1. A cooking vessel for cooking foodstuff comprising: a base having an outer sidewall, a generally hollow interior and a generally open top;a lid removably mounted to the base and complementarily covering the open top of the base in a first position;a mounting support attached to the outer sidewall
1. A cooking vessel for cooking foodstuff comprising: a base having an outer sidewall, a generally hollow interior and a generally open top;a lid removably mounted to the base and complementarily covering the open top of the base in a first position;a mounting support attached to the outer sidewall of the base and including an axle extending outwardly therefrom and a movable projection being spaced-apart from the axle; anda lid holder removably and rotatably mounted to the axle of the mounting support, the axle extends through a hub of the lid holder, the lid holder being rotatable between a support position and a storage position and supporting the lid in a second position, the open top of the base at least partially exposing the hollow interior when the lid is in the second position, at least a portion of the lid holder engaging a portion of the movable projection when rotated between the support and storage positions. 2. The cooking vessel of claim 1, wherein the lid holder extends partially above the open top of the base in the support position and is entirely below the open top of the base in the storage position. 3. The cooking vessel of claim 1, wherein the lid holder must be removed from the base and remounted onto the base before rotating the lid holder between the support position and the storage position. 4. The cooking vessel of claim 1, wherein the axle includes at least one alignment tab that engages with at least one retaining flange on the hub to retain the lid holder in the support and storage positions. 5. The cooking vessel of claim 4, wherein the at least one retaining flange is discontinuous around the inner periphery of the hub and the at least one alignment tab is positioned along the axle such that lid holder is removable from the mounting support when the lid holder is rotated between the support position and the storage position. 6. The cooking vessel of claim 1, wherein the mounting support includes a first surface and a generally planar second surface spaced-apart from the first surface, at least an outer circumference of the first surface being generally flush with an exterior surface of the outer sidewall of the base, the movable projection being located on the second surface. 7. The cooking vessel of claim 6, wherein the movable projection provides increased friction between the mounting support and the lid holder when the lid holder is in the support and storage positions. 8. A cooking vessel for cooking foodstuff comprising: a base having an outer sidewall, a generally hollow interior and a generally open top;a lid removably mounted to the base and complementarily covering the open top of the base in a first position; anda lid holder mounted to the base and supporting the lid in a second position, the open top of the base at least partially exposing the hollow interior when the lid is in the second position, the lid holder including a mounting support fixedly attached to the outer sidewall of the base and at least partially enclosing a wire frame support which is movable between a support position in which the support extends partially above the open top of the base and a storage position in which the support is entirely below the open top of the base. 9. The cooking vessel of claim 8, further comprising a gap located in a portion of the wire frame. 10. The cooking vessel of claim 8, wherein the lid holder further includes a hub, the mounting support enclosing at least a portion of the wire frame and the hub. 11. The cooking vessel of claim 10, wherein the lid holder further includes: a sliding lock for engaging and gripping the wire frame;a spring biasing the sliding lock into engagement with the wire frame; anda push button for engaging the sliding lock,wherein depression of the push button disengages the sliding lock from the wire frame to allow the wire frame to move from the support position to the storage position. 12. The cooking vessel of claim 11, wherein the push button is partially enclosed by the mounting support and partially extends beyond an opening in said mounting support. 13. The cooking vessel of claim 8, wherein the lid includes a handle and the lid holder includes an indent in a support end, the handle of the lid resting within the indent in the second position. 14. A lid holder for a cooking vessel comprising: a hub;a wire frame positioned within a portion of the hub, the wire frame being movable with respect to the hub in a first direction;a push button movably attached to the hub;a mounting support at least partially enclosing the hub, the wire frame and the push button; anda sliding lock including an opening extending therethrough, the opening being sized and shaped to receive at least a portion of the wire frame therethrough, the sliding lock being movable with respect to the wire frame in a second direction generally perpendicular to the first direction,wherein the wire frame is movable with respect to the mounting support and the hub between a support position and a storage position. 15. The lid holder of claim 14, further comprising: at least two spaced-apart sliding locks for engaging and gripping the wire frame; andat least two spaced-apart coil springs movably positioned within a portion of the hub, each coil spring biasing one of the sliding locks into engagement with the wire frame. 16. The lid holder of claim 15, wherein the push button engages the sliding locks and is movably between a first position in which the wire frame is capable of being freely moved and a second position in which the wire frame is generally locked in place.
