Abstract: A cooking apparatus and method for use of the same are disclosed that utilize forced convection and radiant heating cooking. In one embodiment, the cooking apparatus includes an oven housing defining a cooking chamber, a circulation chamber, and a catalyst chamber. The catalyst chamber is superposed to the circulation chamber and the circulation chamber is superposed to the cooking chamber. Heating elements are located in at least one of the cooking chamber and the circulation chamber. An airflow circulation loop is located between the cooking chamber and the circulation chamber. An exhaust airflow path is provided from the circulation chamber to the catalyst chamber to an exterior of the oven housing. A fan subassembly is located within the oven housing and the fan subassembly circulates convection air along the airflow circulation loop with a portion of the convection air being diverted into the exhaust airflow path.
