The Star Star-Max® 5124CF is a 24-inch countertop electric charbroiler rated at 6,600 watts. 4 incoloy sheath elements heat the heavy cast iron grates by direct radiation and by conduction through the grates, with an infinite control for every 12 inches of cooking surface. It is hard-wired and available for 208V or 240V service; select the voltage above.
Two-Way Heat Transfer
The elements sit just below the grates, so product is cooked both by radiant heat straight from the elements and by heat conducted through the cast iron grates. Combining the two gives even heat across the grid, strong char marks and fast recovery between loads.
An electric charbroiler produces grill marks and char flavor without a gas line, which makes it a practical choice where gas is not available. The swing-up element assembly locks vertically for safe, easy cleaning, and the removable water pan helps prevent flare-ups.
Why Operators Choose It
- Precise heat: Infinite control every 12 inches of cooking surface.
- Even cooking: 4 high-performance incoloy sheath elements and radiant-plus-conduction heat transfer.
- Easy cleaning: Removable heavy-duty cast iron grates and a swing-up element assembly that locks upright.
- Safer operation: Removable stainless steel water pan (6 qt) to limit flare-ups; cool-to-the-touch stainless bull nose front.
