A method of flameless broiling or baking in a tunnel oven of greasy meat products, which method comprises the steps of heating the interior tunnel surfaces of the tunnel oven to provide for cooking of the meat products in the tunnel oven by infrared radiant energy emitted directly from the surfaces, entrapping a substantially quiescent, oxygen-starved heated tunnel atmosphere having a slight overpressure within the tunnel oven, conveying the meat products through the tunnel atmosphere within the tunnel oven by first carrying the meat products upwardly at an angle inclined to the horizontal through an open entrance of the tunnel oven and into the atmosphere, carrying them along the length of the tunnel oven within the tunnel atmosphere while heating the meat products by the emission of infrared radiation directly from the interior tunnel surfaces resulting from the heating thereof, and subsequently conveying them downwardly at an angle inclined to the horizontal out of the tunnel atmosphere through an open exit of the tunnel oven, the emission temperatures being within the range of from about 200 DEG F. to about 1200 DEG F.
