  • Patent number: 4721037
    Abstract: An apparatus for cooking foods which is a combination of an outdoor grill and an optional smoker attachment. The grill itself is of a type having a container with an open top, a closed bottom, front and rear sidewalls for holding heat-retaining lava rock. A hinged lid which is removable is attached to the grill for retaining heat within the container. A removable grate is selectively disposed inside of the container above the lava rock when the device is to be used as a grill for holding foods directly up above the lava rock and such grate is removable when the device is to be used for smoking foods. When the apparatus is to be used as a smoker, a metal cabinet having a rear wall, a pair of sidewalls connected to the rear wall, a removable front wall and a top wall is placed upon the container and has an open bottom so that the heat from the lava rock will be trapped within such metal cabinet.
