Abstract:
1. A combination griddle and modular grilling frame comprising: the grilling frame being thermally conductive and having a longitudinal dimension defined by first and second laterally opposed side walls, a transverse dimension defined by longitudinally opposed first and second end walls, and a lowermost portion forming a perimeter foot; a transverse divider extending between the side walls dividing the grilling frame into a first cooking region and a second separate longitudinally adjacent cooking region; a thermally conductive griddle surface forming the first cooking region, extending between the first longitudinal end wall, the transverse divider, the first side wall, and the second side wall; wherein the transverse divider extends vertically above the griddle surface a second cooking region bounded by the second longitudinal end wall, the transverse divider, and the first side wall and the second side wall; wherein the second cooking region comprises a surface defining an insert shelf, the insert shelf forming an edge of a hole through a bottom of the second cooking region; wherein the second cooking region includes opposing vertical surfaces surrounding and adjacent to the insert shelf to form a recess to support a cooking grate; the cooking grate removably positioned on the insert shelf covering the second cooking region; wherein the transverse divider extends vertically above the griddle surface and the cooking grate; and wherein the upper surface of the cooking grate is at the same vertical level with, and laterally adjacent the upper surface of the griddle surface.
