ABOUT THE GRIDDLE

(Available on some models)

DESCRIPTION

The built in griddle is made of restaurant quality aluminum coated with titanium. This produces a surface with even heat that is easy to clean.

The griddle has an aluminized steel tube burner that is lit by a spark igniter. The griddle should light within 4 clicks of the igniter. This eliminates the need for a continuous burning pilot light.

A maple chopping block and stainless steel cover are available as accessories and purchased separately. It is sized to fit on top of the surface when the griddle is not being used.

•The burner is rated at 15,000 BTU / HR.
