American TV I've often wondered what the difference between broiling and grilling is. You cleared it up nicely for me :D
Thank you so much for your feedback, Karen! We are happy to have clarified the difference between the two for you :)
Thank you. I'm not getting rid of my meat fat though.
Nancie, this is great news! We are so happy that this turned out well for you :)
For people who dont wanna grill bbq outside in the winter snowing. Broiler is a good deal. Anyway, i just discovered what broil mean lol
Natasha Droff yeah, boil with an R.
Natasha Droff right lol
Its just called grilling lol
I still don't get how it's different from regular baking ?
@@Dom-fx4kt its not grill
Thank you so much for this video, it was super informative. I lost the bottom of my oven element and only have the broiler and want to postpone the purchase of a new oven as long as I can. This will help me immensely. Thanks again.
Glad to help, Basilisk76. We want you to eat well no matter what. Be sure to stay in the room when you turn the broiler on so you can keep an eye on the food and keep it from burning.
Hi there, thanks for your question. You won't need to sear first, as the high heat from the broiler will help create a crust to seal in flavor and juices. Enjoy :)
Thanks for your compliments! Keep on cookin' :)
When broiling should the oven door be open or closed. For and electric I thought slightly open. Also one part of this video used a glass dish, I am not sure if glass should be used under a broiler?
Thank you for your question. There is no need to keep the oven open while it is is preheating for baking. If you are preheating the broiler, please follow the manufacturing directions of your oven. Some do recommend to keep the door open.
just made it exactly as you said and it was done perfect and cleanup was a breeze.thank you
This is the Most Amazing Best Informative video ever!!! Very Well Done!
Thanks for your compliments. What kind of vegetables would you like to broil?
I assume this might be a UK v USA language thing.
In the UK when we say grill we generally mean what is described in the video.
If I am not mistaken the USA meaning of Grill is over direct heat, ie charcoals. What us UK'rs would generally just call BBQ :D
Some people in the US also call that BBQ, but in places where Barbecue is Serious Business, that's sacrilege. BBQ is "low and slow" cooking, and grilling is over direct heat.
The best broiling video! Please create videos for other common cooking methods, Thanks!
@DracoC47 Glad to hear it! Thanks for watching.
Recommends not to use glass ... then uses glass for casserole example.
Thanks for pointing this out, Samwise Gangi. We'll make a note about this and check with our video team.
+Allrecipes Gamgee*
+Samwise Gangi LOL. Yeah. It's probably an oven-safe Pyrex (or some other such heat-resistant glass) baking dish, but they probably should have specified.
+Samwise Gangi don't use a fork to turn....then jabs a thermometer into th side of it. might as well used a spigot. Poke it with your finger quickly to see how done it is.
+gojo197zero That's assuming it's the end of the cooking so it's okay to pierce then.
Nice breakdown for education
Thank you. I needed this because this is my 1st time broiling ham.
I just went to school. I am trying to eat healthy (or more so that I have) and have a lot of food to do something with. I can't decide what to try first. bet this makes me feel better too. thanks for the vid, it rocks. I even know what to do with my toaster oven to make it broil now since I didn't know what one piece of it was for. lol the stand you put the meat up on and the container that catches the grease. I have been cooking things in the catch part. lmbo.... omg. I can rebuild an engine though....... I'm humbled.
Good question. When you are grilling, the heating element is underneath the meat. With broiling, the meat is cooked from the top (where the broiling coil is attached to the stove).
Maybe in the US the heating equipment for grilling is underneath the meat - this is what we would call roasting. Most ovens in the UK, as far as I'm aware, have the grilling element at the top of the oven, therefore acting in the same way as what you call a broiler.
Cool. I did it the other day, worked perfectly! It was so simple and easy to do, I'm going to cook all my steaks like this for now on.
I'm going to try cooking steaks like this too, was looking at the some Crab cakes, instructions say best to broil that's how I came upon this video.
Cook your steaks in a pan on the stove. It’s the best way, especially if you baste it with butter
OMG - seriously - thanks for the in depth guide. I grew up with a separate broiler - and did not know much of this info, about how to use the oven!!
love this. I did a video like this a while ago but I totally missed the foil. will do next time. thanks 💖💖
Excellent! Now I know! 🎉. Thank you.
LOVED this video. Although near the beginning it says never to use glass while broiling, and later in the video it shows a casserole in a glass dish being broiled?
Pyrex are made for high heat.
I think she meant like regular glass bowls and containers
Do you keep the oven open while you're pre-heating? What about while browning something like garlic toast?
Do you close the oven door or leave it partially open?
Thank you allrecipes! I'm embarrassed that I didn't really use or know how to use "the broiler" before so yeahhhh thx!😁
That said make sure you have a heavy duty sheet pan that won't warp under the heat
You will want to set your oven to the "broil" setting. If you don't have that, usually broil is about 500-550F.
Great point, Brent Thank you.
Could you please provide me advice on how to preheat the broiler?
Never trim the fat! EVER!
Step #1: toss the flavor you paid for into the trash.
@@nwrigley Seriously, right?
@@nwrigley pro tip: preferences. some people would prefer to not have fat. especially if they are a bit more health conscious. others may just not like the fat. cook however you want
Georga Seebalack Health conscious? Fat is very healthy if you do your research.
Broilers are PERFECT for cooking Neapolitan-style pizza dough......... but broilers that run on natural gas (employing a gas rod that shoots flames throughout the entire length of the rod) and are in a drawer compartment UNDER the oven are better............. because right after you broil the pizza's top, you simply place the pizza (still in the pizza pan), directly on top of the (steel?) base of the oven (it comes in DIRECT contact with the flames in the broiler drawer below) to cook the bottom crust of the pizza. The only thing is that you have to rotate the pizza pan (using two long pairs of tongs) under the broiler so that the entire circumference of the crust gets even exposure to the heating element/gas rod.
This is the best. You get a nice crispy crust.
Great Video...i love the tips on how to broil all types of meat. Thanks Allrecipes!!
Had to look up ‘what is broiling?’ I have lived in uk, South Africa, and now in Australia and it’s always been known in all these parts of the world as GRILLING. Lol trust the USA to have their own name for it.
@Jacqueline Grandemange
We have gas grills in the USA or some use charcoal to cook outside with flames on the bottom during spring, summer & fall . It’s called broiling here when it’s done inside in a oven & when heat is from the top.
Getting ready to make some thick steaks now in the broiler because it’s very cold and windy at the moment
I feel so stupid - I didn't know you could use your oven in different ways ! Beginner cooker here ! Great video :)
Just learning how to cook at age 66!! lol
This is a great video. Now I know how to broil! Thank you!
Thanks for your question! You can broil chicken at 500 degrees just be sure to follow the tips in the video for adjusting your oven rack lower when you cook chicken. Enjoy :)
Very good video...learned so much :)
Thank you so much for this video. It helped a lot, now my chicken wings will taste even better =)
best and only video that explains how t broil
Super video all in one to understand everything thanks
I broiled some ribs for the first time ever last night for dinner! Lets just say my wife would life for me to cook more now! They were delicious.
most british people would call it grilling
+nigel bath I was thinking this...
nigel bath a grill belongs outside and is a separate appliance 😊
we would call that a barbecue - the appliance being used here was an oven and the process of cooking would be grilling
damn right
Blurry face not in my oven we still call it a grill
Ooooh I used to call it grilling. No wonder I couldn't find any recipes that included the top oven! I used the wrong word. Must remember it's called broiling from now on.
All recipes is my stuff ! Keep teaching us how to cook!
When I broil I don't use the broiler rack cuz I like the sauce that the Worcestershire sauce and the BBQ sauce makes. Like teriyaki steak or with A1 sauce
Thank u for posting... Great tips!
Some ovens dont allow temperature adjustment on is just on and really high.
I live in an apt. and my stove is a "cheap Chinese made" Fridgidare model. I have two Broiling options - LO and HI. I don't know which one is the 160 deg. F one.
Good luck! Let us know how it turned out.
I suspect this might be the case for us Aussies too.... grilling is the heat element above the food and barbequing is the heat under the food.
....I have had this broiler equipment for like 8 years...And I now know I was using it wrong this whole time... #TheMoreYouKnow
what about when you flip the meat? when you do it on a grill, the surface the meat is on is between the heat and the meat, so when you flip it, its going on a hot surface again. but when broiling when you flip, you're putting the cooked surface of the meat onto the surface that just had raw meat on it, and it was insulated from the heat source, has a bunch of the raw meat juices that got broiled out of the meat on it...
Such professional and excellent instructions.👍
For the rest of the non American population of the planet. Broil/Broiling is the American term for Grill/Grilling. Grilling is a form of cooking that involves dry heat applied to the surface of food, commonly from above or below.
Aloo'minum is Aluminum.
HiOn Maiden a grill is an appliance that sits on your porch and uses charcoal, and broiling is a method of cooking in the oven. the heat source comes from above when broiling, and on all sides when baking.
Yeah but when you grill aren't you meant to keep the door open? They had the door closed here..?
It's a grill inside an oven. A grill on a BBQ is a grill on a BBQ. That's what everyone who's not American calls it. Americans just like being different.
*aluminium
An appliance that you grill things over charcoal is a BBQ.
So.. it's a grill! Wooooooooooah.
Great video but aren’t you suppose to leave the door slightly open when you broil?
Great tips. Thank you!
That camera was a good camera for its time.
Thank this was the video I needed
Hi.. if I want to grill veggies under broiler, ,what should the temp. & timing be?
Awesome thanks for the video
This was helpful and easy. Thanks.
Nice and easy video Thank you
Thanks.That's a lot of help.It's a basic must know,u know..I had been wanting to know the right thing.did somebody tell u how much I love u guys."All recipes" just rocks.:-) just 1thing more, could u tell ne the timing(I know it would vary for diff. veggies but some idea would be help).also I do it on middle rack(or top rack should be considered).Thanks & let me know:-)
awesome!! do u keep the door open while boiling?? can meat be covered with foil before broiling?? thanks
Thanks for your questions, Asna Ali. Do not cover the meat with foil before broiling. The broiler heat won't be able to cook the meat. And keep the oven door closed. You can open it slightly to make sure the food isn't getting over cooked, but keeping it closed maintains an even temperature inside the oven.
In UK we call that grilling. Using the the grill/element of the oven to GRILL.
When broiling meat, is the oven door closed or partially left open?
Wait I'm confused what's the point of using the top rack on the broiler If you're just gonna cover it in foil ? May as well just place the meat in the covered pan or just use the sheet pan/rack setup
This is very helpful
What should be the temperature of the oven for grilling chicken? Making piri piri chicken and live in an apartment, so can't grill it outdoor. Should I let the door of the oven open so it gets nice grilling texture?
Thank you
I came here because a tasty video said to broil, and I didn't know what that was, now I do. I also know how to adjust an oven rack in depth now. 2 birds with 1 stone. Oh oh.... Yeahhhhh
this is how burger king gets ur whopper in 40 seconds lmao
What is broiling ? I got a small table top oven with heating elements at the top and bottom and a metal pan. Is it a broiler or an oven?
iv'e just found out by watching this video that iv'e got a broiler oven, i thought it was
strange my hobs where on the floor. single guys doh!
Newer Pyrex isn't as strong as the old Pyrex. I've broiled with my familys Pyrex, while my new Pyrex did crack when broiling, the older Pyrex has been used to broil for years... But yes, never put glass in at those temps because it is still a bad idea.
Otherwise it is a good video.
Thanks for the video :D think I will start to use mine when I just don't feel like cleaning my grill or when it rains. :D
