By the KIN G's PATENT.
The new invented Salisbury
Portable Kitchens,
For roasting, boiling, and baking any Kind
of Provision,
In any Room, or in the Open Air,
Without the Assistance of a common Fire- place,
And which may be removed from Place to Place, at
Plcafure.
Y the peculiar advantages of this invention, a com
ity, plete dinner may be expeditiously dressed, with a very
little expence or trouble. A joint may be roasted, and
another boiled, with vegetables and puddings, ail at the
fame time. The meat roasted in this kitchen is esteemed
fweetcr than when done in the common way, and on fair
trial hrs been found to retain considerably more of its
original weight ; the gravy and fat being better preserved.
When a dinner is dressed, the fame fire, without addi
tion, will bake a loaf in one part, and pies, tarts, cakes,
rolls or muffins, in the other, at the fame time.
The Salisbury Portable Kitchen consists of an enclosed
fire-place, a cover, a bread-plate to hang to the cover, and
a tart-plate, which terves also for a blower; these are of
plate-iron : In the front, a strong tin reflector for roast
ing, with spit, dripping-fan, and bafler ; and on the top
a strong tin bailing pot, and a steamer,
Very few experiments will convince every person that
the use of this machine requires no observations but those
which occur in cooking at every common fire ; but as new
inventions are often complicated, the following account
is given of the real simplicity of this.
A peek of charcoal will serve for two draftings; if it
is good, large, solid coal, it will be the better for' the pur
pose; use the smallest ofit to light the fire, and hang on
the tart plate to draw it up ; put on the boiling pot im
rcediately the fire is lighted, and lay on a few pieces of
larger coal; a briik fire will soon make the water boil;
but to prevent waste of charcoal, do not keep the drawer
on longer than appears needful ; put to the Reflector with
the meat at the usual time ; keep an even fire, by occa
sionally adding a piece of charcoal, but be careful not to
make the fire tco fierce,--- remember the refle&or does
half the business. The meat is roasting in all parts at
once, and without any hurrying will be compUatly done
witbin the common time. The spit may be shifted once
in a quarter of an hour, and the meat basted as usual.
Th: exhalations from the meat are all drawn off through
the fire, which renders this method of roasting perfectly
fweer ; the dripping and grave) are entirely screened from
the fire; and instead of being rancid, as usual, are pre
ferred as fwe:t as butter, the good effects of which will
be perceived in the flivour of the meat.
When meat, puddings, or vegetables are put into the
tolling water, if in hatte, open the door of the iefleaor
and blow the fire gently, or put an end or two of flick on
tie fire, to make a blaze, and the boiling will be instantly
recovered,
To preserve the kitchen---Lct the tin-work be clean
wiffied and kept dry ; the inside of the reflector thould be
kept as clean as poffihle, which is heft done by fcowering
it occaSonally with toilers ezrih---Ufe no sand. The
iron part must be. kept in a dry place, and once or twice a
year, while the fire is in, rub the out, fide with a bit of
suet, and when cold clean it off with cloth ; with this
little oreevery part of the kitchen may be preferred many
years.
The above Kitchens are to be fold by
SMIT H, and Co.
k o . 30, QUEEN-STREET.
When dinner is taken up, put the tart-plate into the
refle&or, and set on it puddings, pies, tarts, custards, muf
finSfcrolls, or any thing to bakty fume of which mg be
done in time for dinner; the embers of the charcoal will
be- fufficie.it without any addition. A loaf, or a pye, may
be baked on the loaf-plate at the feme time, or if not
wanted, the iron cover only may be put on.
Those who thufe it may have added to the kitchen, a
gridiron the whole breadth of the rsfle&er, which fixes
in the place of the spit, withan additional flat tin rcicc
to% extending obliquely from the back edge of the grid
iron to the bottom of the front of the principal refle&or ;
on th : s gridiron may be dreffid rump desks, mutton
chop!, or fcvcral kinds of fiffi, in the most delicious man-
