MagiKitch'n MKG-36-ST 36" Countertop Griddle, 1" Thick Polished Plate, Solid State Thermostats, 90,000 BTU
For kitchens where consistency is everything, from a high-volume brunch service to a chain with tight cooking specs, the MagiKitch'n MKG-36-ST is the top of the MKG line. It combines a 1-inch thick polished steel plate with solid state thermostats that hold a wide temperature range and respond quickly to changing loads.
Six stainless steel venturi burners put a total of 90,000 BTU/hr under the 36-inch plate, and three solid state thermostats (one per 12-inch zone) cover 150°F to 550°F. That low end is useful for holding and gentle egg work, while the high end handles a hard sear. The cooking area is 35-3/4" wide by 24" deep.
What you will notice in day-to-day use
- The widest temperature range in the series. From 150°F to 550°F, one griddle can hold, toast, fry eggs and sear burgers at the same time.
- Fast, accurate response. Probes embedded in the plate tell the solid state controls exactly what the cooking surface is doing, for tighter holding and quicker recovery.
- Push the power, not the pilot. Matchless ignition lights the pilots automatically, and recessed pilot-ready lights, power switches and a heat-on light keep the front clean and easy to read.
- Heavy plate, heavy duty. A 1" thick polished steel plate and double-walled stainless sides stand up to all-day production.
- Cleanup that does not drag on. Spatula-wide 3-1/2" front trough, welded chute and a 3.75 gallon grease box, plus no exposed fasteners and a removable cabinet back.

Before it arrives
- Gas: 3/4" gas connection; a qualified installer should size the supply line to hold burner pressure with every appliance on full.
- Power: the matchless ignition and thermostats need a 115V supply; draw is only 0.66 A.
- Ventilation: install under a commercial hood following local code, and do not block the flue or place hood drains over it.
- Clearance: keep 6" at the rear and 2" at the sides from combustible surfaces (0" sides next to non-combustible). If you mount it on a stand with casters, use a flexible gas hose with a restraint.
- Delivery: ships crated at about 520 lb (52" x 45" x 42"); stands ship separately.
