Abstract

Provided is a broil burner including a generally-tubular gas conduit configured to extend between a rearward region of an oven cavity and a forward region of the oven cavity. The gas conduit includes an inlet that cooperates with a gas source to convey a combustible gas from the gas source to the gas conduit, and a plurality of apertures through which the combustible gas exits the gas conduit to be combusted. A reflector is provided, and extends between opposing segments of the gas conduit to reflect heat generated by combustion of the combustible gas in a downward direction, generally toward a central region of the oven cavity.
