MagiKitch'n MKG-36 36" Countertop Griddle, 1" Thick Polished Plate, Snap Action Thermostats, 90,000 BTU
The MagiKitch'n MKG-36 is the straightforward, heavy-built griddle for operators who want a thick plate and dependable controls without the electronics. At 36 inches wide it is the classic size for diners, breakfast and brunch spots, burger joints and cheesesteak counters that keep the flat top busy from open to close.
Six stainless steel venturi burners (15,000 BTU/hr every 6 inches) deliver a total of 90,000 BTU/hr under a 1" thick polished steel plate. Three snap action thermostats, one every 12 inches, hold the surface between 200°F and 450°F, and the cooking area is 35-3/4" wide by 24" deep.
What you will notice in day-to-day use
- Simple, proven controls. Snap action thermostats are easy for any cook to read and set, and a recessed piezo spark ignitor lights the pilot with a push of a button.
- Three zones for a mixed menu. With a thermostat every 12", you can run pancakes on one side, eggs in the middle and smash burgers on the other without compromise.
- Recovers after every load. The 1" thick plate holds plenty of heat in reserve, which keeps sear marks and color consistent through a rush.
- Grease goes where it should. A spatula-wide 3-1/2" front trough and welded chute feed a large 3.75 gallon grease box with a splash zone compartment.
- Built to wipe down fast. Extra smooth 11 ga. skirting, no exposed fasteners and an easy-to-remove cabinet back shorten closing cleanup.
