Claims13
A device for rapidly cooking food, comprising:
- an upper enclosure member and a lower enclosure member, the lower enclosure member comprising a circumferential side wall and an interconnected lower wall, wherein the upper and lower enclosure members form a cooking chamber;
- air-moving means for moving air inside the cooking chamber;
- heating means for heating the air inside the cooking chamber;
- a food rack located inside the cooking chamber for supporting the food;
- and
- a base liner for catching droppings from the food during cooking, the base liner comprising a bottom wall and an outwardly extending flange, wherein the circumferential wall of the lower enclosure member removably supports the outwardly extending flange of the base liner such that the bottom wall of the base liner is below the food rack and above the lower wall of the lower enclosure member, thereby defining an air space between the bottom wall of the base liner and the lower wall of the lower enclosure member.
