Product Description
The Buffalo Outdoor Gas Griddle is a flat-plate gas plancha designed specifically for outdoor commercial use. Running on gas and built from steel, it provides a large, even cooking surface well suited to burgers, vegetables, fish, and similar high-throughput fare commonly served at catering events, market stalls, food festivals, and outdoor hospitality settings.
In a busy outdoor service environment, a flat griddle plate offers consistent, direct contact heat across the cooking surface, which supports steady output when volume picks up during peak service periods. The steel plate retains heat reasonably well, allowing operators to work across the surface without frequent cold spots slowing throughput. At 15kg it is manageable enough to transport and position without heavy lifting equipment, which suits operators who are regularly setting up and breaking down at different locations.
Practical operational advantages include:
- Large cooking area suited to simultaneous multi-item service
- Flat plate construction simplifies cleaning between covers
- Gas operation removes dependency on mains electricity at site
- Compact footprint relative to cooking surface area
- Straightforward set-up with no complex installation requirements
As this unit is designed for outdoor use, it should not be operated in enclosed or insufficiently ventilated spaces. Operators will need a compatible gas supply and appropriate regulator for their cylinder type — this is worth confirming before the first event. The unit is not intended for permanent indoor installation. For very high-volume outdoor catering where output demands are more sustained, a heavier-duty double-burner or larger surface model may be worth considering.
This griddle is a practical choice for mobile caterers, event operators, and outdoor hospitality venues that need reliable gas cooking without fixed infrastructure. It is equally well suited to smaller catering businesses looking for an affordable entry point into outdoor flat-plate cooking.
If you are unsure whether this model suits your service volume or have questions about gas compatibility for your setup, the team is happy to talk it through with you before you order.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Yes, it is designed with outdoor commercial use in mind, making it a practical choice for food festivals, market stalls, pop-up operations, and outdoor hospitality venues. It should not be used in enclosed or inadequately ventilated spaces.
- The unit runs on gas but operators will need to ensure they have a compatible regulator and cylinder for their specific gas type — LPG is the most common arrangement for portable outdoor catering. We recommend confirming your gas supply compatibility before first use, particularly if you are working across multiple sites.
- For smaller to mid-volume outdoor operations — such as a single-operator burger or street food stall — the cooking surface is well suited to the task. If you are running sustained high-volume service with multiple operators or very rapid turnaround requirements, a larger or double-burner unit would likely serve you better.
