Abstract
Embodiments of a paper towel holder, system and method thereof are provided. The paper towel holder includes a bracket, a sleeve, a pin and an arm. The bracket is sized and configured to be coupled to a main body of a cooking system. The sleeve defines a hollow portion to receive the pin with an axis extending axially through the sleeve, the sleeve being coupled to the bracket. The arm includes at least one opening so as to be rotatably coupled to the pin. The at least one opening in the arm extends to define a keyed shape that corresponds with a square shaped outer periphery of the sleeve such that the arm is rotatable about the pin and can be moved to different orientations about the pin.
