Eliminate Microwaves with a Cadco VariKwik Oven

Whether it's a neighborhood bar with the most popular late-night menu in town or a daytime cafe struggling to keep up with an early morning rush, operators are often in search of new ways to quickly cook food. Microwave ovens have long been a staple of many commercial kitchens, but this method of cooking and reheating can have a detrimental effect on the quality of some food, especially items that include bread. Fortunately, the engineers at Cadco have designed a better way to cook sandwiches, pizzas, croissants, and other popular items: the VariKwik oven, which cooks without microwaves.

About the VariKwik Oven

The VariKwik oven is a high-speed cooking solution capable of using three heat types during the cooking process: convection, conduction, and infrared. It has a compact countertop design with an optional stacking kit, so two of these ovens can be stacked on top of each other to maximize the available space. This line includes several models that offer different exteriors and power options. The VK-220 offers a 14 inch by 14 inch cooking area with 220-volt electrical operation. The VKII-220SS+, is a stainless steal model with a higher amperage and wattage.

Each model includes an anodized, non-stick CrisPlate™ cooking plate, two height options for the cooking plate, and a large spatula to remove items from the cooking chamber. Other standard features include digital controls with a touchscreen display, customizable cooking programs, a maximum cooking temperature of 500 degrees Fahrenheit, and an audible alarm to indicate the end of each cooking cycle.
