SOLVED: This apparently is a baking dish. Thrift store find for my wife. But why is there a hole in the side? What is it? (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

Oh, and it's LARGE. That's my range it's sitting on, and it covers about 2/3 of it.

That is a Crock Grill with the burner and grill missing. I had one back in the early 2000s. The hole is for where the burner plugs into the power supply/thermostat thing. Was actually a great cooking implement, and you should try to find the rest of the parts.

Edit : heres a link to an eBay listing of the model I had.
