Abstract

A cooking unit includes an oven with a drawer. For storage and for transporting a folded truncated pyramidal firebox, a folded truncated pyramidal support member, a diffuser, a grill, a griddle, a windbreak and cover are disposed over the oven. The cover is releasably secured to the top of the oven and the folded truncated pyramidal firebox, the folded truncated pyramidal support member, the diffuser, the grill, the griddle and the windbreak are retained therebetween in a compact form. In use, the oven with the drawer may be employed as the base of the cooking unit or, in the alternative, the oven may be disposed above the extended truncated pyramidal firebox, the extended truncated pyramidal support member and the diffuser. In the alternate arrangement, the cover serves as the base for the cooking unit.
