LeGriddle Built-In Griddles

What is the difference between Le Griddle's Commercial and Pro Series built-in griddles?

Both are natural gas built-in flat tops offered in the same 40, 75 and 105 sizes, and the Pro Series adds interior lights plus optional matte black front panels. The Commercial 75 and 105 are the straightforward stainless versions. Burner count and plate options match size for size, so the decision comes down to finish and lighting rather than cooking capability.

How many burners does a Le Griddle built-in griddle have?

Gas Le Griddle built-in griddles run from a single burner on the Pro Series 40 up to three burners on the Commercial 105 and Pro Series 105, with the 75 models sitting at two. The electric Ranch Hand is a two-zone unit and the Wee Griddle is a single-burner model. More burners means more independently controlled zones across the plate.

Should I choose an electric or natural gas Le Griddle built-in griddle?

Choose electric if there is no gas line at the install location or you want indoor and outdoor flexibility; the 16-inch griddle with lid, the Ranch Hand and the Wee Griddle are the electric options. Choose natural gas if the island is already plumbed and you want higher output over a larger plate, which is what the Commercial and Pro Series 75 and 105 models deliver.

What size cutout do I need for a Le Griddle built-in griddle?

Cutout dimensions differ by model, so take them from that specific product page rather than from the griddle's nominal size, and lay the island out around that number. Allow clearance for ventilation and check whether an insulating liner is needed for your surround material. Confirm all of it before framing or masonry goes in, because an undersized cutout is expensive to fix later.

Which Le Griddle built-in griddle fits a small patio?

The 16-inch electric griddle with lid is the smallest Le Griddle built-in griddle here and the easiest to fit, since it runs on 1800 watts from a standard outlet and needs no gas line. The single-burner Wee Griddle is the next step up. Both suit balconies, compact islands and small patios where a three-burner plate would never fit.

Which Le Griddle built-in griddle is best for cooking for a crowd?

The three-burner Commercial 105 and Pro Series 105 are the largest Le Griddle built-in griddles in this collection, giving you the widest plate and three separately controlled heat zones for running proteins, vegetables and sides at the same time. The two-burner 75 models are the middle option. Both sizes are available with either a 3mm or a 6mm griddle plate.

Can a Le Griddle built-in griddle be used indoors?

The electric Le Griddle models are built for indoor and outdoor use, including the 16-inch griddle with lid, so an electric unit is the one to specify for an indoor kitchen or an enclosed space. The natural gas models are outdoor kitchen equipment and need a proper gas supply and ventilation, which rules them out for indoor installation.

Is a built-in griddle worth adding next to a built-in grill?

A built-in griddle covers the cooking a grill cannot: eggs, pancakes, smash burgers, fajitas, fish and chopped vegetables that fall through grates. Putting a Le Griddle built-in griddle beside a grill head gives you a solid plate and open grates in the same island. Browse the wider Le Griddle collection to see carts, lids and trim kits as well.
