  • Check grill height clearance for thicker cuts and bone-in meats.

Power Source and Usage

  • LPG models provide flexibility for mobile catering or remote locations.
  • Calculate BTU requirements based on menu items and service intensity.

How Commercial Chargrills Work

Commercial chargrills operate on a beautifully simple principle—intense heat rising from below cooks food placed on open grates. Most professional models use powerful gas burners that heat lava rocks, ceramic briquettes or radiants beneath the cooking grates. These elements retain and radiate intense heat (up to 400°C) while creating that distinctive smoky flavour when food juices drip down and vaporise. The robust cast iron cooking grates transfer heat directly to your food, creating those coveted sear marks. Many models feature individually controlled cooking zones and adjustable grate heights—giving chefs precise control over cooking temperatures for different items simultaneously. It's flame cooking at its professional best!

Safety Guidelines

  • Check Flames Ensure proper blue flame pattern—yellow flames indicate adjustment needed.
  • Secure Connections Inspect gas lines and connections regularly for leaks.
  • Avoid Flare-ups Keep grates clean and don't overload with fatty items.
  • Use Long Tools Always use proper length tongs and spatulas to prevent burns.
  • Proper Shutdown Turn off gas supply completely after each service.
  • Ensure Ventilation Always operate under proper extraction systems.

Top Tips for Using Commercial Chargrills

For optimal results, preheat your chargrill for at least 10-15 minutes before service begins—this ensures proper temperature and prevents food sticking. Clean the grates daily with a wire brush while still warm, and empty grease trays regularly to prevent flare-ups. Rotate foods 90 degrees halfway through cooking for professional crosshatch grill marks. Consider using designated grill zones: higher heat for searing and marking, lower heat for finishing thicker items to achieve perfect doneness without charring.

Benefits of Using Commercial Chargrills

  • Enhanced Flavour Profile Creates distinctive smoky taste that other cooking methods can't match.
  • Menu Prestige Adds perceived value to dishes—customers willingly pay more.
  • Operational Efficiency Cooks multiple items simultaneously with minimal supervision.
