This offer ends in:
The EG818B electric griddle provides a 550 × 400 mm smooth steel cooking surface for simultaneous preparation of burgers, eggs, bacon, pancakes, and vegetables. The 3 kW heating element delivers consistent heat distribution across the plate. Operators in burger restaurants, breakfast cafés, and hotel kitchens use this unit for high-volume service.
Commercial Application
The griddle sits on a prep counter or standalone equipment stand. Cooks load multiple menu items onto the surface and manage different products across temperature zones. The smooth plate allows spatula movement and rapid product transfer during breakfast and lunch rushes.
During service, operators flip burgers, cook eggs, and sear vegetables without switching equipment. The 550 mm width accommodates 8–10 burger patties or 12 eggs at once. Turnover speed determines hourly output, with the plate recovering temperature between batches.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Is the cooking surface chrome-plated or plain steel?
A: The EG818B uses polished steel plate without chrome coating. Steel allows direct metal spatula contact and high-temperature searing. The surface requires light oil seasoning before first use and after deep cleaning.
Q: Does this griddle run on electricity only?
A: Yes. The EG818B operates on 230V single-phase electric power only. It does not have any alternative power connection. Standard commercial kitchen wiring supplies the 3 kW load.
Q: How does the grease channel work and how is it cleaned?
A: A welded channel runs along the front edge of the cooking plate. Grease flows into the channel and drains into a removable stainless steel drip tray. The tray slides out for emptying and washes in a sink or dishwasher.
Q: Can this unit be installed in a food truck or mobile catering van?
A: Yes. The 15 kg weight and compact 550 mm width suit mobile installations. The griddle bolts to a countertop or equipment cart. Electrical supply must provide stable 230V single-phase power from generator or shore connection.
Q: Does the griddle have separate temperature zones?
A: The EG818B has a single thermostat controlling the entire 3 kW heating element. Operators create temperature gradients by adjusting product placement and using the plate's natural heat distribution. The front edge typically runs slightly cooler than the rear.
