An assembly of elements is provided for cooking food in a microwave oven. A heat generating member, a chamber forming member, a collector member and optionally a pan member are provided for assembly in various combinations and sub-combinations. The heat generating member has a metal grilling plate and a coating of microwave absorptive material on one surface and is mounted in a microwave transmissive vessel having an upper sealing rim. A microwave transmissive bowl has a rim engageable with the sealing ring to establish a chamber which will sustain superatmoshperic pressures. A collector element having a microwave transmissive pot, a metal pot engaged with the microwave transmissive pot and a perforated metal plate engaged with the metal pot can be combined with the heat generating element as a food heating combination, e.g., a steak cooker. A flared sleeve can be added to provide a popcorn baker assembly. New and improved methods are disclosed for baking two-crust pies; baking pizza pies; frying foods such as eggs; baking cakes; steaming food; and other food heating, cooking, roasting, baking, frying, steaming applications.
