Abstract
A reusable transport and containment system for a pan or dish having a peripheral flange. The system includes a manually graspable collar that acts as support around the perimeter of the pan and a lid that sealingly engages the collar. The coupled lid and collar insulate the pan's contents while shielding the food handler's hands from the pan and its contents.
