Gas griddle CASTA LQ/FTG4BBRC

The CASTA Gas Ribbed Griddle LQ/FTG4BBRC is a professional-grade ribbed griddle designed for gas grill tops.

This griddle operates by direct heat transfer from gas burners beneath a thick cooking plate. The ribbed surface allows for searing food, creating characteristic grill marks while cooking. Heat is contained and directed by the plate, with a thermostat allowing for precise temperature management during cooking operations.

To use the griddle, the operator would first ignite the gas supply and adjust the controls to the desired temperature. Food is then placed directly onto the hot ribbed surface. The integrated rear smoke extraction chimney helps to vent cooking fumes. As food cooks, fats and juices are channelled towards a built-in collection system, featuring a front drainage channel, a drain opening, and a removable grease drawer for easy cleaning.

The construction of this appliance is entirely from AISI 304 stainless steel, finished with a Scotch Brite effect. The cooking plate itself is made of bright, hard chrome with a 15 mm thickness. Stainless steel side splash guards are fitted to prevent grease from splashing onto adjacent work surfaces. Heat-resistant handles and control knobs are provided for safe operation.

Temperature control is managed by a thermostat switch, enabling adjustments to the working temperature within a range of 100 °C to 240 °C. A manually reset safety thermostat is also incorporated into the appliance for added protection.

The dimensions of the griddle are 800 mm in length, 900 mm in width, and 275 mm in height. These measurements define the footprint of the unit on a worktop or stand.

Cleaning involves emptying the removable grease drawer and wiping down the stainless steel surfaces and the chrome cooking plate, following the guidance provided by the fat collection system's design.

This model is specifically designed for use as a gas grill top.
