GRIDDLE OPERATION
PREPARING THE GRIDDLE SURFACE
1. SEASONING STANDARD GRIDDLES
As manufactured, the steel surface of your Wells griddle has
microscopic pores. It is important to fill these pores with oil in order
to provide a hard, non-stick cooking surface.
a. Preheat the griddle surface to 375ºF (191ºC).
b. Spread a light film of cooking oil over the entire griddle surface
c. Allow the oil film to cook in for approximately 2 minutes, or until
it smokes.
d. Wipe the griddle surface with a clean damp cloth until all oil is
removed.
e. For new griddles, repeat this procedure 2-3 times until the
griddle has a slick, clean surface.
2. CHROME PLATED GRIDDLES
Because the microscopic pores in the griddle surface are filled by
the chrome plating, no seasoning of the griddle surface is required.
a. Thoroughly clean the griddle surface using a soft clean cloth
and a small amount of mild detergent.
b. Rinse and dry thoroughly after cleaning.
c. The griddle is now ready to use.
USING THE GRIDDLE
1. Turn the temperature control knob to the desired temperature.
The indicator light will glow while the griddle is heating. When the
indicator light first goes out, the griddle is ready to use.
2. For standard griddles, keep the griddle surface clean and well oiled
during use. Scrape cooking waste into the grease tray frequently
during use. Occasionally brush or spray a light coat of cooking oil
on the griddle surface in order to maintain the non-stick surface.
3. For chrome plated griddles, scrape cooking waste into the grease
tray after preparing each order.
DO NOT bang or tap pots, pans, spatulas or other metal utensils on
the griddle surface as this may damage the chrome plating.
CAUTION:
HOT SURFACE
Exposed surfaces can be hot
to the touch and may cause
burns.
NOTE:
Standard griddles must be
seasoned after every cleaning.
IMPORTANT:
FOR CHROMED GRIDDLES,
SCRATCHES WILL DAMAGE
THE GRIDDLE SURFACE!
DO NOT use anything on this
griddle that could scratch the
surface.
DO NOT clean chrome surface
with griddle bricks, pumice
stone or abrasive cleansers.
DO NOT bang or tap pots,
pans, spatulas or other metal
utensils on the griddle surface
as this may damage the
chrome plating.
