Actually a broiler is the part of an oven that you turn on to heat from the top only. Here (and I excepct there as well), an oven can be turned on to bake, let's say... in that case only the bottom burner inside the oven actually turns on whereas, the broil setting turns on only the top of the oven burner directing the heat straight down. One puts the Texas Toast bread, buttered with the heretofore explained garlic butter, on the top most rack. Watch it carefully since it tends to brown quickly and just as quickly becomes burnt (burned?). Thanks for your patience for a Colonist trying to draw a word picture... it's just not a grill...
