An optional Programmable Control is also available for the SB-5-ES and SB-10-ES. The Programmable Control allows you to set and run specific programs as menus complete and total control of your production program.

A Meat Probe is also available for either Manual or Programmable Control units. The Meat Probe allows you to use the internal temperature of your product to control the operation of the SB-5-ES or SB-10-ES. When used with the Hold feature of the Smoker you can load your product in the morning (or the night before) and not bother with it again until you are ready to use it.

AVAILABILITY FOR TESTING:

A prospective customer may see a unit in operation as follows:

At an existing installation

At a dealer's showroom

At the Southbend manufacturing facility

If contacted, Southbend will provide the information on the nearest location. In the event that a customer desires to test a unit at his place of business, arrangements can be made based on a specifically defined program. In the event that a customer wants to try a special product, arrangements can be made to determine what conditions are necessary for baking so the customer can determine the suitability for his program.

COMPARISON WITH OTHER UNITS:

Southbend will provide test data or a test unit for the comparison of results with any other unit on the market; however, Southbend reserves the right to have its designated representatives available during the test. All results of such comparison tests will be made available to Southbend and may be used by Southbend. As stated previously, Southbend operating costs compare favorably with gas convection ovens and our ovens generally do not require hoods. Based on production of consistent quality products from the Southbend Oven, as well as baking times, Southbend out-performs the competition.

CONSTRUCTION:

All combination Ovens in this series are constructed of stainless steel inside and outside. All of the frame members are welded to provide long life construction. Components such as temperature and humidity controls, timers, switches, motors, heating elements and other such items are thoroughly tested before shipment. On-going research and development projects are used to introduce the latest and most dependable parts.

SHIPMENT:

Southbend units are usually shipped directly from the factory or delivered from a dealer, unless sold at a show or after a test or demonstration. Unless otherwise agreed to by Southbend , freight is paid by the buyer F.O.B. from the Southbend manufacturing facility in Menominee, Michigan. Shipping time varies, depending upon the shipping point, the time of year, and shippers used. Usually Southbend prefers three weeks lead time, but can reduce the time, in some instances, on an emergency basis.

Southbend employs accepted packaging standards to ensure that your equipment arrives in excellent condition. However, damage may still occur through negligent handling or accident on the part of the shipping company. Southbend works closely with all of its customers in tracing shipments to delivery and to minimize handling.

SB-5-ES, SB-10-ES specifications

The Southbend SB-10-ES and SB-5-ES are two of the standout models in Southbend's esteemed lineup of commercial ranges designed for kitchens that prioritize both functionality and efficiency. These ranges are built for chefs and culinary professionals who require reliable equipment that can handle the rigors of daily use.

The SB-10-ES features ten burners, each designed to deliver high BTU output, ensuring rapid heating and exceptional cooking performance. A hallmark of Southbend products is their focus on energy efficiency, and the SB-10-ES incorporates advanced burner technology that maximizes heat retention while minimizing gas consumption. The heavy-duty cast iron grates not only provide excellent heat transfer but also support various cookware sizes, making them versatile for numerous cooking tasks.

On the other hand, the SB-5-ES is a more compact option, featuring five burners. It is ideal for kitchens where space is at a premium but still offers all the quality and durability that Southbend is known for. Like the SB-10-ES, the SB-5-ES also uses high-output burners that allow for quick and efficient cooking, making it an excellent choice for smaller operations or satellite kitchens.

Both models are equipped with robust stainless-steel construction, which enhances their durability and makes them easy to clean. The seamless design also helps to prevent the accumulation of grease and food particles, ensuring a sanitary cooking environment.

A standout characteristic of the SB-10-ES and SB-5-ES is their intuitive control system. Each burner features a separate control knob that allows precise temperature adjustments, giving chefs the flexibility to manage multiple dishes concurrently. This is especially important in high-pressure cooking environments where timing and temperature control are critical.

An additional feature of both models is the stainless steel backguard, designed to protect walls from heat and splatter while providing an aesthetically pleasing look. The integrated oven options available with these ranges allow for easy baking and roasting, catering to a variety of culinary needs.

In summary, whether you choose the Southbend SB-10-ES with its ten burners or the more compact SB-5-ES, you are investing in quality equipment that embodies innovation, efficiency, and durability—traits that have solidified Southbend’s reputation in the commercial kitchen industry. These models are well-suited for both aspiring chefs and seasoned professionals looking to enhance their cooking experience.
