Abstract

An improved removable cooking surface assembly for the upper movable heated platen of a two-sided cooking device is disclosed. The assembly includes a planar rigid heat conducting metal plate which is coated on its lower surface with a layer of non-stick synthetic plastic material. The coated platen is removably connected with the heated platen and extends in contiguous relation across the lower surface thereof for uniform heat transfer from the platen to the food product being cooked. Following cooking of the product when upper platen is raised, the food product remains on the lower grill surface since the coating of the upper surface prevents the product from sticking thereto. After extended use, the cooking surface assembly is easily removed from the upper movable platen for refurbishing or replacement.
