Sometimes the best griddle is the simplest one. The Toastmaster TMGM24 is a 24-inch countertop griddle with straightforward quarter-turn manual valves: turn the knob up for more heat, down for less. It is an easy fit for food trucks, concession stands, small cafés and any kitchen that needs a dependable flat top in a tight spot without paying for thermostats.
Two 20,000 BTU aluminized steel "U" shaped burners, one every 12 inches, deliver a total of 40,000 BTU/hr into an ultra smooth 3/4" thick polished steel plate with a 21-1/2" deep cooking surface. Each burner has its own 1/4-turn manual control valve, and a standing pilot keeps it ready to light.
What you will notice in day-to-day use
- Hands-on control. Quarter-turn manual valves respond immediately, which experienced griddle cooks often prefer for adjusting heat on the fly.
- Heat zones you can set. With a burner every 12", the 24" plate can run a hotter side and a cooler side for proteins, eggs and holding.
- A thick plate that recovers. The 3/4" polished steel plate stores plenty of heat, so it bounces back after you load cold product.
- Cleanup that keeps pace. A spatula-wide 3-1/4" front grease trough and chute drain into a 4-1/2 qt. stainless steel grease drawer, and a 4-3/8" tapered splash guard wraps around three sides.
- Protected controls. A stainless steel front panel and bull nose shield the valve knobs from bumps and spills.
Choosing your setup
Gas type: the griddle ships set up for natural gas with a universal convertible pressure regulator, and orifices for LP are included. Choose natural gas or liquid propane above to match your kitchen. Prefer a griddle that holds a set temperature? The thermostatic TMGT24 shares this body, and the TMGM series also comes in 36" and 48" widths.
