A wirelessly operable cooking appliance for cooking food products includes a wireless communication device. A computing device, such as a smartphone, can wirelessly communicate with the cooking appliance to control and monitor the cooking appliance.

An electric roasting machine includes an outer housing, a heating device accommodated in the outer housing, and an inner housing between the outer housing and the heating device. A heat insulating cavity is formed between the inner housing and the heating device. A heat dissipating passage is formed between the outer housing and the inner housing.

The present technology provides a multi-purpose cooking apparatus that provides simultaneous smokeless grilling for food products and air frying for food products utilizing the same fan and heating elements. A lower portion of the apparatus includes an enclosed air fryer cooking chamber with a closable door. The air fryer cooking chamber is heated with heating elements and a fan for blowing heated air through the cooking chamber. The upper portion of the apparatus utilizes the same upper heating elements as the air fryer chamber and includes a grilling surface, such as a grilling plate, in an enclosed interior cooking environment. The fan pulls air from the upper portion, filters smoke from the air, and returns the air to the lower portion of the apparatus. The heated, smokeless, circulated air from the fan is used to air fry in the lower portion.

A C-shaped or U-shaped open radiant cooking appliance including a lower cooking cassette; an upper cooking cassette; and a posterior part together defining a cooking chamber; the appliance having a proximal portion including at least one proximal radiant element; and a distal portion including at least one distal radiant element, at least one isolation element separating the at least one distal radiant element from the at least one proximal radiant element; the isolation element including at least one first reflector configured to direct the radiation emitted by the at least one distal radiant element towards the cooking chamber.

A children's grill toy including a housing. The housing including a base and plurality of side walls. The plurality of sidewalls forms an interior volume. At least of the sidewalls has at least one door thereon. Atop the side walls is a grill lid. The interior of the housing also includes a grill structure. The grill structure includes a number of grates. The grates are food safe and made from metal. Further, there is a heating element placed under the grates. The heating element is connected to a power source and a series of knobs. The knobs will allow the heating element to have a varying heat. A steaming element is also included. The steaming element has a separate heating element. This heating element will be able to heat water located in a water tank connected to the steaming element.

An electric grill configured for cooking food and a method of cooking food using the electric grill includes a housing that defines an open interior and an aperture. Element frames are positioned at the sides of the open interior. Electric heating elements are positioned within the element frames and are positioned within the open interior exterior of the aperture in a direction towards the housing. The electric heating elements generate IR energy that is directed towards a middle of the open interior below the aperture. Heat energy exits the housing through the aperture by radiative heat transfer and convective heat transfer. Such convective heat transfer includes air currents circulating within the open interior past the electric heating elements and out of the aperture.

A griddle system includes one or more of a variety of performance-enhancing structures and functions. For example, an adjustable latching mechanism may provide for mechanical advantage when closing the griddle, particularly when the griddle is used to compress food items. An adjustable electromagnet and adjustable ferrous plate may cooperate to help hold the griddle in the closed position. The griddle may also feature a heated upper platen with efficient and robust cable routing features.

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.

A cooking system includes a housing having a hollow interior and a container disposable within the hollow interior and including a bottom surface. The container defines a container cavity for receiving food to be cooked. A support body is positionable within the hollow interior to support food. The support body is disposable within the container cavity. The container cavity includes a clearance area between a bottom of the support body and the bottom surface of the container. A heating element operably coupled to the support body.

A cooking appliance includes a housing, a cooking area or volume on or in the housing and a heater assembly for heating the cooking area or volume. The heater assembly includes a heater plate body with a surface having at least one groove therein. The groove includes both a deformable metal sheet element and a resistive heater element therein. The deformable metal sheet element is pressed between an outer surface portion of the resistive heater element and a surface portion of the groove to provide a thermal transfer path from the resistive heating element and to the heater plate body through the deformable metal sheet element.
