ABSTRACT:
A belt grill or belt cooking apparatus, of the general type previously known for rapidly cooking meat, grilled sandwiches, etc. in a travelling path through the apparatus, has improvements enabling the belt cooking grill to impart grill stripes or grill patterns on the product as it is cooked. In one embodiment the improved belt cooking apparatus has upper and lower heat platens with ridges or other types of embossings, with the moving belts being formed of a flexible material capable of good heat transfer and good wear resistance at elevated temperatures. The ridges or embossings press the belt into the food product, causing greater heat transfer at the ridges than between them, and thus forming a series of grill stripes on the product while the product is also cooked. In another embodiment, the belts are formed of stainless steel, with corrugations, embossings or ridges which press directly against the moving feed product as it is cooked, to effect grill stripes due to greater heat transfer along the lines of pressure.
