Using a meat thermometer, test for doneness by inserting the meat thermometer into the center of the food being cooked and make sure the thermometer is not touching the bone or grill plates. To prevent heat loss and promote even cooking, do not open the grill cover frequently while cooking. When first cooking a particular food, check for doneness several minutes before suggested time; if necessary, adjust timer using control button. ⷠIf cooking more than one piece of food, try to have them similar in size and thickness. ⷠRemember that since grill is cooking from both sides, cooking time will typically be shorter than expected. For added flavor, add dry seasonings before grilling or marinate foods before cooking. This grill has a unique hinge that allows the grill cover to adjust to the thickness of food being grilled. This allows for even melting of cheese on top of hot cooked hamburgers. If the grill is not hot, preheat grill following directions under PREHEATING THE GRILL. Lift handle of the grill cover up and forward into the locking position of float & lock hinge. For even browning and cooking, when grilling more than one sandwich or piece of meat, it is important that E the thickness of each be about the same. Use plastic spatula to scrape off any excess fat and food particles left on the grill plates; runoff will drip into the drip tray.
