This split-surface configuration allows operators to cook different items simultaneously without cross-contamination of cooking styles, making it a practical choice for kitchens that need to produce both seared and marked items during the same service.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe 12mm machined steel plate is thick enough to retain heat effectively during busy service periods, recovering temperature quickly after cold food is loaded. The dual-zone thermostat control means each half of the plate can be run at a different temperature, which helps reduce energy consumption when one side is not in use and gives cooks more precise control during variable-demand periods. Fully welded plate construction removes hidden joins and crevices that would otherwise trap grease and food debris, which makes end-of-service cleaning more straightforward.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn practical terms, this griddle suits operations where the menu calls for a mix of flat-cooked and charmarked results — burgers, chicken, fish, and vegetables across the same unit.

The countertop footprint suits most pass or cooking line positions, though access for cleaning beneath and around the unit should be considered during placement.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis griddle is well suited to small to medium-volume kitchens — cafés, pubs, bistros, and hotel operations — where the menu requires both flat and ribbed cooking surfaces but space or budget does not justify two separate units.

This configuration allows kitchens to handle two cooking styles simultaneously from a single unit: flat-plate cooking for eggs, pancakes, and delicate items alongside ribbed cooking for burgers, chicken, and anything where char marks and fat drainage matter.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn a busy service environment, the thick machined steel plate is a meaningful practical feature rather than a marketing point. Dense steel retains heat effectively when food loads hit the surface, which helps maintain consistent cooking temperatures during sustained service rather than dipping and recovering repeatedly. The dual thermostat zones mean the ribbed and smooth sections can be run at different temperatures, which is useful when the two halves are being used for different items with different heat requirements — or when one section can be turned down or off during quieter periods to reduce energy draw.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFrom a day-to-day operational standpoint, the fully welded plate construction removes the joins and seams that tend to accumulate grease and debris on lesser units. That makes end-of-service cleaning more straightforward and reduces the risk of build-up that affects both hygiene standards and cooking performance over time.

It is worth confirming the electrical supply specification with your installation team before ordering.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis griddle is well suited to cafés, pubs, hotel kitchens, and casual dining operations running a mid-volume breakfast or lunch service. For very high-throughput sites running extended service periods at full load, it is worth considering whether a larger or more heavily specified griddle would better match the demand. Equally, for smaller operations with limited counter space, a compact single-zone model may be more appropriate.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIf you are unsure whether the GS7\/R is the right match for your service volume or kitchen setup, the team at Advantage Catering Equipment is happy to talk it through with you before you commit to an order.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Lincat","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":36574095504,"sku":"GS7\/R","price":817.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1753\/9017\/products\/Lincat_GS7-R_Electric_Steel_Plate_Half_Ribbed_Griddle.jpg?v=1513771408"},{"product_id":"lincat-gs7r-steel-plate-gas-griddle-half-ribbed","title":"Lincat GS7R Gas Griddle – Half Ribbed Steel Plate","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Lincat GS7\/R is a gas-fired steel plate griddle with a split cooking surface — one half smooth, one half ribbed — giving operators two distinct cooking options from a single piece of equipment. The 12mm machined steel plate is fully welded to eliminate gaps where grease and food debris can accumulate, and the thickness of the plate plays a direct role in how evenly heat is distributed across the cooking surface.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIn a busy service environment, consistent plate temperature matters. The mass of a 12mm steel plate holds heat well under load, recovering quickly when cold product is placed down, which helps maintain cooking times during a rush rather than slowing as the service builds. The gas burner is positioned to work with the plate rather than against it, keeping the cooking zone at a stable working temperature throughout service.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eTwo independently controlled zones mean the smooth and ribbed sections can be run at different temperatures, or one side can be turned down or off entirely during quieter periods.
