Abstract

A cooking grill for cooking food with heat supplied by a heat source within the grill includes a substantially rectangular box structure which defines an open top chamber, and a lid which is connected to the box structure and is adapted to cover the chamber. A food supporting rack is positioned within said chamber and is connected to said box structure. The food supporting rack covers a first area of the chamber. A first burner is positioned within a second area of the chamber, with the second area being spaced laterally from the first area. With the burner being spaced from the food supporting rack, drippings from the food do not fall onto the burner. This eliminates smoke and excessive flames which can burn the food.
