  • BARBECUE GRILL
    Publication number: 20080264404
    Abstract: A barbecue grill for cooking an object. The barbecue grill includes a number of ribs for supporting the object. Each rib has one or more resistive elements and one or more body portions substantially electrically insulated by an insulator relative to the resistive element. The body portion includes a top surface adapted for engaging the object. Each rib is spaced apart from at least one of the ribs proximal thereto by a predetermined distance to allow liquid escaping from the object to flow between the ribs under the influence of gravity.

  • BARBECUE GRILL
    Publication number: 20080163763
    Abstract: A barbecue grill for barbecuing an object. The barbecue grill includes a number of elongate ribs for supporting the object. The ribs are spaced apart from each other by at least a first predetermined distance to permit liquid from the object to pass between the ribs. The barbecue grill also includes one or more resistive element subassemblies for generating heat to barbecue the object. The resistive element subassembly is positioned at a second predetermined distance below the object.
