Kenmore Exclusive Steamer Feature
Your grill includes the new and innovative Steamer
feature from Kenmore. To set up the steamer, follow
the assembly instructions in the Use and Care Guide.
Cooking with steam is easy, fast, and it helps keeps in
the natural flavors of the food. Steaming also helps
food retain more of the natural nutrition sometimes
cooked off in boiling. You can steam almost any type
of food. Vegetables, Chicken, Fish, and Seafood work
great. The only food to avoid is beef. Beef will dry up
when steamed.
Once you have the steamer set up, it's just like using
one in your kitchen. To steam the foods, cut them into
uniform pieces. This will ensure that the food is cooked
evenly. Place them on the steamer basket on a single
layer with slight spacing between each piece. The
food pieces should not be touching, ensuring that each
piece is steamed evenly.
Some hints for maximizing your steaming experience:
• Make sure the water is below the basket. If the water
is in contact with the food, you will end up boiling it.
• Try to limit the number of times you open the lid to
check the food. This will allow all of the steam to
escape and extend your cooking time.
• During use you should see steam escaping from the
lid. Monitor the holes in the back of the lid to detect
the presence of escaping steam. If you do not see
steam escaping, check to make sure your burner is
on high and that you have water in the tray.
• For most cooking you will not need to add more
water during the cooking process, but if you do, pour
it through the basket in a corner away from the
food.
• Don't be afraid to use spices and rubs on the food.
They will not get washed or cooked off during the
steaming process. For a little extra flavor, dilute a
small amount of BBQ sauce or marinade in the water
before you begin the steaming process.
