Vollrath 40736 Description

At only 12 inches wide, the Vollrath 40736 Cayenne® gas hotplate can cook two different products in a compact footprint. Burners are arranged front-to-back and have individual cast iron grates, which are heavy and retain heat well, even when new, colder product is added. When cooking, a full-width tray catches grease, keeping it off the countertop. This single tray can be removed for cleaning the collected waste at the end of each day.

A bull-nose edge on the front extends past the hot surface to protect users and keep grease off the knobs. For durability, the knobs have guards and the body is made of stainless and aluminized steel. This Vollrath 40736 gas hotplate can be lit through the front opening and uses natural gas—or LP gas when using the included conversion kit.
