The 700 Series 32-inch (81.28 cm) griddle is designed to be the heart of any high-end outdoor kitchen. Designed for those who value culinary performance without compromising aesthetics or durability, this griddle represents a perfect balance of thermal engineering, superior materials and user-centric functionality. Made from materials designed to stand the test of time and outdoor conditions, this model allows you to make complex preparations, maintain complete thermal control and enjoy cooking as an experience, not just a process.

🧱 Premium Stainless Steel Construction

Every inch of this built-in griddle reflects a non-negotiable commitment to quality. Its entire structure is constructed from 304 stainless steel, a material that not only offers exceptional resistance to corrosion but also withstands sudden changes in temperature and the natural wear and tear of intensive outdoor use. This steel alloy is widely used in professional environments for its ability to maintain structural integrity under constant thermal stress.

The cooking surface, meanwhile, is made from 5mm thick 430 stainless steel, a density that provides uniform heat retention, minimises temperature fluctuations and improves cooking efficiency. This combination of materials not only ensures longevity but also provides a clean, modern aesthetic that blends seamlessly with luxury kitchen environments or well-designed outdoor spaces.

🔥 Thermal versatility for multiple recipes and simultaneous cooking.

At the heart of this griddle are two powerful U-shaped burners, designed to provide even heat distribution across the entire cooking surface. With a total power of 7.03 kW, these burners are capable of reaching high temperatures in a very short time, which means less preheating time and more control over the exact cooking point.

This configuration allows heat not only to be concentrated directly on the food, but also to be efficiently distributed throughout the griddle thanks to its integrated heat deflector, which separates the heat into two separate zones.

This feature is essential for those looking to cook ingredients that require different temperature levels simultaneously: meats on one side at high heat and delicate vegetables on the other side at medium heat. Thermal duality adds a professional dimension that few griddles on the market can offer, ideal for preparing varied menus without the need to change equipment or take breaks.

📏 74.93 x 45.72 cm Cooking Area

One of the most notable strengths of this built-in griddle is its large cooking surface, which reaches 3,226 cm² (equivalent to 500 square inches). This space is not just a figure: it represents the real ability to cook for large groups without sacrificing pace, comfort or cooking quality. The dimensions of 74.93 cm wide by 45.72 cm deep make it possible to handle multiple preparations at the same time, from meat and fish to vegetables, omelettes or even caramelised fruit.

In practical terms, this means that up to 28 standard-sized burgers can be grilled simultaneously, transforming the logistics of a family event, an outdoor dinner or even a professional catering service. This surface has also been designed to maintain a constant temperature from edge to edge, reducing the risk of cold spots or overheating that can ruin a delicate preparation.

🛡️ SafetyGlow PLUS controls

The addition of the SafetyGlow PLUS system takes user safety to the next level. This system integrates backlit controls that illuminate red when the gas is in operation, allowing visual confirmation that the burners are active, even under low visibility conditions, such as night dinners or cloudy days.

But what is innovative is its automatic flame-out detection capability: if, for any reason, the fire is accidentally extinguished, the controls start flashing, immediately alerting the user to a possible leak or irregular situation. This functionality adds an extra layer of protection against unburnt gas risks and, at the same time, enhances the intuitive user experience, as the user can check the status of the griddle at a glance. A technical detail that makes the difference between a good iron and a truly professional iron.

⚡ Operational convenience at the touch of a button

The electronic ignition system of this iron has been designed to eliminate any unnecessary complexity in starting the appliance. At the touch of a button, the burners are activated quickly, safely and efficiently. This instant one-touch ignition eliminates the need for matches, lighters, or external ignitors and ensures that the gas flow is only activated when the electrical arc required for ignition is detected, reducing the risk of unwanted leakage.

In addition to convenience, this system also improves ignition safety and reliability, ensuring a stable flame from the first attempt. This type of solution, common in professional kitchens, becomes a great advantage for any user who values both efficiency and operational peace of mind.

🧼 Quick maintenance for hassle-free, frequent use

One of the main concerns of griddle users is cleaning after use. This model addresses that problem with an advanced cleaning system that includes an easily removable front grease tray designed to collect cooking residues and fats effortlessly. The front position facilitates access, avoiding awkward manoeuvres or the risk of spillage during removal.

In addition, it incorporates an integrated residue scraper, a tool designed to keep the surface free of debris without scratching or damaging it. This set of solutions makes the cleaning process a quick and easy task, allowing more frequent use of the equipment without the fear of tedious maintenance. A clean kitchen is not only more hygienic, but also extends the life of the components and improves the thermal performance of the surface.

🧩 Seamless integration in 81.28 cm outdoor kitchens

The plank has been specifically designed to fit standard 32-inch (81.28 cm) format countertops and structures, making it extremely easy to install in both prefabricated outdoor kitchens and custom-built projects. This modular format allows architects, designers and users to integrate the appliance into cooking islands, gourmet bars or outdoor cooking spaces without the need for complex adaptations. The compact yet functional design makes the plancha a natural fit in compositions where spatial efficiency is key, without sacrificing the performance of a full cooking station. This makes it an excellent choice for both renovations and new builds, maximising flexibility and reducing installation costs.

💡 Versatility of Use Beyond the BBQ

Although conceived as a built-in griddle for residential outdoor kitchens, this model also proves its usefulness in a variety of unconventional contexts. Thanks to its robustness, ease of cleaning and energy efficiency, it is ideal for food trucks, where space is limited but production must be streamlined.

It is also an outstanding choice for hotels with kitchen terraces, mobile catering services or even semi-industrial environments where a reliable, compact and easy-to-install appliance is required. Its enclosed design and temperature control allow efficient cooking in environments where traditional grills are impractical. This griddle doesn’t just cook: it raises the standard wherever it is used.

🧰 Comprehensive and Safe Maintenance of the Valve and Burners

Regular maintenance of your built-in griddle is essential to ensure optimum performance, prevent gas-related incidents, and extend the equipment’s service life. One of the most critical areas is the valve and burner system, as its correct operation is directly linked to the appliance’s safety and efficiency.

Carrying out this procedure annually, or whenever ignition failures, leaks, or irregularities in the flame are detected, is highly advisable. Moreover, in humid environments or where there is exposure to grease and food residues, it may be necessary to perform it more frequently.

🛠️ Preparation for Maintenance

Before you begin any maintenance task on a gas griddle, it is vital to take precautions to avoid burns, leaks, or accidental ignition. Safety must be your top priority.

Steps:

  • Make sure the griddle is completely cool.

  • Close the main gas supply valve.

  • Disconnect the appliance if it is powered by electricity.

  • Wear protective gloves and safety goggles.

  • Work in a well-ventilated area, away from flammable materials.

🔩 Removing the Plate and Accessing the Burners

To inspect and clean the burner ports and verify the correct connection of the valve, you need to carefully remove the griddle’s top plate.

Steps:

  • Lift the griddle plate vertically, preferably with someone’s help, as it can be heavy.

  • Place it on a secure, non-flammable surface.

  • Access the burners by removing any cover or guard preventing direct visibility.

🫧 Inspecting and Cleaning Burner Ports

With use, burner ports can become clogged with food debris, grease, or combustion residues, affecting flame quality. Proper cleaning is essential.

Steps:

  • Examine each burner port for dirt or blockages.

  • Use an unfolded metal paper clip or the special tool provided to remove debris.

  • If there are tougher obstructions, use a drill bit provided with a small cordless drill, taking care not to bend it or enlarge the holes.

  • Ensure that only the burner ports are cleaned with the drill bit, not the brass orifices that regulate the gas.

🕵️‍♀️ Checking the Insect Screen and Air Deflector

The accumulation of cobwebs or insect nests in the venturi tubes can restrict gas flow and cause dangerous flame flashbacks.

Steps:

  • Ensure the insect screens are properly fitted and free of fluff and debris.

  • If necessary, remove them for a thorough cleaning and refit them correctly.

🏗️ Reinstalling the Burner and Checking the Valve Alignment

A common mistake is poor burner reinstallation, leaving the valve misaligned, which can cause serious leaks.

Steps:

  • Carefully align the valve opening with the burner tube.

  • Make sure it is firmly inserted before proceeding.

  • Tighten any screws or fastenings according to the manufacturer’s specifications.

  • Ensure the air deflector is correctly in place and the locking screw is secured if it has been adjusted.

👁️ Leak Test After Maintenance

Before using the griddle again, it is crucial to perform a leak test to confirm that the gas system’s seal has not been compromised.

Steps:

  • Set all controls to the ‘off’ position.

  • Slowly open the gas valve.

  • Apply a mixture of water and soap to all joints and connections.

  • If bubbles form, there is a leak that must be fixed before using the griddle.

🥞 Sweet Pancakes Filled with Nutella or Cream

These filled pancakes offer a burst of flavour in every bite. Cooked directly on the stainless steel surface of your griddle, they achieve a perfectly golden exterior and a soft, creamy centre – ideal for brunch, special breakfasts, or as an impromptu outdoor dessert.

🧾 Ingredients (for 6 medium pancakes)

  • 200 g wheat flour

  • 1 egg

  • 250 ml whole milk

  • 2 tablespoons of sugar

  • 1 teaspoon of baking powder (e.g. Royal)

  • 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract

  • 1 pinch of salt

  • Butter (to grease the griddle)

  • Nutella, pastry cream, or hazelnut spread for the filling

  • Icing sugar (optional, for dusting)

🔧 Required Utensils

  • Mixing bowl and hand whisk

  • Ladle or large spoon

  • Wide spatula

  • Baking parchment (optional)

  • Kitchen tongs

  • Oil spray or butter

🔥 Step-by-Step Preparation on the Griddle

1. Prepare the filling in individual portions

Using a spoon, form small dollops of Nutella or pastry cream (about a heaped teaspoon each) on baking parchment and freeze them for 20–30 minutes. This ensures the filling will not melt too quickly during cooking.

2. Mix the pancake batter

In a large bowl, whisk the egg with the sugar, milk, vanilla, and pinch of salt. Add the sifted flour and baking powder, and mix until you have a smooth, lump-free batter. Let it rest for 10 minutes.

3. Preheat your barbecue griddle

Set the griddle to medium heat and allow it to reach a steady temperature. Lightly grease the surface with butter or oil, ensuring the area where you will cook is well covered.

4. Assemble the pancakes directly on the griddle

Using a ladle, pour a small amount of batter onto the griddle. Immediately place a frozen portion of filling in the centre, then cover it with another small amount of batter. Do not press down; allow the batter to naturally cover the filling.

5. Cook over medium heat until golden

Cook for 2–3 minutes on each side, or until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look dry. Flip with a spatula and cook on the other side until completely done and golden.

6. Serve hot with a final touch

Remove from the griddle and let them rest for 1 minute. Dust with icing sugar, and serve with fresh fruit, a drizzle of syrup, or even a scoop of ice cream if using them as a dessert.

💡 Chef’s Tips to Enhance the Recipe

  • You can prepare various fillings: dulce de leche, jam, white chocolate hazelnut spread, or even a touch of sweet cream cheese.

  • If making these for an event or service, keep them warm in a container covered with baking paper or foil.

  • Have a metal lid or dome on your griddle? Use it to cover the pancakes and create a mini oven effect for an even softer, more uniform finish.
