Key Considerations
-
Plate Material & Thickness: Griddles typically come in steel, chromed steel, or cast iron.
- Cast iron is durable and retains heat exceptionally well, ideal for high-volume cooking, but requires seasoning to maintain its non-stick properties.
- Stainless steel (or cold-rolled steel) is a common, economical choice that's easy to clean and resists rust, though thinner plates may not retain heat as consistently as cast iron.
- Chromed steel offers non-stick properties and is effective at transferring heat to food, while emitting less heat into the kitchen, making it easier to clean if care instructions are followed.
- Thicker plates (e.g., 8mm or 1cm) are more durable, less prone to warping, distribute heat more evenly, and recover temperature faster after adding cold food.
- Temperature Control: Precise, adjustable temperature controls (often ranging from 122°F to 572°F or 50°C to 300°C) are crucial for cooking a variety of foods properly. Models with multiple heating zones allow different foods to cook simultaneously at their optimal temperatures.
- Power and Voltage: Commercial electric griddles range in power from 1500W to over 4400W. Low-volume models typically run on 120V, while high-volume units often require a more powerful 240V or 208V connection and may not include a plug, requiring an air switch for installation.
- Ease of Cleaning & Safety: Look for user-friendly features like high splash guards to prevent grease splatter, a grease trough/chute, and a large, removable grease collection drawer or tank for easy cleanup.
