Using Gas Burners in Commercial Cooking

Benefits of Gas Burners

Do you ever wonder how your pizza gets that crispy crust you love so much, or how that burger gets grilled to perfection? Aside from the amazing restaurants and chefs, you have gas combustion burners to thank for it. These burners can be found in pizza ovens, griddles, commercial smokers and convection ovens. Restaurants rely daily on their gas burners so they are able to provide the food customers know and love.

Consistency & Quality When Cooking

When selecting equipment for a commercial kitchen, chefs have an option between gas and electric cooking equipment. Although electric equipment is offered as an alternative, gas-fired equipment still remains a favorite among many chefs and restaurants. One of the benefits of using gas equipment is the ability to quickly control the temperature of the appliance. By changing the temperature of the gas appliance, which adjusts the operation of the gas through the burner, chefs are able to optimize the performance of the cooking zone, which allows for fewer fluctuations in the preparation of food orders being prepared.

Reliable Cooking Method 

Gas burners give restaurants and chefs peace of mind, knowing that they can be ready to cook in a matter of seconds. Just by flipping a switch or turning a knob, a flame is immediately formed and provides heat. Gas burners can also allow users to easily identify the level of heat they are using, just by looking at the flame size. With an electric stove, it requires the heating element, or large thick coil, to warm up before the appliance can be used.

Quicker Cool-Down Times

Gas griddles and convection ovens have a quicker cool-down time than electric stoves—this goes back to the heating element previously mentioned. For electric stoves, the heating element has to cool down and this takes time for it to reach a cooler temperature. This means that food placed on an electric stove burner will continue to cook for a longer period of time. Just as easy as cooks are able to turn on the gas ranges, they are able to easily turn it off and the surface quickly cools, reducing the time food continues to cook.
