Stainless Grill - Char-Broilers - Radiant Broiler - Lava Rock Broiler

Broilers are used in preparing a wide variety of meats, chicken, and fish. These char broilers provide a distinct “charbroiled” taste and appearance. They also give your product a distinct charbroiled aroma which is highly desirable in most establishments. Char broilers are great for providing a consistent cooking temperature with minimal recovery. By focusing the heat source, you can cook more in less time. Charbroilers also run at higher heat levels meaning more BTU energy consumption. Always check your local fire codes to make sure you have an adequate ventilation system in your kitchen. The following is a brief overview the different types of commercial charbroilers available .

Lava Rock Charbroilers by Furnotel ShinelongRadiant heat is a system in which the heat energy is transferred from the radiant directly to the charbroiler's grate. In a radiant heated charbroiler the radiant grates are generally made of cast iron and typically have angles to deflect the heat giving you more control over the temperature. Vulcan offers certain units with infrared energy to heat the grates. This type of charbroiler normally costs more but cooks faster and uses less energy than standard charbroilers. There are many common misuses of the word infrared when speaking about a charbroiler. Generally speaking, most of your over-fired charbroilers (flame is above the product and heat is pushed down using air) are infrared heat broilers.

Radiant Charbroiler by Furnotel-shinelong In this type of char broiling system, the lava rocks(also know as char rocks) are heated by the flame and in turn heat the broiler's grate. These char rocks provide you with a considerable amount of BTU heat energy. Char rocks and lava rocks are in many ways similar to the type of coals used in outdoor BBQ cooking and like BBQ coals, will need to be replaced periodically.
