Product Information
Full details
The Buffalo Extra Large Contact Grill is designed for high-volume commercial kitchens and catering environments that require rapid, consistent cooking performance. This heavy-duty appliance excels at preparing steaks, fish, bacon, and eggs simultaneously thanks to its high-capacity dual-plate heating system, though its substantial weight and 2.5kW power draw mean it is best suited for a permanent, dedicated countertop station.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Ensure the unit is placed on a heat-resistant, level surface with adequate clearance for ventilation. Given the 2.5kW power requirement, verify your electrical supply meets the specifications before initial use. Before first operation, the cast iron plates should be cleaned and lightly oiled to prevent rusting and food adhesion. Following each service, ensure the grease tray is removed and emptied. To clean the plates, use a non-abrasive scraper while the grill is warm to remove debris, then wipe down with a damp cloth. Never submerge the electrical components or the body of the grill in water.
