Broiling and grilling
Broiling and grilling expose food to direct heat. Both methods allow fat to drip away from the food.
To grill outdoors, place the food on a grill rack above a bed of charcoal embers or gas-heated rocks. If you have an indoor grill, follow the manufacturer's directions. For smaller items, such as chopped vegetables, use foil or a long-handled grill basket to prevent pieces from slipping through the rack.
To broil, place food on a broiler rack below a heat element.
