Groen BPM-15EA 15 Gallon Tilt Skillet - Manual Tilt, Stainless Clad Pan, Open Leg Base

Groen builds the BPM-15EA as a 15-gallon tilting skillet standing on an open leg tubular frame. Heating is by electric elements, which keeps the utility list short and the recovery quick. It takes the pots off the range and the sheet pans out of the oven at the same time.

Under the food sits 5/8 in of stainless clad plate, heavy enough to even out the hot spots before they reach a roux. Tilting is by hand crank through a worm-and-gear mechanism, and the body comes fully vertical in 24 turns. At 8 Inch of pan depth there is room for stock over the top of a full load.

Construction is heavy-duty type 304 stainless, welded into one piece rather than assembled, which is what makes cleaning a wash-down. Inside, the liner is type 304 stainless over the clad plate. Groen offers Classic, Advanced and Cook2Temp control packages, which is a decision about how much of the cook is left to the operator. At sign-off it answers to UL, cUL and NSF.

The unit stands on an open leg tubular frame with height-adjustable bullet feet, so it levels on a floor that is not. It is offered for 208 V or 240 V, three phase service; choose the electrical option above. Room in front matters more than room behind, since that is where the contents go.
