A grill system is disclosed and may include a grate comprising a plurality of grill members. The grate may include a stationary region and a chute aperture. The grill system may further include a chute comprising a chute top portion and a chute bottom portion. The chute may engage the grate by traversing through the chute aperture. The perimeter of the chute aperture may be reinforced by a secondary member.

A cooking appliance apparatus includes a fan unit, a sensor unit designed to detect an electrical fan parameter of the fan unit, a filter unit allocated to the fan unit, and a control unit designed to determine a filter parameter of the filter unit in dependence upon the fan parameter.

An electrical cooking device is disclosed, including a lower frame and an upper frame which are articulated about a pivot axis. The lower and upper frames each include: a removable cooking plate a heating resistor a peripheral heat reflection plate and a heat reflection plate for heat resistance

The upper frame has at least one insulating plate and the lower frame has a main drip port in the lower peripheral heat reflection plate. This main drip port is configured to discharge liquids generated, during use, into a receptacle located below the lower frame. The cooking plates are set back from the peripheral heat reflection plates.

Provided for is a waffle maker comprising a top plate bound by a top body and a bottom plate bound by a bottom body, a cavity bound by the top plate and the bottom plate, the cavity configured to accept a batter, and a reservoir bound by a top plate reservoir trench and a bottom plate reservoir trench. The waffle maker may further comprise a sliding crescent gate bound by a top plate inner rim and a bottom plate inner rim, where the top plate inner rim is configured to rise as the batter expands.

A waffle iron plate for forming a waffle having multiple scores, the plate comprising a base having a front surface and at least two spaced-apart ribs extending from the front surface of the base and configured to form the scores, whereby the waffle may be folded along the scores so as to have a bottom portion and two side portions.

The present utility model discloses an air fryer, which comprises a housing and at least two cooking chambers installed inside the housing; every cooking chamber is internally equipped with an electric heating device, every cooking chamber is fixed with an independent motor frame, on the top of every motor frame is fixed with a motor; a heat insulating cavity is formed between the motor frame and the cooking chamber, the output shaft of every motor passes downward through the corresponding heat insulating cavity and extends into the corresponding cooking chamber, the output shaft of motor is connected with the first fan blade inside the cooking chamber and the first fan blade is located above the electric heating device.

A cooking apparatus includes a base, a cover with a hot air system, an inner pot, an upper temperature sensor located in the lid, and a lower temperature sensor located in the base. A processor is configured to operate in one of multiple cooking modes, and for each of the cooking modes the processor is configured to measure an upper and a lower temperature using the upper and the lower temperature sensor, respectively; compare the upper and the lower temperature to an upper and a lower temperature sensor setting, respectively; when the upper temperature differs from the upper temperature sensor setting, adjust power to the hot air heating element such that the upper temperature approaches the upper temperature sensor setting; and when the lower temperature differs from the lower temperature sensor setting, adjust power to the heating plate such that the lower temperature approaches the lower temperature sensor setting.

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.

A system, device and method of a griddle with structure configured to minimize the effects of thermal stress and strain. The griddle extends to define a flat cooking surface and an oppositely facing underside surface. The underside surface extends to define a front end, a rear end, a first end, and a second end, the front end extending parallel with the rear end, the first end extending parallel with the second end. The underside surface includes a reinforcement structure directly secured thereto. The reinforcement structure extends with diagonal reinforcement portions such that the diagonal reinforcement portions are elongated and longitudinally extend transverse along the underside surface relative to each of the front end, the rear end, the first end and the second end of the underside surface of the griddle.

Provided is a cooking apparatus, preferably including a plurality of heating plates for contact cooking. The cooking time is determined by selecting a desired degree of cooking of the food. After estimating the surface area occupied by the food on one of the heating plates, said cooking time is calculated on the basis of the desired degree of cooking, the thickness of the food, and the surface area occupied by the food.
