Genesis Series Gas Range, 12 High-Efficiency Non-Clog Burners, 2 Standard Ovens, Standing Pilot","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Venancio G722ST-72B is a 72 inch wide Genesis Series gas range that puts twelve high-efficiency two-piece cast iron burners over two 26 1\/2 inch wide standard ovens. It is built for a high-volume line, a banquet kitchen, or a commissary where the range top does the heavy lifting and the ovens roast, braise, and hold underneath. Each burner is rated 22,000 BTU on natural gas or propane, and Venancio states it matches the cooking time of a conventional 32,000 to 33,000 BTU burner, so twelve pans at full flame through a Saturday service draw far less gas than a conventional twelve-burner top. Both ovens run on snap action thermostats from 175 °F to 550 °F and hold an 18 x 26 inch sheet pan on three racks each. The standard ovens have no fan, so if you need the faster, more even browning of forced air for sheet pan baking, the convection version of this range is the better fit. It needs no electrical connection at all. It installs on a 3\/4 inch NPT rear gas connection and ships with a single shelf flue riser, an installation kit with pressure regulating valve, and a propane conversion kit.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eTwelve High-Efficiency Cast Iron Burners at 22,000 BTU\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe burner is the reason this line exists. Venancio's patented two-piece cast iron burner is rated 22,000 BTU per hour on either natural gas or propane, and Venancio rates it to cook in the same time as a 32,000 to 33,000 BTU burner. Unlike a one-piece drilled burner that pours excess gas into the flame and lets it roll up the side of the pot, the high-efficiency head puts the heat under the pan, which is where the fuel savings come from. The burner is also non-clog and self-cleaning, so a boilover or a spilled sauce does not block the ports and leave a lopsided flame for the rest of the shift. Each of the twelve burners has its own standing pilot and an independent manual valve, so a line cook can hold a stock at a bare simmer on one grate while the burner next to it runs wide open under a saute pan. The full top draws 264,000 BTU on natural gas or propane. Heavy-duty 12 x 12 inch cast iron grates lift off for cleaning, a removable crumb drawer sits under the burners, and the welded and sealed stainless steel crumb tray underneath has no seams to trap grease. A front-mounted manual shutoff cuts gas to the entire range without reaching behind it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eTwo Standard Ovens with Snap Action Thermostats\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eEach oven cavity is 26 1\/2 inches wide, 26 1\/2 inches deep, and 14 inches high, which is Venancio's standard bakery depth, so a full 18 x 26 inch sheet pan slides in lengthwise without turning it. A snap action thermostat runs from 175 °F to 550 °F with a 100 percent safety shutoff, and the oven base lights by piezo spark ignition rather than a match. Three heavy-duty 3\/8 inch diameter wire racks sit in five positions in each oven, so you can run a hotel pan of braised short rib low in one cavity while the other holds plates at a low setting. Both ovens are rated 30,000 BTU on propane or 35,000 BTU on natural gas, for a combined oven input of 66,000 BTU propane or 70,000 BTU natural gas. The cavity is all stainless steel rather than enamel, so it takes a scraper and a degreaser without chipping, and the fully welded seamless stainless door is spring-assisted and counterweight balanced so it stays where you leave it instead of dropping on a hot pan.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003e14 Gauge Fully Welded Interlocking Frame\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eA 72 inch range gets pushed, leveled, and leaned on for years, and a bolted frame works loose under that. The Genesis frame is 14 gauge steel, fully welded and interlocked, so the top stays flat and the oven doors stay square as the floor settles. The front and sides are stainless steel, the knobs are chrome-plated aluminum that stay cooler in the hand than plastic next to an open flame, and the 6 inch chrome-plated steel legs adjust to level the cooktop. A stainless steel flex gas tube runs throughout the unit, and a 7 inch stainless steel plate rail across the front gives cooks a place to stage plates or rest a spoon. Venancio builds the range 100 percent from raw materials rather than assembling bought-in sections, which is why the welds and the panels match from one end to the other.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eStainless Steel Single Shelf Flue Riser\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe standard single shelf flue riser brings the total height to 60 inches and carries a stainless shelf above the burners for plates, sauce pans, or a hotel pan of finished product. The riser directs oven exhaust up and away from the cook. Two other risers are offered at order time: a stubback riser for installations under a low hood or a wall-mounted shelf, which brings the height to 40 inches, and a dual shelves riser that adds a second shelf and brings the height to 72 inches. Swivel casters with front locking brakes, a modular pan rail for 1\/6 pans, a cutting board, an additional oven rack, and a 4 foot quick disconnect hose with install kit are also available.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eGas Connection and Ordering\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe range connects at the rear through a 3\/4 inch NPT fitting with a pressure regulator for either natural gas at 4 inch W.C. manifold pressure or propane at 10 inch W.C. Total range top input is 264,000 BTU on either gas, plus 70,000 BTU on natural gas or 66,000 BTU on propane for the two ovens. The gas line feeding it must be 3\/4 inch or larger, and a flexible connector must have a 3\/4 inch inside diameter or larger. There is no electrical connection on this model, since the standard ovens have no fan and the pilots are standing. Specify natural gas or propane when ordering, and check altitude specifications for installations above 2,000 feet.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Venancio","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67690898030877,"sku":"G722ST-72B","price":8292.72,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0699\/4716\/2909\/files\/88843_Venancio_G722ST-72B.png?v=1791370858","url":"https:\/\/thechefstore.com\/products\/venancio-g722st-72b-72-in-genesis-series-gas-range-12-high-efficiency-non-clog-burners-2-standard-ovens-standing-pilot","provider":"TheChefStore.Com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
