ABSTRACT:
A smoking and baking apparatus which is characterized by a cabinet having an outer shell and an inner shell that define a smoke channel therebetween. A firebox is located in the bottom of the cabinet and a pair of spaced flanges are positioned over the firebox for receiving a removable water pan. One or more doors close the cooking chamber of the cabinet, which cooking chamber is located above the firebox and is defined by the inner shell. A separate door closes the firebox and the water pan separates the firebox from the cooking chamber. A vertical duct or chimney is provided in the cabinet channel, which chimney opens to the smoking chamber at the lower end of the inner shell above the water pan and to the atmosphere at the upper end of the outer shell. When the water pan is resting on the spaced flanges over the firebox beneath the cooking chamber, smoke generated in the firebox is diverted by the water pan upwardly into the channel formed by the outer shell and the inner shell. The smoke then travels from the channel downwardly into the cooking chamber, across food located on removable shelves or trays in the cooking chamber and upwardly through the chimney to the atmosphere. Smoking and baking are effected in the cooking chamber of the apparatus when the water pan is in place, while barbequing and grilling may be accomplished with the water pan removed, wherein smoke and heat are introduced directly into the cooking chamber.
