Case Study: Real Business, Real Results

The Corner Slice, a popular brunch spot in Cardiff, needed to upgrade its ageing griddle which was causing bottlenecks due to severe hot spots and  slow recovery times during the weekend rush.

"The new Lincat LGR2 countertop griddle has been brilliant. The heat is consistent right across the plate, so we can use every single inch of it. We're getting breakfast orders out faster and  the quality is spot on every time. Our chefs are definitely less stressed!"

Michael Davies – Head Chef

Since installing the Lincat, The Corner Slice has reduced its average ticket time for cooked breakfasts by nearly 25% during its busiest periods.

Installation and  Maintenance Guide

Setting It Up

  • Ensure the griddle is on a stable, level, and  non-combustible surface.
  • Leave at least 100mm of space around the unit for proper ventilation.
  • Before first use, clean the griddle plate thoroughly with warm, soapy water and then 'season' it with a light coating of cooking oil.
  • Simply plug it into a standard 13A socket and  you're ready to pre-heat.

Keeping It Going

  • After each use, scrape down the surface while it's still warm (not hot!) to remove food debris.
  • Regularly empty and  clean the front-access grease collection drawer to prevent overflow.
  • Wipe down the stainless steel body with a damp cloth and  a suitable cleaner.
  • Periodically check the power cord and  plug for any signs of wear or damage.

Buying Guide: Choosing the Right Commercial Griddle

Not sure which griddle is the perfect match for your kitchen? Here are a few pointers to help you decide.

Size and  Space

Measure your available counter space carefully. Think about your busiest service—will this griddle handle the volume you need without causing a bottleneck?

Power Source

Electric griddles like this Lincat LGR2 offer incredible convenience with plug-and-go installation. Just make sure you have a suitable 13A socket nearby.

Your Menu Matters

What will you be cooking most? A smooth steel plate is a brilliant all-rounder, perfect for everything from eggs and  bacon to burgers and  vegetables.

Cleaning and  Upkeep

Look for features that make life easier. An integrated splashguard and  a removable fat drainage drawer are non-negotiable for a quick and  easy clean-down.

Brand Reputation

Investing in a trusted brand like Lincat means reliability, better build quality, and  easier access to spare parts if you ever need them down the line.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Do I need to season the griddle plate before I use it?

A: Yes, it's highly recommended. Cleaning it and then heating it with a thin layer of cooking oil before the first use will create a non-stick surface and  protect the plate.

Q: How long does it take to heat up?

A: Thanks to its powerful 3.0 kW element, the LGR2 heats up very quickly from cold, usually reaching cooking temperature in just a few minutes.

Q: Can I cook different types of food at the same time?

A: While this model has a single temperature zone, its large 615mm wide plate gives you plenty of space to cook multiple items like bacon, eggs, and  sausages simultaneously.

Q: Is the griddle plate made of cast iron or steel?

A: The Lincat LGR2 features a high-quality machined steel plate, which provides excellent, even heat distribution and  is very durable.

Q: What is the best way to clean the griddle?

A: The best time is when it's still warm. Use a griddle scraper to remove food residue, then wipe with a damp cloth. For tougher grime, a specialised griddle cleaner can be used.

Q: Does this unit need to be hardwired by an electrician?

A: No, this is a 'plug and  play' unit. It comes fitted with a standard 13 amp UK plug, so no specialist installation is required.

Q: Can I use this in a mobile catering trailer?

A: Absolutely. Its compact size, robust build, and  standard plug make it a very popular choice for mobile caterers, provided your generator or power supply can support the 3.0 kW load.

Q: Is the temperature accurate?

A: Yes, the thermostatic control is designed to be very accurate, ensuring you can cook with precision and  get consistent results every time.

Why Thermostatic Control is Your Secret Weapon

Ever wondered what 'thermostatic control' actually means for your cooking? Think of it like cruise control for your car, but for temperature. You set your desired heat—say, 180°C for perfect pancakes—and the griddle's internal thermostat constantly monitors the plate. If it drops even slightly, it sends a pulse of power to bring it right back up. If it gets too hot, it cuts the power. This means no more guesswork, no more burnt offerings, and  no more raw centres. It’s the key to getting identical, delicious results whether you're cooking your first burger of the day or your hundredth.

Who Should Buy This?

  • Busy Cafés: Perfect for mastering the full English breakfast, pancakes, and  toasted paninis with reliable, even heat.
  • Pubs & Small Restaurants: A fantastic restaurant electric double griddle for searing steaks, grilling chicken, and  frying onions for burgers.
  • Mobile Catering Vans: Its simple plug-and-play setup makes it an ideal, powerful cooking station for any event or festival.
  • Farm Shops & Delis: Great for adding a hot food-to-go option, like sizzling sausages or gourmet grilled cheese sandwiches.
