Why this griddle earns its place
The Blue Seal Evolution Cooktop 4 Open/1 Griddle is built for kitchens that need serious cooking power. With four open burners flanking a full-width griddle plate, it's the equipment choice for restaurants, pubs, and catering operations where volume and pace are the reality. The 40kW input reflects the thermal demand — no compromises, no throttling back. You have heat on demand, and gas's instant responsiveness means you're never waiting for recovery or managing lag.
The four open burners give you flexibility in pan cooking — boil stocks, reduce sauces, fry proteins, keep accompaniments warm — all happening simultaneously at different temperatures. The griddle plate runs down the centre as a continuous cooking surface: steaks, burgers, vegetables, whole fish, anything that benefits from flat, even heat beneath it. At 1200mm wide with 812mm depth, the working area is substantial. You're not crammed against the back of the unit or fighting for space mid-service; there's room to work, room to slide items back and forth, room to manage the pace.
Standing 1085mm high on a freestanding stand, it's positioned at comfortable working height. The Evolution Series build is robust and designed for the realities of consistent, professional cooking. At 134kg, it's a solid, stable platform that won't shift under pressure. The stainless steel finish doesn't stain from salt, acid, or repeated exposure to high heat.
