Built for high-volume production, this countertop griddle-cheesemelter combines a flat top with a pull-out broiler to speed up cooking while maintaining control. Operators achieve consistent searing and melting across a 48" griddle plate, with two gas circuits ensuring responsive heat distribution for mixed loads. Stainless steel construction and NSF certification support sanitation and daily use in restaurants, hospitals, universities, and large-scale foodservice.
#@@# Full-Width Plate#@#
A 48" by 21" surface with a 3/4" thick plate provides thermal mass for stable temperatures under heavy loads. Thick steel reduces hot spots and ensures consistent searing across pans and direct-contact items.
#@@# Dual Gas Circuits#@#
Two gas hook-ups and manual controls divide the 90,000 BTU capacity into zones. Zone control allows simultaneous temperature bands, cutting cook times and waste during shifts.
#@@# Pull-Out Cheesemelter#@#
The 42" by 18" pull-out rack uses a stainless steel mesh radiant for top heat, ideal for melting, browning, and finishing. The slide design enables quick access while maintaining radiant intensity for consistent results.
#@@# Stainless Exterior#@#
Stainless steel resists corrosion and simplifies cleaning in busy kitchens. Smooth surfaces and accessible panels support routine sanitation and institutional cleaning schedules.
#@@# Countertop Configuration#@#
Countertop installation eliminates leg-mounted footprints, fitting compact kitchens. Low-profile height improves sight lines and ergonomics at grill and assembly stations without reducing capacity.
#@@# Manual Controls#@#
Three manual knobs allow direct heat adjustment for immediate operator feedback. Simple controls reduce training time and ensure predictable response during peak service.
Specifications include 48" width, 28" depth, 15" height, 290-pound weight, natural gas power, and NSF certification.
