Buffalo Extra Wide Griddle Steel Plate 745mm

The Buffalo Extra Wide Griddle is a countertop flat plate griddle designed for commercial kitchens that need a reliable, broad cooking surface for continuous service. The 430 stainless steel plate spans a substantial cooking area, with independently controlled zones that allow different areas of the plate to run at different temperatures simultaneously. This makes it practical for kitchens handling a mixed grill menu or cooking multiple items at different stages at the same time.

In service, the griddle holds temperature consistently across the plate, which is important when throughput picks up during peak hours. The independently controlled zones mean operators are not heating the full surface when only partial capacity is needed, which helps manage energy use during quieter periods. The temperature range supports everything from gentle warming through to searing, giving the kitchen reasonable flexibility without specialist equipment.

From a practical standpoint, the design is straightforward to work with during and after service:

• Independently controlled cooking zones for flexible plate management
• Removable drip tray channels fats and residue away from the cooking surface
• Built-in side splash guards reduce mess during shallow frying
• Flat stainless steel surface cleans down quickly between services
• Robust 430 stainless steel construction handles daily commercial use

At 32.5kg, the unit is stable on a countertop but will need a solid surface rated for the load. It is a plug-in electric unit, so no gas connection or fixed installation is required, though the available power supply should be confirmed before purchase. Ventilation above the cooking position is worth considering, particularly in kitchens with limited extract capacity.

This griddle is well suited to cafés, small restaurants, burger operations, and hotel breakfast services where a wide cooking surface is needed but floor space is limited. For sites running continuous high-volume service or larger brigade kitchens, a heavier-duty model with a higher power rating may be worth considering.

If you are unsure whether this griddle matches your service volume or countertop setup, the team is happy to talk it through before you commit.
