The Vollrath 48" heavy-duty gas griddle delivers 120,000 BTU across a 1" thick polished 48" cooking surface — a two-cook or high-volume single-station griddle for restaurants, diners, and food service operations with heavy flat-top production demands. U-shaped burners across the full 48" span maintain even surface temperature for consistent cooking quality across all cooking zones. Manual control knob, thick back and sloped sides.
Stainless steel construction. ETL, ETL Sanitation, CETL.


The Vollrath 48" heavy-duty gas griddle is the high-volume flat-top format for kitchens where two cooks work the griddle simultaneously or where a single cook manages the full volume of a busy commercial service on a single surface. At 48" with 120,000 BTU, the griddle provides enough cooking width and thermal output to support the production demands of high-volume diners, hotel breakfast operations, full-service restaurant breakfast and lunch programs, and any food service operation where the flat-top griddle is the primary cooking station.
Two cooks at 48" each have 24" of dedicated cooking space — the same width as the smallest standalone heavy-duty griddle in this line. This two-cook configuration allows parallel production of different menu items (eggs and proteins on one side, pancakes and vegetables on the other) without the temperature contamination and spatial conflicts that occur when two cooks share a smaller surface.
120,000 BTU across 48" maintains the surface temperature needed for continuous high-volume production. The U-shaped burners across the full span ensure that the far ends of the 48" surface receive the same BTU distribution as the center — preventing the end-temperature drop that insufficiently powerful burner configurations produce at the edges of a wide surface.
The 1" polished surface is particularly important at 48" under high-volume load. A 48" surface loaded with product across its full width represents a substantial cold-load challenge — the surface's thermal mass must absorb the incoming cold energy without dropping below cooking temperature. The 1" thick surface provides that mass at the full 48" width.
