BROILING Questions and Answers Q. When broiling, is it necessary to always use a grid in the pan? A. Y es. Using the grid suspends the meat over the pan. As the meat cooks, the juices fall into the pan, thus keeping meat drier . Juices are protected by the grid and stay cooler , thus preventing excessive spatter and smoking.
