SMART FINISH eliminates the need for back-to-back cooking. Now you can cook two different foods with two different cook times, and watch as they finish at the same time. Simply program each zone, and let the SMART FINISH feature do the rest.

NOTE: For all recipes in this chart, season with salt and pepper as desired.

NOTE: For your own best results, start checking food for doneness 2 minutes before cook time is complete. Stop cooking at any time if the desired level of crispiness has been achieved, but make sure any raw proteins have reached a food-safe temperature.
