Abstract
Cookware combining two or three cooking sections in one unit. In the first four preferred embodiments, the three sections are a griddle section, a wok section, and a grill section. The griddle section is a flat plate. The wok section is a flat plate having an opening within which a wok may be removably retained. The grill section has bars, with open spaces between the bars. The griddle and wok sections are parts of a single flat plate, the grill section is generally coplanar with the flat plate, and the three sections form a generally rectangular or curvilinear shape. The fifth and sixth preferred embodiments of the invention are substantially the same as the first four embodiments, except that the fifth only includes a wok section and a griddle section, with no grill section, and the sixth only includes a wok section and a grill section, with no griddle section.
