Abstract
A Dutch oven divider assembly includes a plurality of buckets that is each insertable into a Dutch oven. The buckets define a plurality of compartments in the Dutch oven to facilitate the Dutch oven to simultaneously cook a variety of foods. A coupler is attached to a respective one of the buckets. The coupler releasably engages an adjacent one of the buckets with respect to the respective bucket for attaching the respective bucket and the adjacent bucket together.
Claims10
A Dutch oven divider assembly being configured to divide a Dutch oven into a plurality of compartments for simultaneous cooking a variety of foods, said assembly comprising:
- a plurality of buckets, each of said buckets being insertable into a Dutch oven, said buckets conforming to each other in the Dutch oven to define a plurality of compartments in the Dutch oven wherein said plurality of buckets is configured to facilitate the Dutch oven to simultaneously cook a variety of foods, each of said buckets being fluidly discrete from each other when said buckets are positioned in the Dutch oven wherein said buckets are configured to inhibit the variety of foods from mixing with each other, each of said buckets being comprised of a thermally conductive material such that said buckets are in thermal communication with the Dutch oven wherein said buckets are configured to cook the variety of foods, said plurality of buckets releasably engaging each other when said buckets are positioned in the Dutch oven;
- and
- a coupler being attached to respective one of said buckets, said coupler releasably engaging an adjacent one of said buckets with respect to said respective bucket for attaching said respective bucket and said adjacent bucket together.
A Dutch oven divider assembly being configured to divide a Dutch oven into a plurality of compartments for simultaneous cooking a variety of foods, said assembly comprising:
- a plurality of buckets, each of said buckets being insertable into a Dutch oven, said buckets conforming to each other in the Dutch oven to define a plurality of compartments in the Dutch oven wherein said plurality of buckets is configured to facilitate the Dutch oven to simultaneously cook a variety of foods, each of said buckets being fluidly discrete from each other when said buckets are positioned in the Dutch oven wherein said buckets are configured to inhibit the variety of foods from mixing with each other, each of said buckets being comprised of a thermally conductive material such that said buckets are in thermal communication with the Dutch oven wherein said buckets are configured to cook the variety of foods, said plurality of buckets releasably engaging each other when said buckets are positioned in the Dutch oven, each of said buckets having a bottom wall and an outer wall extending upwardly therefrom, said outer wall having a distal edge with respect to said bottom wall to define an opening into said buckets, said outer wall having a first side and a second side, said first side being concavely arcuate with respect to said second side thereby facilitating said first side to conform to curvature of an outer wall of the Dutch oven, said second side of said outer wall of said buckets abutting each other when said buckets are positioned in the Dutch oven;
- and
- a coupler being attached to respective one of said buckets, said coupler releasably engaging an adjacent one of said buckets with respect to said respective bucket for attaching said respective bucket and said adjacent bucket together, said coupler being positioned on said second side of said outer wall of said respective bucket, said coupler comprising a leg extending away from said distal edge of said outer wall corresponding to said second side and a foot being spaced from and extending downwardly along said second side to define a coupling space between said foot and said second side, said coupling space insertably receiving said distal edge of said outer wall corresponding to said second side of said adjacent bucket.
A Dutch oven divider system comprising:
- a Dutch oven having an outer wall;
- a plurality of buckets, each of said buckets being insertable into said Dutch oven, said buckets conforming to each other in said Dutch oven to define a plurality of compartments in said Dutch oven wherein said plurality of buckets is configured to facilitate said Dutch oven to simultaneously cook a variety of foods, each of said buckets being fluidly discrete from each other when said buckets are positioned in said Dutch oven wherein said buckets are configured to inhibit the variety of foods from mixing with each other, each of said buckets being comprised of a thermally conductive material such that said buckets are in thermal communication with said Dutch oven wherein said buckets are configured to cook the variety of foods, said plurality of buckets releasably engaging each other when said buckets are positioned in said Dutch oven, each of said buckets having a bottom wall and an outer wall extending upwardly therefrom, said outer wall having a distal edge with respect to said bottom wall to define an opening into said buckets, said outer wall having a first side and a second side, said first side being concavely arcuate with respect to said second side thereby facilitating said first side to conform to curvature of an outer wall of said Dutch oven, said second side of said outer wall of said buckets abutting each other when said buckets are positioned in said Dutch oven;
- and
- a coupler being attached to respective one of said buckets, said coupler releasably engaging an adjacent one of said buckets with respect to said respective bucket for attaching said respective bucket and said adjacent bucket together, said coupler being positioned on said second side of said outer wall of said respective bucket, said coupler comprising a leg extending away from said distal edge of said outer wall corresponding to said second side and a foot being spaced from and extending downwardly along said second side to define a coupling space between said foot and said second side, said coupling space insertably receiving said distal edge of said outer wall corresponding to said second side of said adjacent bucket.
