Using Your Infrared Sear Burner
Infrared grilling produces intense heat which
quickly sears the meat. Searing locks in avor
and juices while allowing the outer surface to
absorb smoke and food aroma that is produced
as grease and drippings are vaporized by the
burner. The result is a crisp, avorful outside
with a tender, juicy inside.
Preheat the infrared sear burner for 5 min-•
utes.
Ensure that meats are fully thawed and •
that all excess fat is trimmed away prior
to grilling.
Leave the burner set to HI when placing •
food on the grill to sear.
Use the sear burner to sear meat 1 to 2 •
minutes on each side, then move the meat
to the main grill cooking surface to nish
grilling to the desired doneness.
