Case Study: Real Business, Real Results

The Old Forge Inn, a popular gastropub in Hereford, found their existing grill was creating a bottleneck during their busy Friday and  Saturday services. They needed a more powerful and  reliable solution to keep up with customer demand for their signature grilled dishes.

"The Blaze chargrill has been a fantastic addition. The heat is incredibly consistent across the entire surface, and  our steaks have never been better. It gets up to temperature quickly and  just keeps on going, no matter how many orders we throw at it. It's a proper, solid piece of kit."

Robert Davies – Head Chef at The Old Forge Inn

Since installing the Blaze CRB48, the pub's kitchen has successfully increased its output of grilled main courses by over 30% during peak service times, significantly reducing ticket times and  improving customer satisfaction.

Installation and  Maintenance Guide

Setting It Up

  • Ensure the unit is placed on a stable, level, and  fire-proof countertop with adequate ventilation.
  • Installation must be carried out by a qualified Gas Safe registered engineer to comply with UK regulations.
  • Before first use, season the cast iron grates by lightly coating with cooking oil and  heating for 20-30 minutes.
  • Evenly distribute the supplied lava rocks across the tray, ensuring they don't obstruct the burners.

Keeping It Going

  • After each service, use a wire brush to clean food debris from the hot cast iron grates.
  • Wipe down the stainless steel exterior daily with a soft cloth and  suitable cleaner to maintain its finish.
  • Periodically remove and  check the lava rocks; replace them when they become overly saturated with grease.
  • Ensure the grease collection tray is emptied regularly to prevent overflow and  maintain hygiene.

Buying Guide: Choosing the Right Commercial Gas Chargrill

Not sure which chargrill is the perfect fit for your kitchen? Here are a few key things to consider to make the right choice.

Gas Type vs. Your Kitchen

Check your supply first! This is a natural gas chargrill. If you use LPG, you'll need a different model or a conversion kit if available.

Size and  Capacity

Consider your peak service demands. A larger grill area, like on this 4 burner model, means more output and  faster ticket times.

Heat Source: Lava Rock or Radiant?

Lava rocks provide an authentic, smoky flavour as drippings vaporise. Radiant models offer direct, intense heat. Choose based on your menu's style.

Grate Material Matters

Cast iron grates, like these, offer superior heat retention for perfect sear marks. Stainless steel is lighter and  can be easier to clean.

Control is Key

Independent burner controls provide fantastic flexibility, allowing you to create different heat zones for different foods and  save energy.

More Than Just Heat: The Magic of Lava Rocks

Ever wondered what makes a chargrill taste so much better than a standard griddle? The secret is often in the lava rocks. Think of them as flavour amplifiers. When you're cooking, natural juices and  marinades drip down from the food onto the hot rocks below. Instead of just burning away, these drippings instantly vaporise into flavour-packed smoke and  steam.

This smoke then rises and  envelops the food you're cooking, infusing it with that classic, smoky, outdoor BBQ taste that's impossible to replicate otherwise. It’s the difference between just cooking with heat and  cooking with flavour. The porous nature of the rocks distributes heat evenly too, helping to eliminate 'hot spots' and  ensuring a more consistent cook across the entire grill.

Who Should Buy This?

  • Restaurants & Steakhouses: An essential tool for consistently delivering perfectly seared steaks, chicken, and  gourmet burgers to your diners.
  • Gastropubs & Hotels: Effortlessly upgrade your menu with authentic, flame-grilled flavours for everything from Sunday roasts to bar snacks.
  • High-Volume Takeaways: The ideal 4 burner gas chargrill for kebab shops or peri-peri chicken outlets needing serious power and  capacity.
  • Event Caterers: A robust and  reliable unit that can handle the intense demands of food festivals, weddings, and  outdoor events.
