Parry PGG7 Gas Griddle | Flat Steel Plate

The Parry PGG7 is a gas-fired commercial griddle with a polished steel cooking plate, designed for everyday use in professional kitchen environments. It operates on either natural gas or LPG, making it a practical choice for kitchens where mains gas supply varies or where the unit needs to be used in a location without a fixed natural gas connection.

The steel plate offers a reliable, even cooking surface that holds temperature well during continuous service. Thermostatic control allows the operator to set and maintain a consistent plate temperature, which is important when cooking a range of items — from bacon and eggs at breakfast through to burgers, halloumi and flat breads across a lunch or dinner service. The thermostat helps reduce the risk of burning during quieter periods and supports a more consistent output when orders come in quickly.

From an operational standpoint, the PGG7 offers several practical advantages in a working kitchen:

• Thermostatic temperature control for consistent, repeatable results
• Polished steel plate supports good heat distribution across the cooking surface
• Removable fat drainage drawer simplifies cleaning at the end of service
• Available in natural gas and LPG configurations to suit different supply setups
• Compact footprint suitable for line cooking or standalone countertop use

The PGG7 is a countertop unit and will need to be positioned on a suitable, stable surface rated to carry its weight. Like all gas cooking equipment, it requires connection by a Gas Safe registered engineer and adequate ventilation above the cooking line — typically a suitable extraction canopy. The LPG variant requires appropriate cylinder storage and regulator setup in line with current gas safety regulations. Operators should confirm with their installer that the gas supply pressure is appropriate for the intended configuration.

This griddle is well suited to small to medium catering operations — cafés, pub kitchens, hotel breakfast services, and similar environments where a dependable flat-plate griddle is needed without excessive footprint. It is a sensible starting point for sites that do not require the output capacity of a larger, heavier-duty unit. For higher-volume operations or sites running continuous service across multiple sittings, a larger or double-plate model may be worth considering.
