  • Publication number: 20080135039
    Abstract: A high-moisture food cooker is provided that has an upright tubular food-receiving housing having a top edge, a sidewall, and a bottom edge. A fuel support is positioned in the housing and is vertically spaced from the bottom edge for receiving and supporting a carbonaceous fuel such as charcoal during a cooking process. A plurality of spaced-apart side vents are formed and positioned in the sidewalls of the housing proximate the fuel support for allowing a free flow of air from outside the housing onto the fuel. A food support is positioned in use on the fuel support and is adapted to space and support the food above the fuel during the cooking process. The food support has a sufficient surface area to support the food while allowing free heat flow from the fuel onto the food.
