It's called a BROILER...
(upside down grilling)
yes, you need a broiler pan which consists of a pan to catch drippings and the slotted tray that fits on it to hold the food.
Broiling runs only the upper element in the oven, but basically full blast. You put the upper oven rack on the top slot, and the
broiler pan on that. When you broil, leave the oven door open to the first position (usually a 3 or 4" crack) to prevent the
oven from overheating.
For a medium-rare, 1" steak, I broil for 4 minutes, turn and then another 3 1/2 minutes............. YUMMIE
have fun!
PS: you sound new to this, so PLEASE don't try it until you know what a broiler is and how to turn it on and use.... it is VERY
different from just turning up the oven temperature as high as it goes.......... DON'T do that!
