A compound eco-friendly stove includes a main body, a baking tray support, a baking tray, a butterfly style burner assembly, a grill grate, a grease guide plate, a grease pan, and a lift handle. The main body is provided, on a top, with a first cover and a second cover, which define therebetween an airflow passage. The baking tray support supports the baking tray thereon and is formed with multiple through holes at two sides of the baking tray. The butterfly style burner assembly, the grill grate, the grease guide plate, and the grease pan are disposed sequentially under the baking tray support. An upper compartment oven is formed between the baking tray support and the first and second covers and a lower compartment grill is formed between the butterfly style burner assembly and the grill grate.

A granule burning grill includes a body, a burning chamber, and a grill grate. The burning chamber and the grill grate are disposed inside the body. The grill grate is provided above the burning chamber. A side portion of the body is provided with a feeding opening for the granular fuel. A heat collecting mechanism located in the body is provided between the grill grate and the burning chamber. A ceramic plate module is provided between the heat collecting mechanism and the grill grate.

A side shelf system configured to couple to a portable cooking station. The side shelf system includes a side shelf and a cutting board. The side shelf includes an upper surface that defines a rectangular opening therein. The side shelf includes at least two extensions that extend from the opening, each extension having a ledge. The cutting board is sized to be positioned in the rectangular opening, the cutting board having an upward facing surface with a through hole defined therein. The cutting board includes a depth such that, upon positioning the cutting board over the ledge, the upward facing surface of the cutting board is substantially flush with the upper surface of the side shelf.

A device utilizes charcoal for cooking food, and is adapted for lighting the charcoal by placement on a conventional gas grill. The device includes a food-receiving plate/grill, a charcoal platform, and an ash platform/tray. The device is adapted so that, with the ash tray removed and the device resting on the gas grill, heat from the gas flames ignites the charcoal resting on the charcoal platform. Upon the ignition of the charcoal, the gas grill may be turned off, the ash tray may be inserted into the device underneath the charcoal platform to catch the charcoal ash, and the device may remain on the gas grill or be moved to another table/surface as the charcoal-only cooking proceeds. The charcoal platform may be stationary in one location, or movable to multiple locations, between the bottom extremity of the device and the food-receiving grill member(s) at the top of the device.

The disclosure relates to a gas grill and control method thereof. The gas grill comprises a housing defining a cooking chamber, a plurality of cooking zones in the cooking chamber, wherein each of the plurality of cooking zones is corresponding to at least one heating module, a gas supply module configured to provide gas to the at least one heating module of each of the plurality of cooking zones, a control module configured to control the gas supply module and the at least one heating module corresponding to each of the plurality of cooking zones based on a control input, and a user interface configured to generate the control input, wherein the control module is further configured to group at least two of the plurality of cooking zones to a cooking group based on the control input and control the heating modules corresponding to the cooking group based on the control input.

An outdoor cooking station configured to keep cooked food warm within a warming chamber of the cooking station. The cooking station includes a main body with frame components and panels, the panels coupled to the frame components so as to extend and define the warming chamber, the warming chamber positioned below heating elements supported by the main body. The warming chamber is fixedly positioned relative to the heating elements. The main body includes a door pivotably coupled to the main body and positioned along a front side of the main body, the door pivotably moveable between an open position and a closed position. With this arrangement, the door facilitates access to the warming chamber to place cooked food therein.

In an embodiment, a grill is provided. The grill can include a grill cart and a burner box. The grill cart configured to be transitioned between an upright state and a folded state. The coupling between a first side frame and a base is located in a first plane that is substantially parallel with a plane defined by a bottom plate of the base, and the coupling between a second side frame and the bottom plate of the base is located in a second plane that is substantially parallel with the plane defined by the bottom plate. The first plane is located a first distance away from the plane defined by the bottom plate and the second plane is located a second distance away from the plane defined by the bottom plate. The first distance is not equivalent to the second distance. Other embodiments are also included herein.
