Toastmaster TMLC36 36" Countertop Lava Rock Charbroiler, Cast Iron Grates, 90,000 BTU
The Toastmaster TMLC36 is the mid-size lava rock charbroiler for kitchens where the grill is a real station, not an afterthought. At 36 inches wide it has room for a steady flow of burgers, steaks, chicken breasts and skewers, making it a good match for pubs, steakhouses, family restaurants and catering kitchens.
Three individually controlled burners, one every 12 inches, supply 30,000 BTU/hr each for a total of 90,000 BTU/hr. Lava rock under the grates turns drippings into flavorful smoke, and the 20" deep cast iron grates give you plenty of room to work.
What you will notice in day-to-day use
- Three heat zones. A separate control for each 12" section lets you sear, cook through and hold at the same time.
- Smoky flavor customers notice. Lava rock catches drippings and sends that classic charbroiled taste back into the food.
- Reversible, adjustable grates. Cast iron grates have a thin side for searing and a thick side for delicate items, and each one sets flat or slanted.
- Grease kept in check. The large-capacity, full-width stainless steel water pan catches grease and makes end-of-day cleanup faster.
- Built for a busy line. A stainless steel front, top and bull nose protect the knobs and stand up to daily use, with a standing pilot always ready.
Choosing your setup
Gas type: the charbroiler ships for natural gas with a convertible regulator and an LP conversion kit, so choose natural gas or liquid propane above. The lava rock model also comes in 24" (TMLC24) and 48" (TMLC48) widths, and there is a radiant version (TMRC series) if you prefer stainless radiants to rock.

Before it arrives
- Gas: 3/4" NPT connection; have a qualified installer connect it and convert it to LP with the included kit if needed.
- Ventilation: a charbroiler produces smoke and grease vapor, so install it under a commercial hood following your local code.
- Counter or stand: use a non-combustible counter with the 4" legs, or a stand at least 27" tall over a combustible floor. Keep at least 3" from combustible surfaces at the back and sides.
- Delivery: it ships at about 230 lb, so plan for a liftgate or dock and a couple of helpers.
