Blue Seal Cobra CB9 900mm Gas Barbecue

The Blue Seal Cobra CB9 is a 900mm wide freestanding gas barbecue built for commercial use. It runs on three aluminised steel burners, each with its own pilot, flame failure device and piezo ignition. The reversible cast iron top grates sit in an inclined position, which reduces flare-ups and channels grease away effectively. A stainless steel grease tray collects run-off, keeping the cooking area manageable during service.

In a busy kitchen environment, the CB9 performs consistently across high-volume grilling sessions. The cast iron radiants distribute heat evenly across the grate surface, and each burner operates independently with dual high-to-low control, so operators can manage different zones during service rather than running the whole unit at full output when it isn't needed. The open cabinet base provides useful storage for utensils or spare consumables close to hand.

From an operational standpoint, the design makes day-to-day use straightforward:

• Independent burner controls allow zone cooking and reduce gas consumption during quieter periods
• Inclined reversible grates reduce flare and channel grease consistently for cleaner cooking
• Lift-out grates, radiants and baffles simplify end-of-service cleaning considerably
• Adjustable front feet and rear rollers allow the unit to be moved without lifting for thorough cleaning beneath
• Front-access engineering means routine servicing doesn't require dismantling the surrounding setup

The CB9 is a natural gas or LPG barbecue requiring a dedicated gas supply with appropriate flexible hose and isolation valve. It should be positioned with adequate clearance from combustible surfaces and under or adjacent to suitable extraction. The open base design means it is best installed on a level, non-combustible floor surface. At 900mm wide, it fits neatly into a standard cooking suite line-up or can operate as a standalone unit.

This barbecue is well suited to restaurants, hotel kitchens, pub kitchens and contract catering operations where grilled dishes feature regularly on the menu. It handles consistent throughput reliably without being oversized for the task. For very high-volume sites where grilling forms a large proportion of the menu, a wider or higher-output model may be worth considering.
