Abstract: A device for supporting the hinged cover of a barbecue brazier partially open in any one of a plurality of selected positions comprises an elongated planar support member having a plurality of upwardly orientated cover hooks along its length for selectively engaging the rim of the partially opened cover, and a downwardly facing mounting member or hook adjacent one of its ends for mounting the support member vertically on the rim of the brazier. A handle member is permanently or removably attached to the support member for handling the support member when it has become hot through use. The handle member in one embodiment is secured to the support member by means of a screw threaded projection on the handle member which engages a screw threaded bore in the support member.

Abstract: A device for use in supporting the hinged cover of a barbecue brazier partially open at a selected position. An elongated planar support member mounts vertically on the rim of the brazier and is held in place by a mounting bracket formed adjacent its lower end. A plurality of upwardly oriented cover hooks are formed in the support member along its length and project therefrom to support the rim of the partially opened cover on a selected hook. The support member has a slot therethrough for receiving the end of a tool used for positioning the support member with safety when the support member has become hot through use. Two embodiments of the device are disclosed with differing support member mounting bracket designs.
