The handle is removably coupled to the bracket and includes a handle body and a release tab. The release tab is coupled to the handle body and configured to move between a secure position and a release position, wherein moving the release tab to the release position causes the release tab to disengage the bridge to decouple the handle from the bracket. The handle can couple to a plurality of various cooking vessels. The handle can include an alignment tab coupled to the handle body and configured to slide within the slot.
