Commercial 50cm Steel Electric Griddle Features & Performance
- Thick Solid Machined Steel Plate: Built for continuous daily cooking, the heavy-gauge solid steel plate acts as a thermal heat sink. When loaded with cold burger patties, bacon rashers, sausages, or halloumi, the plate resists temperature drop, searing food cleanly and locking in flavour without stewing meats in excess juices. Once seasoned, the smooth steel plate forms a resilient non-stick patina that stands up to heavy metal spatulas and scrapers.
- Built-In Three-Sided Splash Guard: Welded stainless steel raised side and rear splash guards enclose the cooking deck. This contains hot grease spitting and cooking oil splatter, keeping your back-wall cladding and adjacent work counters clean while maintaining kitchen hygiene standards.
- High-Performance 3kW Frying Power: The integrated 3000W heating element provides rapid initial preheating and swift recovery between tickets, ensuring consistent frying performance across the entire 500mm cooking deck.
- Accurate Thermostatic Control Dial: Dedicated commercial rotary thermostat gives line operators pinpoint control over service temperatures, allowing seamless transitions from low-temperature holding to aggressive high-heat searing while maintaining strict compliance with commercial food hygiene holding standards.
- Integrated Safety Overheat Stat: Fitted with an internal high-limit safety cut-out thermostat that automatically isolates electrical current if abnormal operating temperatures occur, safeguarding elements and internal components.
- Full-Width Slide-Out Grease Drawer: Features a front-mounted catchment trough that channels rendered cooking fats, meat juices, and loose crumbs directly into a slide-out stainless steel drawer, enabling fast mid-service clean-downs and hygienic end-of-shift maintenance.
- Durable Commercial Stainless Steel Casing: Built with a food-grade stainless steel body complete with non-slip rubber feet to ensure stable, vibration-free placement on commercial stainless prep tables and cooklines.
- Standard UK 13A Plug & Play: Drawing 3.0kW through a single pre-fitted UK standard 13A 3-pin plug, this griddle requires no complex wiring or high-amp supplies, making it exceptionally popular for catering trailers and pop-up kitchens operating on standard domestic sockets or generators.
