  • Patent number: 9045277
    Abstract: A microwavable container comprising a top cover, a middle pan having at least one hole, and a bottom basin. The top cover, the middle pan, and the bottom basin are biodegradable being formed from a processed and shaped Monocotylendon plant of the Poales order. The top cover fits on top of the middle pan, wherein the middle pan fits on top of the bottom basin. The middle pan is designed so that fatty meats are positioned on top of the middle pan and below the top cover during microwave operations for cooking the fatty meats. During microwave operations, the top cover prevents spatter from the fatty meats being cooked from gathering on an interior of a microwave. During microwave operations, the bottom basin catches liquid residue from the fatty meats being cooked. The liquid residue drips through the one or more holes of the middle pan.

  • Publication number: 20110186567
    Abstract: A novel food cooker, especially for bacon, sausage patties and the like, and a method for microwave oven preparation of the same. The cooker includes a top cover, middle pan, and bottom basin each made of a biodegradable material wherein food may be packaged, displayed, and later cooked in a microwave oven without handling. The cooker is especially designed to aid removal of grease and other food drippings from the food while being cooked. The top cover prevents grease splatter in the microwave. The middle pan holds food and includes holes to allow grease or other food drippings to fall by gravity to the bottom basin which is adjoined to the middle pan. The used cooker also prevents the handling and contained food articles, and prevents exposure to hot grease and drippings during disposal.
