When the griddle is where most of your menu happens, width matters. The Toastmaster TMGT48 gives you four feet of thermostatically controlled flat top, enough to run a full breakfast board or a wall of smash burgers at once. It is a strong fit for diners, high-volume breakfast spots, cafeterias and burger joints that want serious capacity on a countertop footprint.
Four 20,000 BTU aluminized steel "U" shaped burners, one every 12 inches, deliver a total of 80,000 BTU/hr to a 3/4" thick polished steel plate. Four throttling thermostats, each adjustable from 150°F – 450°F, let you set every section to its own job.
What you will notice in day-to-day use
- Four zones, one surface. Run a hot sear zone for proteins, a medium zone for hash browns, a gentler zone for eggs and a holding zone, all on the same plate.
- Consistent results through the rush. Throttling thermostats hold each section at its set point, so color and doneness stay consistent from the first ticket to the last.
- Quick recovery. The 3/4" thick polished steel plate keeps a big reserve of heat and bounces back fast after you load it edge to edge.
- Grease under control. A spatula-wide 3-1/4" front trough and chute feed a 4-1/2 qt. stainless steel grease drawer, and the 4-3/8" tapered splash guard wraps around three sides.
- Made for daily abuse. Stainless steel front panel and bull nose shield the knobs, and a standing pilot keeps the griddle ready to fire.
Choosing your setup
Gas type: the griddle ships for natural gas with a universal convertible pressure regulator, and the orifices for LP conversion are included. Choose natural gas or liquid propane above. Prefer a smaller footprint or simpler controls? The same griddle comes in 24" (TMGT24) and 36" (TMGT36) widths, plus manual-control versions (TMGM series).

- Ventilation: install under a commercial hood following your local code.
- Counter or stand: use a sturdy non-combustible counter with the 4" legs, or a stand at least 27" tall over a combustible floor, and keep 6" from combustible surfaces at the back and sides.
- Delivery: it ships at about 315 lb, so plan for a liftgate or dock and a couple of extra hands.
