Electric chicken grill Elangrill 48P-ELBA electric

A vertical electric chicken grill cooks poultry evenly by rotating spits over radiant heat. The spits turn continuously, exposing every part of the bird to the same heat source so the skin crisps while the meat stays juicy. Independent control of each spit lets the operator cook different cuts or quantities at once without mixing flavours or adjusting the entire grill. The vertical orientation saves floor space and directs fat away from the heat, reducing flare-ups and smoke in the kitchen.

The operator loads each spit with prepared chickens, securing them with the prongs. The Low-E tempered glass door is closed to retain heat and allow clear viewing of the cooking process. Each spit is switched on individually; the 230 V motor turns the spit quietly while the heating elements maintain the set temperature. Interior lighting improves visibility, making it easy to check browning and doneness. Fat drips into a removable bucket beneath the grill, which is emptied and cleaned between services to keep the work area hygienic.

The grill is built from ribbed and reinforced stainless steel, chosen for its resistance to corrosion and ease of cleaning. The door is Low-E tempered glass, which reflects heat back into the cooking chamber while remaining cool to the touch. Eight tubular stainless steel spits, each 12 mm square and 960 mm long, are mounted vertically and driven by separate motors. A removable fat collection bucket sits below the spits to catch drippings.

The controls consist of individual switches for each spit, allowing the operator to start or stop any spit independently. The 20.5 kW power rating requires a 400 V three-phase electrical supply, which is standard in professional kitchens for high-demand appliances. The footprint of 1121 by 391 mm fits into a compact space on the worktop or floor, while the 1556 mm height allows the operator to load and unload spits without stooping. Wheels are not included, so the unit is positioned permanently or moved with a trolley.

Stainless steel surfaces are wiped down after each service to remove grease and food residue. The Low-E glass door is cleaned with a non-abrasive cloth to avoid scratching the coating. The removable fat collection bucket is emptied and washed daily to prevent odours and bacteria. The spits are removed and cleaned separately to ensure no food particles remain.

The Elangrill 48P-ELBA is part of the Elba series, designed for small and medium-scale production with a focus on functionality and durability. It is listed under professional catering equipment in the vertical grill category.
