Countertop Gas Potato Pancake Griddle","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Comstock-Castle EG48-PPG is a 48 inch wide countertop gas potato pancake griddle with a manual control and a 24 inch cook depth, built in Quincy, Illinois for delis, diners and specialty breakfast operations that fry large batches of latkes, hash browns and pancakes. It runs 4 burners for 100,000 BTU total and ships configured for natural gas or propane, whichever you specify.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe extra depth is the point. A standard 20 inch plate holds one row of large pancakes; the 24 inch surface on this unit gives you room for a second row or for pushing finished product back to hold while the next batch fries up front.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003e1\/2 Inch Polished Steel Plate, 24 Inch Deep\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe plate is 1\/2 inch highly polished steel. Thinner than a standard griddle plate, it heats faster and recovers quickly after a batch of cold shredded potato hits it, which is what you want for high-volume frying rather than searing. A 2.5 inch stainless steel splash guard runs on all four sides as standard, with taller sides available, so oil spatter stays on the griddle instead of the wall behind it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eManual Brass Gas Valves With Standing Pilots\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eBrass gas valves with automatic standing pilots give you a manual knob per burner and nothing else to maintain. The regulator is factory set for the gas you order, 4 inch WC natural gas or 10 inch WC propane, on a 3\/4 inch NPT manifold. If you would rather set a temperature and leave it, the thermostatic version of this griddle adjusts from 150 to 450 degrees F and holds within plus or minus 20 degrees.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWelded Stainless Steel Frame With 4 Inch Bull Nose\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eConstruction is corrosion resistant stainless steel on a welded frame with insulated side panels, a stainless front control panel and a 4 inch wide bull nose landing across the front that protects the knobs and gives you a place to set a spatula. Clearance to non-combustible surfaces is zero at the sides and rear; to combustible surfaces it is 6 inches on the sides and 6 inches at the rear.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Comstock-Castle","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51275942986013,"sku":"EG48-PPG","price":3784.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0699\/4716\/2909\/files\/55854_EG48-PPG_dbef6aa7-24e9-4794-83fe-36cd3e32e66e.webp?v=1779650841","url":"https:\/\/thechefstore.com\/products\/comstock-castle-eg48-ppg-48-in-countertop-gas-potato-pancake-griddle","provider":"TheChefStore.Com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
