Available Options
This 50 cm gas griddle delivers 4 kW output across a flat steel cooking surface for continuous high-volume preparation. Operators use it to cook burgers, eggs, bacon, pancakes and smash patties simultaneously. Common in burger restaurants, breakfast cafés, hotel kitchens and catering vans.
Commercial Application
The flat-top surface handles multiple menu items at once without flavour transfer. Operators position proteins on hotter zones and hold cooked items on cooler edges. Gas burners beneath the plate maintain recovery speed during consecutive batch cooking.
During breakfast service, one operator manages eggs, bacon, hash browns and sausages on separate zones. In burger operations, the surface sears multiple patties while toasting buns on adjacent space. The 4 kW output sustains temperature under continuous load.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Does this griddle use a chrome or steel cooking surface?
A: The cooking surface is cast steel, not chrome-plated. Cast steel distributes heat evenly and tolerates metal spatulas during scraping. Chrome plating is not used in commercial flat-top griddles due to wear under continuous metal utensil contact.
Q: Can I convert this unit from LPG to natural gas?
A: Yes, the burner accepts both LPG and natural gas with jet conversion. LPG operates at 30 mbar; natural gas at 20 mbar. Conversion requires replacement jets and pressure adjustment, supplied with technical documentation.
Q: How is grease managed during cooking?
A: The griddle plate slopes toward the front edge where grease runs into a collection tray. Operators scrape fat and debris forward during service. The tray removes for emptying and cleaning between shifts.
Q: Can this griddle fit in a food truck installation?
A: The unit measures 40 cm deep and requires ventilation clearance above the cooking surface. Food truck installations need overhead extraction and adequate gas supply line sizing. Contact TurcoBazaar for mobile kitchen installation specifications and gas line requirements.
Q: How do I control temperature across different cooking zones?
A: This single-burner model heats the entire plate uniformly. Temperature zones form naturally with hotter areas over the burner and cooler edges. Operators adjust the gas valve to set base temperature and use spatial positioning for zone cooking.
