The Southbend Counterline Gas Charbroiler is a high-efficiency, space-saving solution for kitchens that demand powerful grilling in a compact, countertop format. Available in 12-inch widths, this gas charbroiler is ideal for smaller kitchen setups, food trucks, or as an auxiliary cooking station in larger operations. Built for performance and flexibility, it supports both radiant and briquette cooking styles, making it an excellent choice for chefs who value adaptability in their cooking surface.
Each unit features 20,000 BTU stainless steel burners per 6 inches, delivering consistent, even heat for searing meats, vegetables, and more. The charbroiler’s stainless steel front and sides ensure durability and easy cleaning, while the aluminized steel rear and bottom panels enhance structural strength and resist corrosion from high heat. Double-wall, reinforced insulated side panels retain heat while maintaining safe external temperatures—ideal for busy line setups.
The cooking system is designed for flexibility and ease of use. Cast iron radiants provide reliable heat transfer, and the unit is field convertible between radiant and briquette configurations, allowing chefs to tailor the cooking method to their menu. The two-position, two-sided cooking grids accommodate a variety of cooking styles, with wide or narrow branding grates available for signature grill marks and presentation.
Other key features include a 4-inch spatula-width grease trough for efficient cleanup, 5-inch high rear and side splash guards to contain mess and grease, and a full-width stainless steel crumb tray for easy maintenance during high-volume use. A 3/4-inch rear gas connection and included pressure regulator ensure straightforward installation and reliable gas flow in any commercial kitchen setting.
Whether you’re searing steaks in a steakhouse, grilling burgers in a café, or adding a flexible grill solution to a catering setup, the Southbend Counterline Charbroiler delivers dependable performance, rugged construction, and customizable cooking options—all in a countertop-sized footprint.
