Crown Verity PGRID48 1200mm Heavy Duty Removable Griddle for MCB48

The Crown Verity PGRID48 is a full-width griddle plate designed specifically for the MCB48 barbecue unit. It slides directly into the cooking position in place of the standard grill grates, converting the MCB48 into a flat-top cooking surface without any tools or permanent modification. It is a dedicated accessory, not a universal fit, so it is worth confirming you have the MCB48 before ordering.

The plate is constructed from thick rolled steel, which gives it the mass to hold temperature consistently across the full surface when food is loaded. In a busy outdoor service environment — events catering, festival operations, large hospitality functions — this matters. A thinner plate would shed heat quickly under volume; the PGRID48 maintains cooking temperature through continuous service in a way that keeps throughput steady rather than forcing the operator to work in smaller batches.

Practical features that make a difference in service include:

• Slide-on fitment allowing quick conversion between griddle and open grill cooking
• Thick rolled steel construction for consistent heat retention under load
• Removable grease tray for faster cleaning between service periods
• Integrated splashguard to reduce mess and protect the operator
• Designed exclusively for the MCB48, ensuring a secure, stable fit

As a removable accessory, it gives operators the flexibility to switch between grill and griddle cooking depending on the menu — a useful characteristic when outdoor event menus vary from one day to the next. Cleaning is straightforward given the removable grease management, which matters when turnaround between services is tight.

If you are unsure whether the PGRID48 suits your current MCB48 setup, or want to talk through outdoor cooking accessories more broadly, the team is glad to help you work through it.
