A cooking appliance has a timer removably attached to the cooking appliance by a dove-tail joint. The cooking appliance has a lid with a lid handle located on a top of the lid. The lid handle has a first portion of the dove-tail joint and the timer has a second portion of the dove-tail joint. The timer is removably attachable to the cooking appliance by aligning and engaging the first portion of the dove-tail joint of the timer with the second portion of the dove-tail joint of the lid handle. The display and controls are located on a top of the timer. A bottom portion of the timer includes the second portion of the dove-tail joint, and the bottom portion of the timer has a substantially planar bottom surface forming a stable base for the timer when the timer is in a detached state. The bottom portion of the timer extends below the controls of the timer to provide stability for the timer when the timer is operated in the detached state. A projection in one portion of the dove-tail joint engages a recess in the other portion of the dove-tail joint to releasably secure the time to the cooking appliance when in an attached state.
