Lincat GS6/TR Electric Half Ribbed Steel Plate Griddle

The Lincat GS6/TR is a countertop electric griddle with a machined steel cooking plate divided into two distinct zones — one flat, one ribbed. The split-surface layout means operators can cook different items simultaneously on a single unit, which is a practical advantage in kitchens where the menu calls for both flat-cooked results and char-marked finishes within the same service period.

The machined steel plate is substantial enough to hold heat during busy periods and recovers reasonably well when cold product is loaded. Each half has its own independent thermostat, so the flat and ribbed zones can be set to different temperatures and controlled separately. This allows menu flexibility during a full service, and means the less-used side can be run down or switched off during quieter periods to reduce energy consumption. The fully welded plate construction eliminates joins and crevices where grease and debris would otherwise accumulate, making end-of-service cleaning noticeably more straightforward.

• Independent thermostat controls for each cooking zone
• Ribbed surface produces char marks without a separate chargrill
• Fully welded plate removes debris traps, aiding daily cleaning
• Countertop format fits well on a cooking line or pass position
• Dual-zone operation supports energy management during variable demand

As an electric unit, it will require a correctly rated supply for your site — confirm available capacity before ordering. Adequate overhead extraction at the cooking position is also necessary and should be factored into placement decisions. Allow sufficient clearance around and beneath the unit for routine cleaning access.

This griddle is well suited to small to medium-volume operations — cafés, pubs, bistros, and hotel kitchen lines — where the menu benefits from both cooking surfaces but space or budget does not justify two separate units. For kitchens running continuous high-volume grill service or heavy breakfast trade, a larger or heavier-duty model may be worth considering to meet throughput demands comfortably.
