Product Description
The Roller Grill PSF 400G is a gas-fired flat griddle built around a cast iron cooking plate. Cast iron is a well-established material choice for griddles precisely because it retains and distributes heat evenly across the surface, reducing the hot and cold spots that cause inconsistent cooking results during a busy service. It suits operators working through a steady throughput of breakfast items, burgers, sausages, and similar fare where a stable plate temperature matters from the first cover to the last.
The six-point star burner arrangement is designed to support even heat distribution across the plate, which is particularly valuable with cast iron — the material performs best when it can hold a consistent temperature under repeated loading. When the plate is heavily loaded during a peak period, cast iron's thermal mass helps maintain cooking times rather than allowing the surface to drop sharply and recover slowly. This is a practical unit for light to moderate volume kitchens rather than a high-output griddle built for the fastest-paced operations.
Features that support day-to-day service include:
- Integral raised walls to sides and rear, keeping food contained on the cooking surface
- Front drainage tray to collect fat and cooking juices, simplifying end-of-service cleaning
- Piezo ignition for straightforward lighting without a separate igniter
- Supplied configured for LPG, with natural gas conversion jets included as standard
The unit arrives ready for LPG use. If your kitchen runs on natural gas, the conversion jets are included, but the changeover should be carried out by a Gas Safe registered engineer. Position the griddle with appropriate clearance from combustible surfaces in line with current regulations, and ensure your extraction provision is adequate for an open-flame appliance of this type.
The PSF 400G is well suited to cafés handling breakfast covers, pub kitchens running lunchtime grills, and catering operations that need a reliable griddle without committing to a larger footprint. For sites with higher service volumes or a need for a wider cooking surface, a heavier-duty model in a larger format is worth considering.
If you are unsure whether this griddle matches your service style and kitchen setup, the team is happy to talk it through before you order.

Frequently Asked Questions
- The PSF 400G handles light to moderate service volumes well — it is a practical choice for cafés and pub kitchens cooking a steady flow of breakfast items, burgers, and sausages. Cast iron's thermal mass helps it maintain plate temperature under repeated loading, but it is not designed for the highest-volume, fastest-paced operations where a larger, higher-output griddle would be more appropriate.
- The unit connects to a gas supply and must be installed with appropriate clearance from combustible surfaces in line with current Gas Safe and ventilation regulations. It arrives configured for LPG; if you need to convert it to natural gas, the jets are included but the work must be carried out by a Gas Safe registered engineer. Your extraction provision should be adequate for an open-flame griddle of this type.
- Cast iron retains heat more effectively than thinner steel plates, which helps maintain consistent cooking temperatures when the surface is heavily loaded. The trade-off is that cast iron takes longer to reach operating temperature at the start of service and requires a degree of ongoing seasoning to maintain the plate in good condition. For operators cooking a steady volume of grilled or breakfast items, the even heat and retention properties generally make it a practical and durable choice.
