A grilling arrangement comprises a compartment including two tungsten-halogen lamps mounted adjacent the top of the compartment behind a screen of infra-red-transmissive material. The lamps are emissive of infra-red radiation, which grills food supported on a shelf in the compartment. Each lamp has a reflector, which is preferably parabolic in cross-section, to reflect infra-red radiation from the lamps onto the grilling surface. A control arrangement is also provided to impart oscillatory movement to the reflectors and lamps, so that infra-red radiation from the lamps is swept across the grilling surface, thereby achieving a substantially uniform distribution of intensity of infra-red radiation over the surface over a given length of time.
