The invention relates to an outdoor cooking device with the features of the preamble of the independent claims.

Outdoor cooking devices are known in a variety of different forms of training.

Thus, it is known in particular to design cooking devices for the alternative preparation of meals by frying, cooking or baking. In particular, devices are known in which at the same time an operation as a grill or as an oven, in particular for preparing pizzas, is conceivable. For this purpose, it is known to use additional inserts in a grill, which are adapted to the ent speaking form of preparation. WO 2009/036489 A1 shows a grill arrangement in which various cooking inserts can be used. A grilling device with a grill insert and with a pizza insert is also known from WO 2010/063992 A1, WO 2007/103524 A2 or WO 2012/123875 A1.

However, these devices are all consuming in handling and in particular require the use of additional Kochein rates.

From EP 2 845 528 A2 a multi-purpose cooking arrangement is known in which a rotatably mounted cooking unit at the same time the Verwen tion as a grill, as a roasting surface and as a high-temperature stone for baking allowed. This arrangement is structurally complex and requires a lot of space.

Another problem with such cooking devices is because there is a risk of burns, especially when manipulating the food, for example when turning Grill food or when taking baked pizza or baked bread. From US 2014/0261012 Al a grill is known which has a plurality of grill modules. A grill grate is movable between a first position above a heating element and a second position that is not above the heating element. A hinged flap allows the partial opening of a grill room. By opening the door but also an access to the interior of the grill room is released, whereby the risk of burns.

It is therefore an object of the present invention, the After parts of the known to avoid, in particular a Kochvorrich device to create, which allows in a simple way the Verwen training for different types of preparation and which prevents the risk of burns.

According to the invention, these and other objects are achieved with a cooking device having the features of the independent claims.

The inventive cooking device has at least one ers te and at least one further preparation unit. The ers te and the further preparation unit are designed for preparing food according to a first and a different, wide ren preparation. The cooking device has a common preparation space, which is shared by the first and the further preparation unit. In particular, the first and the further preparation unit also have a common heating device. It is in the present case an outdoor cooking device. Typically, the heater is therefore a gas burner. But other heaters are just in case conceivable, especially electric heaters or heating with wood, coal or a gasoline carburetor. According to the invention at least parts of the further Zuberei processing unit within the cooking device are movable and guided between an active preparation position within the preparation space Zube and an inactive position outside of the preparation room Zube arranged. Thanks to this arrangement, it is possible in a simple way to use the cooking device optionally in the first and the further preparation by the further cooking unit is moved between its active and its inactive position. Due to the guided arrangement, the change between the types of preparation is easy. It is not necessary to remove any preparation units or parts thereof. It is sufficient to move to the inactive position. Due to the guided attachment and the handling is a fold.

For this purpose, the cooking device preferably has a first guide. The movable preparation unit is then displaceable along this first guide between the inactive position and the active preparation position. The shift takes place in particular in a horizontal direction. As a result, ver relatively heavy parts of preparation units can be moved easily and without much effort.

Preferably, the first and the further movable Zuberei processing unit on a common cover. The cover encloses the movable preparation unit when it is in the active preparation position. In particular, the cover is insulated so that high temperatures can be achieved, as in an oven.

According to a preferred embodiment, the first preparation unit has a grill grate and / or the further, movable bare preparation unit is designed as a second preparation unit with a heat-storing pad. The heat-storing backing is in particular a pizza stone. By inserting the pizza stone in particular within an iso profiled cover so a pizza oven can be formed. By removing the pizza stone from the active preparation position within the common cover of the grill grate is freigege ben and the device can be used as a conventional grill. The pizza stone is thus arranged in the active preparation po sition especially above the grill, so that the pizza stone points against the preparation room and the grill is rust between the heater and pizza stone.

Particularly preferred in this context, the second preparation unit is guided on both sides on guide rails. Above all, in relatively heavy preparation units such as mesa-storing documents, in particular pizza stones, a two-sided guidance allows a simple movement without the risk of tilting and without excessive friction.
