Cooking apparatus ventilation system with recycling air flow

摘要

A cooking apparatus ventilation system which evacuates smoke and vapors to allow indoor cooking. Air is evacuated through ventilation channels which surround all but one side of the cooking surface. A layer of air is directed from the fourth side across the cooking surface to push the smoke and vapor into the ventilation channels. A portion of the evacuated air is recycled back across the cooking surface to enhance the flavor of the food being cooked.
