I use the broiler drawer all the time and I'm always surprised that people don't use it more often.
I mean it's actual flames flickering on your food. Fire good!
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, pandas, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

We just watched Fantastic Mr. Fox which is still fantastic. (Emmett's review: "You know what this movie is? It's charming. That's exactly the right word for it.")
Yep. We just watched it again earlier this week. So that's twice in two week's time. Love it so.
I miss my broiler drawer.
I decided not to go to the opening night party, and instead went home. I wish I had gone, because due to assorted bus craziness, it took me 3 hours to get home, which was enough time to see theplay, go to the party for a bit, and take a cab home!
IME, it's too close to the flames, I'd love to have a little more control as to how much space I can have between the food and the flames, and also gives me more options for what vessel fits.
Also, it's always really uneven cooking so it tends to be more trouble than it's worth to get in there and turn the pan around 4 times to get some semblence of even.... blackening.
Broiler drawer: not a fan!
I dislike the broiler drawer because there's no way to adjust the distance of the food from the heating element, and bending down to put the food in and out is hard on my back.
heh, broiler drawer drawback x-post!
I have dinner in the broiler right now! I hope it'll be fucking great.
That's funny -- I grew up with a broiler drawer, so I figure that's the One True Broiler, but I can see what you people are saying. Mostly if I broil now, I do it in the toaster oven anyway.
Holy crap. My brother just called to say that he got married this afternoon.
Holy crap! That's exciting.
Wait...
Brenda, did your brother get married in Russia?
Nope, they're in DC right now. Well, technically Virginia.
