Abstract: A lid holding device 1 is designed to hold one of a variety of different lids 8 over a pot 6, such as a crock pot. The lid holding device 1 comprises a flat base 2, an extension 3 which can be set to an adjustable angle relative to the base 2, and hold the extension 3 and attachment 4 in a desired leaning angle. The heavy pot and its contents rest on a base 2, stabilizing the device 1. When the lid 8 is removed from the pot 6, the handle 9 of the lid 8 is held by the attachment 4 preventing any touching of the inside of the lid or pot reducing contamination of the inside of the lid and pot. The leaning angle of the extension 4 and the length of the extension and attachment can be adjusted to accommodate different lid sizes and shapes 8, causing each to be held vertically or at an angle above the pot 6.
