Each section has a bottom wall, opposed side walls and opposed end walls. One of the cooking sections has a heat generating element secured therein beneath a heat transmitting support frame. The other concave section has a gas burner assembly supportable on the bottom wall thereof below a further heat transmitting support frame. The assembly has an open top end pan with a gas burner element disposed substantially centrally therein. A flame shield is disposed over the burner. A secondary heat deflection support plate maintains the pan spaced from the bottom wall and the side and end walls. The pan is also ventilated by vent openings provided in the side and end walls of the cooking section.
