Benefits of technology

[0009] It is, therefore, one of the primary objects of the present invention to provide a disposable liner for a cooking tray so as to make clean up easy.

Problems solved by technology

Cooking of bacon and other fatty meats which produce significant quantities of grease during the cooking process has always created a problem.
Regardless of the mode of cooking, the resulting grease presents a problem.
There is always a messy clean up whenever these foods are cooked.
Regardless of the mode of cooking all methods produce some volume of grease that must be disposed of after cooking along with the mess that accompanies cooking these foods.
This mode leaves little means for removing the grease other than pouring it off at certain intervals.
In the cooking of bacon or sausage in a microwave paper towels or other absorbent pads have been used to absorb the grease during cooking but this process is still not totally satisfactory.

[0040] Illustrated in FIGS. 1-4 is an apparatus, generally designated 10, which includes a plastic cooking tray 2 having a substantially rectangular shape and a disposable liner 4 for such plastic cooking tray. Such disposable liner 4 conforms to the shape of the plastic cooking tray 2. The cooking tray 2 has a well 6 at one end to collect grease from cooking of fatty foods such as bacon. The disposable plastic liner 4 also has a well portion 8 that conforms to the well portion 6 of the plastic tray 2. Thus, any grease generated from the cooking of fatty foods will collect in the well portion 8 of the disposable liner. In an embodiment of the invention such well portion 8 includes an abso...
