MagiKitch'n APM-SMB-648 48" Low Profile Countertop Ceramic Coal Charbroiler, 10 Burners, 150,000 BTU
When the grill station has to feed a full dining room, the MagiKitch'n APM-SMB-648 gives you four feet of ceramic coal broiling in a low profile package. Steak and seafood houses, sports bars and busy family restaurants use this size to run several proteins at once while keeping the unit low enough to sit on a refrigerated base or work table.
Ten stainless steel burners produce 150,000 BTU/hr in total. The cooking surface is split into two 22-3/8" x 24-3/4" floating steel grids for 1,107 square inches of grilling area, with an individual front control for every burner.
What you will notice in day-to-day use
- Smoky, coal-style flavor. A ceramic coal screen sits over the burners, catching drippings and sending up the flare and smoke that give grilled food its look and taste.
- Two grids, two stations. Split grids make it easy to dedicate one side to beef and the other to chicken or fish, and to lift out one section for cleaning while the other keeps cooking.
- Precise burner control. Every stainless steel burner has its own front control, so you can build hot and moderate zones across the grill.
- Grids that stay true. The free floating 1/2" steel rod top grid handles constant heating and cooling without warping, and E-Z Tilt drains grease into the front trough.
- Cleanup made simpler. Two crumb trays, a top grid scraper and a 6" stainless service shelf with towel bar are standard.
Choosing your setup
Gas type: this charbroiler is offered for natural gas or liquid propane (LP); choose the gas your kitchen uses above. The 150,000 BTU/hr rating is the total input. A 3/4" gas regulator ships unattached and must be installed on the supply before the gas line is connected. Supply and burner pressures are below.
| Gas | Supply pressure | Burner pressure |
|---|---|---|
| Natural gas | 7–10" W.C. | 4" W.C. |
| Liquid propane | 11–13" W.C. | 10" W.C. |
The APM series also comes in 24" to 72" widths, radiant or ceramic coal, and in high-output (-H) versions.

Before it arrives
- Gas: have a qualified installer fit the supplied 3/4" regulator, then connect to the 3/4" NPT inlet. Size the supply line to hold burner pressure with every gas appliance on the line running.
- Ventilation: install under a commercial hood following local code; do not block the flue or place hood drains over it.
- Clearance: keep 6" at the sides, 8" at the rear and 4" at the floor from combustible materials (0" sides and rear to non-combustible), and allow a 30" aisle in front. Indoor use only.
- Delivery: ships crated at about 668 lb (48" x 54" x 44" H x W x L), so plan for a liftgate or dock and enough hands to set it in place.
