OPERATING SUGGESTIONS
Open-Top Burners
Open-top burners are quickly lit and require no preheating time. Open top burners have a wide low to
high burner flame adjustment range. This allows for better simmering performance at the lowest
possible stabilized setting. When simmering, turn the burner valve knob down until you reach the
optimum lowest burner flame setting to maintain the desired simmer point.
Manual Griddle
Pre-heat the griddle top for approximately 15 - 20 minutes before cooking. The top can be kept hot with
burners turned partially down. During off periods, turn the burners down or heat only half of the top.
Thermostatic Griddle
Pre-heat the griddle top for approximately 15 - 20 minutes before cooking. The griddle thermostats
regulate temperatures for each 12" section of the griddle from a low setting at approximately 200°F
(93°C) to high setting at approximately 550°F (288°C).
Standard Oven Cooking
Allow time to preheat ovens before using (25 minutes to 400°F [204°C]). The oven thermostat regulates
temperature from a low setting at approximately 250°F (121°C) to high setting at approximately 500°F
(260°C). If properly used, the automatic temperature control is an efficient system. Turn thermostat
down to LOW when oven is idling, or turn the oven control to OFF when not in use.
Moderate oven temperatures will produce better food, reduce shrinkage and keep maintenance costs
down. Using a low temperature for roasting (recommended 325°F [162°C] or lower) will reduce meat
costs by reducing shrinkage.
A pan of water (approximately 12" x 20" x 1" [305 mm x 508 mm x 25.4 mm]) may be placed in the
oven bottom. This water supplies humidity to reduce shrinkage. If necessary, add water during roasting.
Convection Oven Cooking
Cooking time and temperature in convection oven may vary slightly from normal time and temperature.
LOADING AND UNLOADING THE OVEN
Open the door and load the oven as quickly as practical to conserve heat. Take care to avoid spilling
liquids while loading. Close the door and refer to recipe for cooking time.
