Lincat GS3/C Electric Chrome Plated Griddle | Commercial Griddle

The Lincat GS3/C is an electric griddle fitted with a chrome-plated cooking surface. Chrome plate is a popular choice in commercial kitchens where a smooth, non-reactive surface is a priority — it is commonly used for cooking eggs, fish, delicate proteins, and anything where colour transfer or sticking would be a concern. The plate is machined to a consistent thickness to support even heat distribution across the cooking surface, and the fully welded construction removes the crevices and joints that can trap grease and food debris over time.

In a working kitchen, the thermostatically controlled rotary dial allows operators to set and hold a consistent plate temperature through a service period. This matters both for cooking quality and for energy use — the plate does not need to run at full output continuously, and temperature can be dialled back during quieter periods or between services. The chrome surface reaches working temperature efficiently and holds it steadily once up to heat, making it reliable through a busy lunch or dinner service.

From an operational standpoint, the key practical advantages of this unit are:

• Chrome plate resists staining and is well suited to delicate or high-turnover menu items
• Fully welded plate edges reduce cleaning time and bacterial harborage points
• Thermostat control supports consistent results and avoids unnecessary energy consumption
• Electric operation means no gas supply or gas safety requirements at the point of installation

As an electric unit, installation requires an appropriate power supply to be in place — it is worth confirming your electrical capacity before ordering. The griddle does not require a gas connection, which simplifies placement in kitchens where gas runs are limited or where positioning flexibility is needed. Like all griddles in regular commercial use, it will benefit from correct positioning under extraction to manage heat and steam output during service.

This unit is a practical choice for cafés, small restaurants, hotels, and contract catering operations cooking moderate volumes. The chrome plate specification makes it particularly well suited to operations where surface cleanliness and gentle cooking characteristics are a priority over the searing performance of a plain steel plate. For higher-volume operations or sites running continuous service across multiple cooking zones, a heavier-duty or wider model from the Lincat range may be worth considering.

If you are unsure whether the chrome plate suits your menu, or whether this capacity fits your service volumes, the team is happy to talk it through with you before you commit.
