The Comstock-Castle FHP30-1.5RB Gas Charbroiler
The Comstock-Castle FHP30-1.5RB is a 30-inch heavy-duty countertop griddle/charbroiler combo, built for full-service restaurants, casual diners, and prep stations that need a griddle/charbroiler combo plus a 18-inch radiant charbroiler working steady through service without dropping plate temperature.
In a real kitchen, the 25,000 BTU output is split across manual control zones every 12 inches, so a line cook can run one section hot for searing while holding finished product at a lower flame on the next, no waiting for a thermostat to cycle. The 18-inch radiant charbroiler section runs alongside the griddle for grilled proteins on the same chassis, which means a 30-inch footprint covers both flat-top and char menus without a second unit.
This is the right call for full-service restaurants, casual diners, and prep stations where the 30-inch footprint matches the bench space you have. If you need full-line capacity, the 42-inch or wider siblings carry more concurrent product. If you only need a single-station unit for a breakfast counter, a 12 or 18-inch sibling fits a tighter footprint.
30-Inch Polished Steel Plate at 3/4-Inch Thickness
The cooking surface is 30 inches wide by 21 inches deep, with a 3/4-inch-thick polished steel plate that holds heat through wave after wave of cold product without cratering the surface temperature.
2 Manual Heat Zones with Cast Iron Burners at 20,000 BTU Each
The griddle is divided into 2 independent manual zones, each rated at 20,000 BTU and controlled by a separate brass valve with a standing pilot. A line cook can run one section hot for searing while holding finished product at a lower flame on the next, with no waiting for a thermostat to cycle and no electrical hookup required.
Full-Width Front Grease Trough with Removable Catch Drawer
A full-width front grease trough drains into a large-capacity catch drawer that pulls out for fast cleanout at the end of service. Stainless steel splash guards taper to 4 inches at the back of the plate, protecting back-of-house wall surfaces from spatter and keeping the unit sanitation-compliant under daily wash-down.
Welded Stainless Steel Body on Stainless Steel Adjustable Legs
The FHP30-1.5RB body is welded stainless steel with an angle iron and aluminized steel inner frame, set on stainless steel adjustable feet so you can level it on an uneven kitchen counter or stand. Welded construction holds up against the hot-cold cycling and pan abuse a countertop griddle takes every day; bolted construction works loose after a season of service and shows up as a wobble in the legs or a misaligned grease drawer.
18-Inch Radiant Charbroiler Alongside the Griddle
A 18-inch radiant charbroiler runs alongside the griddle section on the same chassis. The charbroiler fires cast iron burners through 10-gauge stainless radiants up to flare-reducing cast iron top grates, so a single FHP30-1.5RB handles both flat-top product (pancakes, eggs, hash browns) and char-grilled product (burgers, chicken, chops) without a second piece of equipment on the counter.
About Comstock-Castle
Founded in 1838 in Quincy, Illinois, Comstock-Castle is America's oldest stove manufacturer still in operation. The company grew from a frontier hardware shop into a grey-iron foundry that helped make Quincy the nation's stove-production hub by the early 1900s. Seven generations later, Comstock-Castle still designs and union-builds commercial cooking equipment in the same Quincy facility, with ranges, griddles, charbroilers, fryers, and modular cook lines configurable from 24 to 72 inches to match your menu. Built to outlast the kitchens that put them on the line.
