Zusammenfassung:A single-use tray is useable to impart aromatic material to food upon the application of heat. The tray assembly is pre-filled with aromatic material, such as wood chips, spices, herbs, or natural or artificial flavorings. The tray assembly includes a first tray with a base and a second tray non-removably secured to the first tray over the base and over the volume of aromatic material. The second tray has a cooking surface defining an aperture arrangement to permit the flow of gases from the aromatic material through the cooking surface upon application of heat. A packaged food product includes the tray assembly with prepackaged food and an outer protective covering or wrapper. Some arrangements include a lid that defines a chamber for enhancing flavor. Methods of making a tray, packaging food, and using are provided.
