Provided is a cooking apparatus in which a heating plate, a frame, and a pocket part are independently provided and which has a structure that is capable of securing use convenience and safety by a coupled structure of the heating plate, the frame, and the pocket part.

There is provided an indoor/outdoor tabletop grill appliance which uses quartz halogen tubes as radiant heating elements to provide cooking functionality combined with the aesthetics of the outdoor grilling experience. The invention provides the advantage of various forms of cooking that also speed up the cooking process: direct heat on the food item from the quartz halogen tubes, heat reflected back from the inner surfaces of the grilling chamber and onto the food item, convection heat directed about the food item due to the grilling chamber configuration and directed heat from the slotted platen this in contact with the food item received from the halogen tubes.

A cooking appliance for producing flatbreads or other foodstuffs including a first heating assembly and a second heating assembly. The first heating assembly includes a first cooking surface, and the second heating assembly includes a second cooking surface. The first cooking surface has a spiral groove configured to form a spiral pattern in the foodstuff.

A cooking device is provided. In one embodiment, the cooking device includes a base having a recessed cavity arranged in a top surface. The cooking device can also include a heating element arranged within the recessed cavity of the base. A first bracket can be positioned on the base, and a cooking plate can be positioned on the top surface of the base. A lid assembly can be provided and can include a cover plate configured to be removably positioned over the cooking plate. The cover plate can include a plurality of through-holes arranged therein. A second bracket can be positioned on the cover plate and it can be configured to couple to the first bracket such that the lid assembly is connected to and rotatable relative to the base.

Provided is a grill apparatus having a foldable heat generating unit and a grill unit, in which a plurality of heat sources are folded on each other or unfolded from each other, to radiate heat downward from the plurality of heat sources, and cook food through the plurality of heat sources, thereby controlling the amount and the time of cooking the food according to user's necessity by folding or unfolding the plurality of heat sources on each other or from each other. The grill apparatus includes: the foldable grill unit on which a food is put and cooked, in which a plurality of grill plates can be mutually unfolded or folded; and the foldable heat generating unit disposed on a support pillar disposed vertically from the grill unit and in which a plurality of heaters can be mutually unfolded or folded while applying infrared rays to the grill unit.

The current invention is a disposable cooking pan with a drip tray. The trays will be 1.5 in depth and various lengths and widths to fit various cooking purposes. The cooking pans will be made of aluminum or other suitable materials which distribute heat, are durable, and are affordable. The pan can be used in the oven is designed to be used on a grill. The food is placed on a metal grating, that is near the top of the pan. Fat drippings from the food pass through the grating and fall into the bottom of the pan. When the food is prepared, the tray can be disposed off after cooking to a safe temperature.

Several embodiments include a cooking appliance/instrument (e.g., oven). The cooking instrument can draw an alternating current (AC) power and generate a maximum available power for a heating system of the cooking instrument via a power component that converts the drawn AC power. The cooking instrument can then directionally heat each of different zones in a cooking chamber of the cooking instrument in sequence using one or more heating elements of the heating system on at least one side of the cooking chamber such that each step in the sequence utilizes the maximum available power for the heating system.

Provided is an induction heating cooker which can be carried to a desired position on a cooking table to conduct grill cooking using induction heating and radiation heating and is configured such that a cooling fan forms an airflow in a plurality of vent channels inside a main body. The plurality of vent channels include a first vent channel. The first vent channel is configured such that an airflow from the cooling fan is directly guided from the cooling fan to an air outlet. The first vent channel is configured such that the airflow from the cooling fan and an airflow from a heating chamber are mixed.

A cooking apparatus including a housing having an outer perimeter and a first opening. A flange extending from the housing defines the outer perimeter. An inner peripheral edge defines the first opening. A cooktop element has a first peripheral edge, and at least one grill element has a second peripheral edge. A plurality of holes are in a grill plate of the at least one grill element to allow matter to pass through the holes. The cooktop element and the at least one grill element are mounted to the housing in the first opening with at least part of the first and second peripheral edges facing each other and at least part of the inner peripheral edge facing the first and second peripheral edges. The housing is configured to insert into an opening of a support structure with the flange preventing insertion all the way through the opening of the support structure.

A vertical grill comprises a back chimney within the housing having an inlet and an outlet. The inlet is in the form of one or more first openings in the back frame member, and the outlet being a second opening which is higher than the inlet. A first air intake located in at least one of the grill's panels. A removable tray module comprises a slide positioned at an incline between the front and back sides, configured to direct fats and break away solids to the front side of the tray. At least one channel is covered by the slide and configured for air flow. An external receptacle is positioned at the front side of the tray, wherein the slide leads into the receptacle so that fats and break away solids may be channeled into the external receptacle after traveling downwards along the incline of the slide.
