Electric Griddles

Electric griddles are built for busy kitchens that need speed, repeatability, and a clean cooking workflow. With a solid hotplate and reliable electric heating, you can sear, toast, brown, and finish dishes with minimal fuss—ideal for breakfast services, burger stations, sandwich bars, and made-to-order counters. If you are equipping a new pass or upgrading a prep line, our selection includes compact countertop models through to heavy-duty units designed for continuous service.

Across the range you will find practical sizes and power ratings to match your output. Smaller plates around 350 x 380 mm deliver quick heat-up in tight spaces, while larger formats (such as 400 x 730 mm or 730 x 400 mm) give you the room to cook multiple portions at once. For high-throughput venues, double griddles with two heating zones provide extra capacity and better control, helping you keep different foods moving without compromising timing or texture.

Wherever your kitchen sits on the scale—from mobile catering to restaurant production—electric griddles offer a dependable route to even heat and a professional finish.

Electric griddle plates: smooth, ribbed, or mixed surfaces

The cooking surface is the heart of any electric griddle, and choosing the right finish makes a noticeable difference in both presentation and workflow. Smooth plates are a favourite for eggs, pancakes, fried bread, vegetables, and delicate items that benefit from full contact and uniform browning. They are also excellent for sauces and small components cooked in a controlled area, especially when you want easy scraping and fast wipe-down between batches.

Ribbed plates add the visual appeal of grill marks and help lift food slightly from rendered fat. They suit items like sausages, steaks, and chicken portions where you want a charred look and a little separation from grease. For maximum flexibility, combination griddles with ribbed and flat zones let you run breakfast staples on one side and proteins on the other, keeping output high while preserving each item’s ideal surface contact.

Many models include smart, service-friendly details that make a difference during peak hours: raised splash guards to keep spills contained, robust metal construction for stability, and grease management features that channel run-off away from the cooking area. Some sets also include a grill brush, letting you maintain the plate quickly and safely during service so the surface stays clean, responsive, and ready for the next ticket.

For kitchens planning a broader cooking line-up, you may also want to pair your griddle station with specialist radiant options such as infrared grills for fast finishing and intense top heat. Keeping each appliance focused on what it does best is an easy way to improve consistency and reduce bottlenecks on the pass.

Double electric griddles and heavy-duty electric griddles with cabinets

When volume is non-negotiable, double electric griddles deliver the extra space and control that busy venues rely on. Two independent heating zones make it easier to run different temperatures side by side—useful when one side is dedicated to high-heat searing and the other to gentler cooking or holding. This split approach can help protect margins by reducing waste and avoiding overcooking during rush periods.

For a more integrated setup, electric grill plates with a base cabinet combine a large cooking surface with practical undercounter storage. This format supports a tidy workflow by keeping tools, trays, and cleaning essentials close at hand, while the griddle remains stable and ergonomic for long services. With powerful options (including heavy-duty configurations up to 10.8 kW), these units are suited to continuous cooking where recovery time and thermal stability matter.

Alongside classic heated plates, induction griddle-style units offer fast response and efficient heat delivery, making them a strong choice when you need rapid adjustments and a consistently even surface across a wide plate. Whether you choose a smooth induction surface for clean release or a traditional hotplate for familiar handling, the key advantage is control—helping you hit the right colour, crust, and doneness with less guesswork.

To complete an outdoor-facing menu or a seasonal service, consider coordinating your griddle station with complementary bbq equipment for prep, holding, and service support. With the right electric griddle configuration—single, double, cabinet-mounted, smooth, ribbed, or combination—you can build a cooking line that stays responsive under pressure and keeps every plate looking consistent from the first order to the last.
