I use mine to store the lids to my pots and pans. How about you?
What is the drawer underneath your oven and how do you use it?

I keep all my matches in that drawer
It's a little known sequel to Nightmare On Elm Street in which Freddie Kruger teaches housewives exactly what things in the kitchen do.Wait, isn’t that the title of a Wes Craven movie?
Those cats were like the lady in the commercial outside the store saying 'Open! Open! Open!'We found a dead mouse under that drawer once when we pulled it out to clean - he was a crispy critter (that would explain why the cats used to crouch there and stare at that drawer for some time).
Here he is, telling his buddy about his adventure:We have a Jenn-Air so our drawer isn't a drawer. It houses the grease trap and the exhaust assembly. There is a hole in the back where the exhaust hose goes, which is much the same as a dryer hose (only greasy). We do store broiler pans and baking sheets on the right side.
But, once, it held something more... One late fall day a few years ago, a young possum figured out how to crawl up inside. It managed to disconnect the hose and there it was in the compartment. I heard it making noise, knocking around the pans down there so I opened it -- it opens with a hinged bottom -- and there he is, hissing at me. I called the hubby and we spent 20 minutes getting it into a pet carrier. He took it out to the river and let it go. The hose was reattached more firmly.
What the heck? Hasn't anyone used their broiler function on their stove?Cooks the food,usually steaks,chops,burgers,etc,quicker..at least that is what my stove does,look at the main control on your oven,does it have a broil feature?If so,turn it on,wait a minute,then look and see if that drawer is heating up..maybe some ovens have the broiler at the top of the oven,but doubt it,just try to broil a steak it is good!
