Patent ID: 7021201

Claim:
A gas grill comprising: a) a housing; b) gas delivery means for delivering a flammable gas into said housing; c) a control means in operational connection with said gas delivery means, said control means adapted to regulate the rate of flow of said flammable gas through said gas delivery means; d) a food holder carried by said housing, said holder having a width; and e) a baffle assembly mounted in said housing, said baffle assembly and said food holder being in spaced relation to said gas delivery means so that, when said flammable gas is delivered into said housing and to said baffle assembly by said control means, and said gas is burned to produce exhaust gases, said exhaust gases from said gas move from said gas delivery means through said baffle assembly and across said food holder, wherein said baffle assembly further comprises a front and an opposing reflector shield, said front being curved toward said reflector shield to define a linear nozzle over the location where said gas is burned, which linear nozzle further increases the velocity of said exhaust gases, said reflector shield being frictionally held by said housing so that said reflector can be lifted free of housing for cleaning.
