The MagiKitch'n APM-RMB-648 Radiant Charbroiler delivers 156,000 BTU across a 48-inch cooking surface, making it suitable for high-volume commercial kitchens. This countertop unit operates on natural gas or LP and features stainless steel radiants paired with a free-floating rod grate system. At 700 pounds, the charbroiler requires a reinforced counter or equipment stand capable of supporting its weight along with the load of food products during service.
The unit's 35.5-inch depth and 21.5-inch height allow it to fit standard commercial counter configurations while providing ample broiling capacity. The free-floating rod grate design allows for thermal expansion during operation and simplifies grate removal for cleaning. Installation requires appropriate gas line sizing to deliver 156,000 BTU, proper ventilation with a Type I hood system, and clearances per local codes and the manufacturer's specifications.
Included accessories are a grate set and scraper for routine maintenance. The charbroiler is backed by a 1-year parts warranty. Heavy-duty construction and radiant heat distribution make this model appropriate for steakhouses, casual dining establishments, and other operations where consistent broiling performance is required throughout extended service periods.
