What Is a Commercial Charbroiler?

A commercial charbroiler is an appliance that is frequently used by restaurants to serve grilled food to customers and patrons. Diners and fast food restaurants are the usual food establishments that utilize a commercial charbroiler in their kitchens. A commercial charbroil unit is ideal for grilling chicken, hamburgers, fish, steaks, kebabs, and the like.

There are several kinds of restaurant broilers, including restaurant broilers (generally be found in restaurant kitchens) and mobile commercial charbroilers (utilized in small kiosks serving food on the street, outside sports stadiums picnics, at the beach, or in the backyard for a quick barbecue).

The Difference Between a Radiant Charbroiler and a Lava Rock Charbroiler

What is the difference between a radiant broiler and a lava rock charbroiler? The main difference is in the heat transfer to the food. On a radiant charbroiler, the burner is found under a cast metal radiant from which the heat is radiated toward the food being grilled. The radiant is usually pitched like a roof that allows excess juice to run off and not carbonize. However, some of the juice or drippings from the meat is actually burned, which gives off that distinctly grilled aroma. 

A lava rock charbroiler, on the other hand, uses a bed of lava rock placed above the burners to catch and radiate the heat toward the food that is being grilled above. The porous lava rock catches and holds the drippings which, when heated, give off the aroma associated with grilled meat. Both a lava rock charbroiler and a radiant broiler are equally effective especially when used by an experienced cook.
