ABSTRACT:
A heated platen with a downwardly-facing surface is provided with an upwardly-accessible handle, and with coordinately height-adjustable legs, the feet of which are adapted to stand on a grill as a food product such as a hamburger patty is simultaneously cooked from below by the grill and from above by the heated platen. By preference, the downwardly-facing heated surface is covered by a replaceable non-stick surface layer in the form of polytetrafluoroethylene-impregnated glass fiber cloth. The platen preferably is heated by on-board electrical resistance heating units, controlled from an off-board control panel to which it is connected by leads from an on-board temperature sensor, and an electrical power cable. Where the device is intended for use in a limited menu restaurant, an adjuster for the leg length may be calibrated by product designation, so that a user need only move the adjuster knob to a designation corresponding to the food being cooked in order to place the platen at the correct height above the grill cooking surface for contacting and lightly pressing down on the food without applying excessive compression.
