A cookware assembly including a cooking vessel with a vessel side wall and an elongated handle extending outwardly from the sidewall, a cover, an opening in at least one of the vessel side wall and the cover in an area above the elongated handle, and a utensil, where the handle of the utensil rests in relation to the elongated handle and the opening permits the utensil component to reside in the interior of the covered cooking vessel when the cover is on the cooking vessel. The cover can be placed on the cooking vessel in a plurality of positions, to allow the utensil to pass to the interior of the cooking vessel, to allow pouring from the cooking vessel with the cover on, and to seal the cover on the cooking vessel without the utensil. An auxiliary vessel can also be included as part of the cooking assembly.

An grooved pizza peel that when transferring an uncooked pizza to a pizza oven the invented grooved pizza peel retains dusting powder, wherein an adaptation includes a plurality of elongate grooves in a leading planar region of the pizza peel, wherein each of the elongate grooves is proximate to a frontal portion of the pizza peel, wherein the frontal portion has a sloped arced front portion with a bottom edge and an upper edge; wherein the grooves extend to the sloped arced front portion and the plurality of elongate grooves are straight and about parallel to each other. The adaptation ensures that even with a heavy loading of the dusting powder any excess dusting powder is retained. The plurality of elongate grooves have a preferred width of about 0.25 inches±about 0.1 inches. The adaptation retains as much as 85% of the dusting powder.

Electric cooking utensils that are adapted to be electrically heated to further the cooking process by contacting and heating food while the food is being manipulating by the utensil. In particular, an electrically heated spatula is adapted to transfer additional heat to a food item being cooked while being manipulated by the utensil and thereby expediting and improving the cooking process.

A pizza peel features a blade, a support bracket, a hinge, a nut and a handle. The support bracket is connected to the blade. The hinge is pivotally connected to the support bracket via a pin. The nut is assembled to the hinge outer threads. The handle is screwed in the hinge inner threads. The handle may be pivoted between a storage position and a deployed position and may be locked in the selected position by clockwise rotation of the nut. When the handle is in the stored position, the pizza peel may be easily stored.

A barbeque grill scraper and related methods of use that utilize a scraping end formed of a heat-responsive material to remove char and other debris from the grilling surface. The grill scraper includes a conformable scraping edge formed of the heat-responsive material. As the conformable scraping edge is drawn back and forth along the heated grilling surface, a combination of pressure applied by a user as well as the heat of the grill surface results in the formation of individual grooves along the conformable scraping edge, wherein each groove is formed to match an upper profile of the grilling surface. Over time, the grooves fully conform to the upper profile of the grilling surface such that an entire cooking surface can be scraped clean of char and debris.

A device for cleaning and oiling grill grates including a roller fashioned from an absorbent material rotatably mounted to a head plate, which in turn is mounted to a handle. The roller is used to apply cleaning or seasoning oil to grill grates. The plate includes a scraping element for scouring grill grates and an aperture through which a user may apply oil to the roller. The absorbent material may alternatively be mounted as a rectangular pad rather than a roller. A bottle opener attached to the handle of the device allows for the device to be conveniently hung and stored in a downward position.

The removal aid serves for removal of liquid and solid mix from a stirring bowl, the removal aid having a handle and a work element and is intended for a rotation. The working element has a centering aid which is designed to cooperate with a stirring unit's end of the stirring unit, the end pointing towards the opening, and a convex reception region with a spatula-like working edge that points towards the working direction, so that the removal aid can be centred onto said stirring unit's end and can be rotated in the working direction inside the stirring bowl.

A grill tool for controlling music being streamed from a portable electronic device to a speaker has a grill tool head mounted on a rigid elongate handle, and a music player controller mounted on the rigid elongate handle. The music player controller has a microcontroller operably connected to a battery, and a button-controlled panel for controlling the music being streamed from the portable electronic device.

A cutlery device includes a blade with an attached handle. Two longitudinal edges of the rectangular blade include a sharpened edge and a non-sharpened spine on the opposite side. The blade has a rectangular fence extending substantially perpendicularly from one or both (opposite) sides of the spine, and extending to the distal end. In one form the fence curves around onto the distal end of the blade. A hole or aperture may be provided in the blade to allow transfer of prepared foods. The fence may be integral with the blade and spine, may be permanently secured to the blade, or may exist as a separate part that may be attached to and removed from the blade.

The invention is an apparatus for removing leaves from the stems of herbs and spices. The device comprises a handle and a rake block. The handle is operably coupled to the rake block at a proximal end. The rake block has a first side and a second side. The first side of the rake block has a first set of teeth. The second side of the rake block has a second set of teeth. The first set of teeth and the second set of teeth are different shapes.
