OPERATING THE INFRARED SEARING BURNER
61
Remove food from the infrared searing burner
immediately after searing. Cook on the main
burner sections to your desired preference.
Searing Burner
Searing food is used in many fine restaurants
throughout the country. It can be a challenge though
as it cooks at a higher heat, When done correctly,
searing will help hold in flavor making food more moist.
Personal tastes along with types and thickness of cuts
of meat vary so experiment to get the results you
desire. In general, follow the hints below.
1. Searing should always be done at the beginning of
cooking.
2,
Turn on the infrared searing burner and preheat
the grill for about 5 minutes. The searing burner
should always be used on the Hi setting to sear
food.
3,
Infrared searing burners produce very hot and
concentrated heat. Therefore, we recommend
searing each side of your food for no longer than 1
to 2 minutes at a time to avoid charring and
flare-ups.
4. You can rotate food 90 degrees to obtain cross
searing marks.
Never use water to control flare-ups when using
an infrared searing burner. Water will crack the
hot porcelain on the burner and damage your
burner.
CARE OF THE INFRARED SEARING BURNER
Infrared searing burners have ceramic surfaces, so
care must be taken to avoid damage.
1. Never allow water or moisture to come in contact
with a hot burner as it can crack the ceramic and
damage your burner.
2. Never allow hard or heavy objects to impact the
surface, Use special care when removing grates as
they can damage the ceramic surface if dropped.
5,
While infrared searing burners will vaporize most
grease and drippings, it is a good idea to control
flare-ups by trimming excess fat and repositioning
meat during cooking.
