LongDescription#@#NA#@@#Cleaning Instructions#@#Unplug and cool the charbroiler. Remove grates, radiants, splash guards, and grease drawer. Scrape debris, then wash grates and radiants with warm water and mild detergent; rinse and dry. Wipe stainless steel surfaces with non-abrasive cleaner and soft cloth. Clean grease drawer and vent paths; inspect seals and burners for buildup. Reassemble dry components and reconnect gas. Regular cleaning prevents contamination, fire risk, higher utility use, and equipment failure.#@@#Additional Info#@#Southbend’s HDC-18-316L-LP outdoor charbroiler delivers 40,000 BTU with 18" cooking width, 316L stainless steel, radiants, rod grates, 4" splash guards, grease drawer, manual controls, CSA and NSF certification, and weighs 240 pounds.#@@#General Info#@#Description #@#
This liquid propane countertop charbroiler is designed for high-volume service, delivering consistent searing and continuous output across busy shifts. Constructed from stainless steel, it provides 40,000 BTU of controlled heat while ensuring corrosion resistance for extended outdoor use. Operators will appreciate the compact design that maintains throughput without taking up floor space.
The stainless steel components concentrate heat evenly across the grilling surface, producing uniform sear marks and reducing cold spots. Chefs can achieve repeatable cooking results while extending the life of the grates through even thermal distribution.
Stainless steel grates resist warping and effectively transfer direct heat for efficient caramelization of proteins. Kitchen staff can maintain grill temperatures during peak service, minimizing product loss from uneven cooking.
A total of 40,000 BTU ensures rapid temperature recovery and sustained surface intensity for continuous production. Culinary teams can run multiple cooking cycles per hour without long cooldown times, preserving the flow of operations.
Constructed from 316L stainless steel, this unit offers enhanced corrosion resistance for outdoor environments and frequent cleaning cycles, helping facility managers reduce replacement frequency and lower long-term maintenance costs.
With an 18" width and countertop configuration, this unit fits on prep islands or outdoor service counters while freeing floor space. Operators gain immediate access to the grilling area and maintain an ergonomic workflow in constrained kitchens.
This unit meets NSFCertified and CSA certification standards and operates on liquid propane with manual controls for simple operation. Supervisors can have confidence in compliance, and staff can perform routine operations without complex training.
