Abstract

Disclosed dual temperature sauté stations includes thermal systems to facilitate mobile food preparation using means of refrigeration/heat transfer to and from cold pack thermal systems in thermal communication with refrigeration coils. A sauté station may include an outer foam pack shell enclosing a cold pack layer with thermal tubing disposed within the cold pack layer. The cold pack layer acts as a thermal storage station, sometimes used to cool the thermal tubing and the thermal tubing sometimes used to cool the cold pack layer. The food preparation stations demonstrate further thermal efficiency by use of a buffered or enclosed temperature sensor, with the temperature sensor encased within a thermal layer or shell so as to not immediately react to incoming ambient air when a refrigerator door is opened. Thus, the sensor mimics the temperature of the food avoiding unnecessary cycling of the condenser.
