Wells B-50 36-1/2" Countertop Electric Charbroiler, 32" x 20" Grid, 10,800W, 208/240V
Description
A 36-1/2-inch electric charbroiler that sits on the counter and broils up to 700 hamburgers an hour without a gas line.
The Wells B-50 is an electric countertop charbroiler with a stainless steel top and sides. Self-cleaning elements sit between the ribs of the heavy-duty cast iron grates, so food and spatulas do not touch them, and they cook by both conduction and radiant heat. The 32" x 20" grid (640 sq. in.) has two heat zones, each with its own control, and it reaches 600°F in about 10 minutes. It connects to 208V or 240V through a terminal block and stands on 4" adjustable legs.
