A grill device for grilling food to be grilled, to a coupling and to a plate for food to be grilled is provided. The grill device includes at least one frame having at least one frame element and at least one holding element, arranged at one end of the frame element. The grill device can be rotated about a vertical longitudinal axis A and is suspended or supported upright along the vertical rotational axis. At least one support element for food to be grilled is arranged thereon. The at least one support element has a first portion which has an opening through which the frame element can be inserted. The frame element has a non-rotationally symmetrical cross-section such that the support element for the food to be grilled and the frame element cooperate by interlocking with respect to a normal plane N of the vertical longitudinal axis A.

A removable, retrofit, and/or rotatably attached handle is attached to a top wire of a wire chafing stand in embodiments of the disclosed technology. The handle can be rotated upwards such that a curved bend within the handle locks in place a first pan resting on the top wire of the wire chafing stand. A second pan, oriented upside down compared to the first pan, can be placed thereover, as a lid, on the first pan and held in place by the curved bend within the handle. The top and bottom pan are held in place by the same curved bend or bends of one or more such handles.

In an apparatus for heating and/or cooking foodstuffs, in particular meat products, comprising an appliance housing with at least one opening, an accommodating device for the meat products to be heated, a heating device associated with the accommodating device and having one or more heating elements, the accommodating device has one or more accommodating compartments which is accessible by way of the opening, and an insertion cassette which corresponds to a respective accommodating compartment and which can be loaded with one or more meat products in a predetermined orientation relative to each other and is adapted to be introduced into and removed again from the accommodating compartment.

A food support rack, especially for use on a grill, the food support rack including removable and reversible food support members.

Cooking grates and grills incorporating such cooking grates are provided. A representative cooking grate includes: a plurality of elongate elements of heat resistant material, the elements being V-shaped in transverse cross-section, each of the elements having a first lower edge, a second lower edge and a vertex, the first lower edge and the second lower edge being spaced from each other with the vertex being located therebetween, the vertex being operative as a cooking surface to support food during cooking on the cooking grate; corresponding adjacent lower edges of adjacent ones of the elements being oriented to define gaps therebetween such that a first of the gaps, defined by a first lower edge of a first element and a second lower edge of a second element, exhibits a width of between approximately 5% and approximately 18% of a distance between the first lower edge and the second lower edge of the first element.

A wire rack apparatus which fits on top of a shallow flat baking sheet pan and oven that supports a plurality of bacon slices vertically during roasting so that grease and fat and particular water within the body of bacon slices runs onto the shallow baking sheet pan. The bacon rack has a series of spaced upright wire mesh racks extending from a main support base rack. The upright wire mesh racks are positioned in elevated relation to a shallow baking sheet pan during cooking. The mesh racks are removably secured by U-shaped bend inserted slots to the main support base rack. Bacon slices are placed in the upright rack during roasting.

The present invention relates to an electric grill comprising a purification and circulation system for removing oil mist and smoke and, more particularly, to an electric grill comprising a purification and circulation system for removing oil mist and smoke, wherein: a suction hole and a discharge hole are installed around a grill plate; air containing oil mist, smoke, heat, and smell is suctioned through the suction hole, the suctioned air containing, oil mist, smoke, heat, and smell is introduced into the lower portion of the grill by a suction fan, and comes into contact with water on the upper side of an oil pan containing the water, so as to remove the oil mist, smoke, heat, and smell contained therein, and then the purified air is circulated through the discharge hole installed around the grill plate; a filter is disposed so as to completely remove the oil mist, smoke, heat, and smell; and a Coanda air guide is installed so as to facilitate the contact between the oil mist, smoke, heat, and smell and the water, whereby the oil mist, smoke, heat, and smell can be completely removed.

Disclosed is a stove that includes a dome-shaped fire grate comprising a center, a perimeter surrounding and spaced from the center, the center being higher than the perimeter; a plurality of radial stiffening ribs extending away from the perimeter and toward the center; at least one circumferential stiffening ring extending at least partially about the center; and a plurality of ventilation holes between the center and the perimeter.

Example inset frames configured to interchangeably support cooking accessories of various shapes and sizes within a cookbox of a grill are described. An example inset frame is configured to be positioned within a cookbox of a grill. The inset frame comprises a support lattice configured to interchangeably support a rectangular cooking accessory and a circular cooking accessory within the cookbox of the grill.

An article of cookware has an interior cooking surface that with raised linear or curvilinear bands with an outer layer of a first material that is one of ceramic or metallic in nature to provide cut and abrasion resistance. Valleys or grooves between the raised bands have an outer layer of a second material with low surface energy to facilitate food release and cleaning of debris. The bands are arranged to protect the second material from cutting and abrasion that would damage the second material. The bands aid in enhancing distribution of cooking oil to enhance searing and browning of foods.
