Oven shelves which can be disassembled and, if desired, fit into ovens having different dimensions. The oven shelves include a sheet having a non-stick layer. The sheet has a loop-shaped border along the length on two opposite sides, into which loop-shaped border the rods (longitudinal rods) fit. Transverse rods are located between the longitudinal rods and ensure that the sheet is tensioned. A support element is optionally provided under the sheet during use.

A wire pan and interlocking top insert component are disclosed. The wire pan's top side is formed by a closed loop wire, which is connected to the parallelly placed bottom of the wire pan by inwardly sloping wires. Attached to the inwardly sloping wires are frictional clamping flanges and bent wires, which connect opposite inwardly sloping wires. The distance between the frictional clamping flanges and bent wire is substantially equal to the top insert edge wires' diameter. Thus, the top insert can be entered into the spaces between the bent wires and frictional clamping flanges, holding it in place during usage. The majority of the bent wires abut the top insert wire, besides for their central depressions which form portals. These portals are sufficiently wide, in some embodiments, to enter a finger into in order ease the process of the detachment of the top rack from the wire pan.

A food support structure provides spacing rings and elevation to provide spacing and support for food items to optimize the cooking space of a round cooking device.

The problem of evenly cooking a food item so that all sides cook and brown evenly is solved by the use of a roasting platform that raises above rendered substances that can cause a steam and wetness to the surface of a food item. The roasting platform can be foldable or compressed, so that it takes up minimal storage space and can be deployed for use. Drain holes allow rendered substances to be more quickly separated from the surface of a food item. The same drain holes can be used as visual indicators when deploying the roasting platform to show when he folds of a roasting platform are sufficiently separated for maximum usable area and support for a weight placed thereon.

A rack assembly is mountable within an oven cavity of a cooking appliance. The rack assembly includes a cooking stone; an insulating mat defining a recess configured to accommodate the cooking stone; and a rack configured to support the insulating mat. A superficial area of the insulating mat is at least 70% of a superficial area of the rack.

An air fryer with a flip function includes a body and an internal cavity installed in a lower interior of the body. A first wind wheel is mounted on an inner side at an upper end of the internal cavity. A heating pipe is installed below the first wind wheel. A partition is arranged above the internal cavity within the body. A cold circulation channel is formed between the internal cavity, the partition and the body. A second wind wheel is mounted on an upper end of the cold circulation channel. A detachable flip rack is horizontally provided in a middle portion of the internal cavity. A drive motor is arranged on an outer side of the internal cavity to drive one end of the detachable flip rack to rotate. An opening is provided on one side of the inner cavity. A flip openable panel is provided at the opening.

A cooking device including a base having a bottom plate with a plurality of slots, a first end wall, a second end wall, and a side wall. The cooking device also includes at least one first rack removably coupled to the base, the at least one first rack including a main body portion having a rack tab, and at least one second rack removably coupled to the base, the at least one second rack including a main body portion and an upper plate extending from an upper surface of the second rack main body portion. The second rack main body portion has a rack tab. The base includes structure for receiving the rack tabs to secure the respective first and second racks to the base.

A cooking utensil includes a sheet metal tray of a substantially uniform thickness. The sheet metal tray includes a repeating pattern of depressed groove channels, each groove channel including in section raised channel sides and a depressed channel center. The repeating pattern includes a raised channel side of each of the depressed groove channels connecting with at least one raised channel side of a neighboring one of the depressed groove channels. The depressed channel center is configured to hold a bread product to be baked, and the raised channel sides are configured to keep the bread product in each of the depressed groove channels from contacting the bread product in neighboring depressed groove channels.

A grill bag for cooking small food items, such as pieces of meat, seafood or vegetables, on a barbecue grill or the like is in the form or is formable into a pouch. The pouch is formed from a piece of flexible, high temperature resistant material having distributed mesh openings. The pouch of the grill bag can be loaded with small food items and the loaded grill bag easily set onto and removed from a barbecue grill and easily moved or turned over on the grill to efficiently and evenly cook the food items contained in the grill bag.

A grill accessory creates a steaming chamber on a grill that has a heat source and a rack of spaced-apart bars over the heat source. The grill accessory includes a cover configured that covers a food item and forms a steaming region below the cover. The cover operates in connection with a vapor generator that receives and holds fluid beneath the cover. The vapor generator has at least one vent opening to release steam into the steaming chamber. The grill accessory is configured so that it can rest upon the grill rack of spaced-apart bars, and so that the vapor generator transmits heat to the fluid in the vapor generator to convert the fluid to steam. The vapor generator releases the steam through the vent opening(s) into the steaming region below the cover. The steam can help melt toppings and/or introduce moisture into food items cooked on the grill.
