The Vollrath 36" heavy-duty gas griddle scales the 24" model's 1" polished surface and U-shaped burner design to a 36" cooking span with 90,000 BTU total output — the standard size for high-volume flat-top cooking operations. Three burner zones across 36" distribute heat evenly across the full surface. Manual control knob, thick back and sloped sides.
Stainless steel construction. ETL, ETL Sanitation, CETL.


The Vollrath 36" heavy-duty gas griddle is the workhorse format for commercial flat-top cooking — a 36" cooking surface is the standard for high-volume breakfast operations, burger and sandwich production lines, and the full range of griddle-forward commercial cooking programs. At 36", a single cook can manage the full surface efficiently, reaching all cooking zones without repositioning, while handling the production volume of a commercial service period.
90,000 BTU across the 36" surface maintains the cooking temperature needed for continuous production at commercial volumes. Breakfast operations frying eggs, pancakes, and proteins simultaneously; burger concepts cooking multiple patties across the full surface; sandwich programs toasting and griddling continuously through a lunch rush — all of these applications require the BTU output that the 36" heavy-duty griddle provides without compromise.
The 1" thick polished cooking surface is the thermal mass that makes the 36" format work under production load. A 36" surface loaded with cold product across its full width experiences significant thermal demand — the surface needs enough mass to absorb this cold-load stress and recover quickly. The 1" thickness provides that mass, maintaining more consistent surface temperature through continuous production than thinner surfaces that cycle with each product load.
U-shaped burners at 36" distribute heat across the full cooking span. Manual control knob provides simple, reliable temperature control for single-zone production. Thick back and sloped sides contain grease and direct splatter toward the grease management area. Stainless steel construction throughout.
