A method includes inserting a food item into an inner volume of a thermal container. A liquid circulating through a liquid jacket at least partially surrounding and fluidically isolated from the inner volume of the thermal container is cooled such that thermal energy from the food item is transferred to the cooled liquid. After the cooling, thermal energy from a first heating element is transferred to the liquid circulating through the liquid jacket such that thermal energy from the heated liquid is transferred to the food item. Thermal energy from a second heating element is transferred to the food item in response to a criterion being satisfied. The second heating element is different from the first heating element and is disposed in the inner volume of the thermal container.

A warming drawer insert is provided that can be situated into and removed from a warming drawer without tools via a series of flanges positioned along the walls of the warming drawer insert. These flanges also suspend the warming drawer insert in the warming drawer, and create an air gap to allow heated air to flow into the warming drawer through a series of vents positioned along the walls of the warming drawer. The warming drawer is also spill proof and prevents damage to the electric components of the warming drawer while also allowing for easy cleaning.

A drawer glide includes a main body, the main body including a base which defines an X-axis and a Y-axis perpendicular to the X-axis, and a front face extending from the base along a Z-axis perpendicular to the X-axis and the Y-axis; and a slide extension extending from the base along the Z-axis, the slide extension located at a rear of the base distal the front face. The slide extension extends in an opposite direction along the Z-axis from the front face, and the slide extension defines a hook including a first tab extending along the X-axis and a second tab extending along the Z-axis.

An outdoor cooking station with a main body extending to define an upper portion and a lower portion, the lower portion configured to receive an insulated insert. The upper portion including heating elements supported by frame components of the cooking station and one or more heat shields suspended below the heating elements acting as a barrier to substantially prevent heat from reaching the lower portion of the main body. The lower portion of the main body defining a first storage space and a second storage space, the second storage space positioned below the first storage space, the second storage space exhibiting a drawer structure. The insulated insert is sized and configured to be removably positioned within the second storage space, the insulated insert defining a cubical type external structure to define a hollow space therein, the hollow space accessible through a lid member of the insulated insert.
