A hardened or flexible tool created for cleaning, removing debris, preventing brush debris from being left on a surface, preventing flare ups and fires for all users of grate(s) with particular application to grates being used in grills, can be formed from a hardened material for the added cleaning ability and safety for all users of grill grates, grates, grills or the like. The handle may be of any material, shape, size, color, holes, indentions or composition and may or may not be attached by chemical bond, friction fit, snap fit, bolt on, or the like. The molding/forming, stamping, cutting creation of the device can include but is not limited to laser cutting, water jetting, molding, forming and stamping. The device can be formed from a composition which may include, but is not limited to steel, stainless steel, metal, plastic, wood, rubber, plastic and synthetics.

One or more techniques and/or systems are disclosed for an ignition control module for a gas appliance. The housing of the ignition control module, and/or the mounting points for mounting the module to a gas appliance, can be configured to dispose the battery in a manner that provides for potential battery leakage to flow away from most operable components of the module. Further, the ignitor connection terminals can be configured to provide for ease of connection, by providing a connector guide disposed in a cylindrically shaped terminal housing. Additionally, an ignitor actuator terminal can be configured to selectable engage with an ignitor actuator connector, where the ignitor actuator terminal comprises at least two connector points that engage with a single ignitor actuator connector.

A slicer is provided herein that includes a pair of parallel planar arms having a proximal end and a distal end, each of the arms coupled to each other at the proximal end via a hinge connection and at the distal end via a cutting wire. The apparatus is configured to be operated between a first position in which the pair of planar arms are essentially parallel to each other and a second position in which the pair of planar arms are squeezed closer to each other, and where the cutting wire is sufficiently rigid to maintain the distance at the distal end of the apparatus between the first and second positions.

The present disclosure relates to a bag for separating fluids with differing densities. In particular the disclosure relates to a kitchen utensil that can use to separate, for example, gravy or pan juices from cooking fat. The bag includes upper and lower openings and an upper handle. Cooking juices can be placed into the bag via the upper opening. Once closed, the fat will rise while the gravy collects at the bottom of the bag adjacent the lower closure. The lower closure can then be opened to let out the gravy.

A container is for storing kitchen and cooking utensils (in an upright orientation). The container is preferably heat-resistant to enable use on a stove. The container is further configured for establishing, in operational use, a releasable connection between the container and a pan, such as a casserole or pot. The container comprises a releasable coupling for establishing the releasable connection between the container and the pan. The releasable coupling comprises a corner or hook for being hung over an edge of the pan in operational. use.

What is disclosed an improved spatula-tong combination culinary tool, wherein the tong member is coupled to the spatula member in a way such that the tong member is movable to and from one side of the spatula member via a hinged/pivotable/rotatable coupling, and wherein the hinged/pivotable/rotatable coupling is disposed such that the tong member can bias food from a cooking surface onto the spatula from the side of the spatula and the axis of rotation of the tong member is orthogonal with respect to the planar surface of the spatula. In variations, the tool-heads of the improved culinary tool are detachably removable and changeable to other tool members, including the ability to interchange the positions of the spatula member and the tong member, in case a user prefers to bias target food items onto the spatula member from one side or another.

A cooking utensil for securing a food article over a heat source, including an elongate member extending to a fork head, the fork head comprising a first segment having a generally circular portion, the first segment extending to a second segment having at least two prongs.

Devices and methods to heat food over an open flame are disclosed. An example food warming device includes a fork and pan used together to evenly distribute heat into solid food, minimize direct heat from the flame to the food, and reduce the chance of igniting the food.

A personal food delivery apparatus and method includes a utensil with a handle end and a food end where the food end is a flat surface. A food retaining device is connected with the food end where the food retaining device retains food on the food retaining device.
