Groen BPM-40GC 40 gal. Tilt Skillet - Open Leg Base, Polished Pan, Measurement Marks, Liquid Propane

Designed for institutional cooking, the Groen BPM-40GC braising pan can be used to braise, boil, fry, sauté, steam, and more. It has a large 40-gallon capacity that works well with high-volume operations. Inside the 10-inch-deep pan, its 5⁄8-inch-thick cooking plate resists warping as it repeatedly heats up and cools down. A gas burner and combustion chamber heat the surface so that heat distribution is efficient and uniform. Enabling cooks to add ingredients precisely and cook recipes consistently, gallon and liter marks are etched into the pan. Rounded corners in the pan eliminate hard-to-clean crevices.

Operators can tilt the pan with a hand crank to empty its contents. Although this method is not quite as smooth as electric tilt mechanisms, a worm-and-gear component provides precise control over the tilt. In 24 turns of the crank, users can move the body to a vertical position. To facilitate cleaning, it tilts past its vertical position, and it does not stop heating when tilted 7 degrees so that cooks can use it as a griddle with convenient grease runoff.

This unit has straightforward controls in an enclosed, water-resistant housing, as well as an on/off switch with a power-on indicator and heater-on indicator. Its temperature knob enables users to adjust the temperature to an ideal level between 175 and 425 degrees Fahrenheit. A faucet bracket is included with this Groen BPM-40GC tilt skillet, accommodating a single-pantry faucet for either hot or cold water or a double-pantry faucet for both hot and cold water. Because the base is open, users can clean underneath it, and its bullet feet maintain stability on uneven floors.
