Summerset Pro 30" Built-In Griddle – 36,000 BTUs
8mm 304 Stainless Surface, Built for Every Meal of the Day
From sunrise breakfasts to steakhouse sears, all on one heavy-gauge plate.
The Summerset Pro Series 30-Inch Built-In Gas Griddle (GRIDPRO) turns your outdoor kitchen into a true flat-top cooking station. An 8mm-thick 304 stainless steel cooking surface holds and transfers heat evenly across 495 sq in of cooking space, powered by two independent 18,000 BTU U-tube burners for a combined 36,000 BTUs. LED front panel lighting with white-to-red bezel indicators keeps burner status visible after dark, and a removable 304 stainless lid protects the surface between cooks. Available in natural gas or liquid propane, this built-in gas griddle is designed for a clean, integrated island install.
Key Features & Benefits
Every detail on the Pro Series 30 is built to give you restaurant-style control on a residential island.
304 Stainless Cooking Surface
A heavy-gauge plate that holds heat and recovers fast between batches — no waiting for the surface to come back up to temperature.
Dual 18,000 BTU U-Tube Burners
Two independently controlled burners let you sear on one side and hold a gentle simmer on the other — no more juggling one heat zone.
Full Flat-Top Cooking Area
Enough room to run breakfast, lunch, and dinner service for a crowd without crowding the plate.
Full Stainless Steel Construction
A 304 stainless chassis resists corrosion and warping, so it holds its look through repeated high-heat sessions and outdoor exposure.
Front Panel & Bezel Lighting
White-to-red bezel indicators show burner status at a glance, so managing heat zones after dark doesn't mean guessing.
Removable 304 Stainless Lid
Keeps the plate shielded from rain, dust, and debris between cooks, so your island stays presentation-ready.
Built-In Ready, NG or LP
The Pro Series 30 is engineered for a flush, built-in island install, with select freestanding cart configurations available separately where offered. Choose your fuel type, natural gas or liquid propane, above before checkout. Flame-thrower ignition lights the burners reliably without external power.
Two Independent Heat Zones
Each U-tube burner operates on its own control, so you can run two distinct temperatures at once — high heat for a sear on one side, a gentle hold on the other.
Who the Pro Series 30 Griddle Is For
- Outdoor kitchen builders who want to add breakfast and flat-top versatility alongside an existing grill.
- Entertainers and large families who need to cook multiple dishes at once across a wide, even surface.
- Smash burger and teppanyaki fans looking for the high, consistent heat a thick stainless plate delivers.
- Evening and after-dark cooks who'll appreciate the LED bezel lighting for tracking burner zones.
- Anyone upgrading a built-in island who wants a clean, flush-mounted appliance rather than a freestanding flat-top.
