Perfect for busy operations that are tight on space, this Avantco Chef Series 60" countertop gas griddle with thermostatic controls adds easy compact convenience to your kitchen! The unit is space efficient, designed specifically for your kitchen countertop and allows you to maximize every inch of work space. With (5) 35,000 BTU burners, it is ideal for cooking burgers, pancakes, or vegetable skewers, as each burner can be set to a different temperature. For quality performance, the griddle surface is 3/4" thick, ensuring quick recovery and convenient heat retention, saving you money and keeping your kitchen cool.
With a countertop design, the unit is space efficient, leaving room in your kitchen for additional equipment, supplies, or work surface area. It also allows placement on top of existing work tables and chef bases, ensuring that your space is maximized to its full potential. For quick and easy cleaning, this unit features a waste tray to collect food particles. Simply remove the tray, empty or rinse it, and return it back to its original spot.
Operation is simple and intuitive, thanks to the 5 large control knobs located on the front of the unit. These controls operate the burners independently, so you can set each burner on the griddle to a different temperature and cook different items at the same time. This griddle features thermostatic controls which your cooks are sure to appreciate in a busy kitchen. Instead of constantly monitoring the temperature, like with manual controls, simply set the griddle to your desired temperature and it will maintain that temperature within a few degrees! Unlike other gas griddles that require liquid propane or natural gas, this unit ships ready for a natural gas connection, but can be converted to accept liquid propane. The unit uses a total 175,000 BTU for operation.

It is quite heavy and comes in a crate when shipped so be prepared with a crowbar to free the grill. Assembly was simply just needed the man power to hold the grill while attaching legs. We have ours on top of a lowboy freezer and it fits well. Note it does damage the surface of what you put it on so something to place it under would be great to prevent that.
I have been using this griddle 5 days a week for about 5 hours a day with no issues at all. For about a month now. It was easy to field convert it to lp gas . Keep in mind when looking at the dimensions when they measure from front to back of the unit they don’t include the 2 inch gas pipe sticking out the back. You’ll also add the regulator which is another inch so if your limited in space like I was you have have to buy some iron pipe elbows to divert the gas. I’m in a food trailer so my griddle table barley fit the unit . After all is said and done I love it,
Just received this product about a week ago. It arrived packed in a cardboard box inside a crate on a pallet. They grates became dislodged in transit, but were not damaged. The charbroiler came with attachable legs and a regulator. Appears to be good quality and can’t wait to get it installed and grill some chicken and veggies on it!
Avantco Chef Series CAG-36-MG 36" Countertop Gas Griddle with Manual Controls - 90,000 BTU - This is ideal griddle and well fit in my small kitchen.
Spend the money and get one with thermostatic controls, this gets the job done but you better have a way to read the surface temp so you can get it dialed in to your desired cooking temperature. Even once you do get it dialed in though it seems it will wander +/- 10 to 50 degrees. Otherwise great value for price.
We purchased this grill a few months ago! It heats well and cooks our items consistently, but it’s very very hard to clean the grill surface. We’ve tried multiple grill cleaning items but to no avail.
Really easy to clean and maintain
excellent product
Works great! So much better than a conventional outside grill!! The price wasn’t bad either
Really good did what it needed to do.
Nice griddle works well for our Food truck.
This is an excellent product. You can use it with propane or natural gas
I have had this flat grill for about 2 years now and it has worked perfectly. Not a leak or anything wrong with it. Got it installed in my food truck and gets right to work with all the burners getting the griddle hot in about 10 mins or less.
3 Years later still running strong with no issues. Would by again if needed.
Delivery was fast and set up was easy. Great value product. Iron grates are wearing faster than I'd like, but the price was right.
Super good quality
Love the amount of cooking surface. We are able to cook an entire breakfast for all of our hunters at our lodge at the same time. Very versatile as well. It serves most of our cooking needs
Works great ,it’s heavy duty.Just wish there was a way to clean underneath the trays, but I’ve had mine for three years uses it every day Monday through Friday all day it works good.
