Abstract

A cooking oven has a housing and walls which enclose an oven chamber in which a rotisserie supports food to be cooked. The heat for cooking the food derives from a burner having a plenum and tiles in front of the plenum, with the tiles being exposed to the oven chamber along the upper wall of the chamber and near the rear of the chamber. A removable baffle fits into the oven chamber along the upper wall ahead of the burner and it forms an air duct in which two blowers revolve. The blowers draw air from within chamber into the duct and forces it out of the duct downwardly so that it impinges on the food as the food passes beneath the discharge region of the duct, A deflector keeps the air so discharged for disturbing the flame along the tiles of the burner.
