ABSTRACT:
An outdoor cooker has a rectangular metal cooking tank for holding a cooking liquid to be heated by a flame from a burner mounted beneath the cooking tank and includes a cooked food drain plate having an edge secured at a predetermined angle to the rear upper edge of the cooking tank so that cooking liquid from cooked food on the drain plate drains into the cooking tank with the cooked food drain plate being adapted to being heated by wasted heat from the burner. A domed cover minimizes heat loss from cooked food on the cooked food drain tray and prevents access to the cooked food by insects, grass, dirt, leaves, etc. The domed cover is preferably hingably connected to the edge of the drain plate remote from the upper edge of the cooking tank. A cooking tank cover, constituted by a flat metal plate having an area complimentary to the cross-sectional area of the open top of the cooking tank has a handle on the upper surface thereof and at least one depending flange for hooking the cooking tank cover from the front edge of the cooking tank while the cook is inspecting food being cooked. Several cooking tanks may be provided, each with a separate burner for each tank, and separate control for each burner so that different foods and different preparation styles may be used in each tank.
