Atosa CookRite ATG-3624-C 36-Inch Thermostatic Chrome Plated Griddle - Natural Gas, 90,000 BTU

Atosa CookRite ATG-3624-C 36" Thermostatic Chrome Plated Griddle — Natural Gas, 90,000 BTU

The Atosa CookRite ATG-3624-C is a 36" countertop commercial gas griddle with a 1" thick chrome plated griddle plate, built for diners, breakfast restaurants, burger joints, and open kitchens that want easier food release, less flavor transfer, and a cooler cook line. Independent thermostatic controls on each 12" section let you run three temperature zones at once, from 200°F to 450°F.

Three U-shaped 30,000 BTU burners deliver 90,000 BTU/h total, and the thermostats automatically cycle the burners to hold your set temperature, so every batch cooks the same way.

Why Chrome Plated?

Chrome plating changes how the griddle works in your kitchen:

• Cooler kitchen — the chrome surface reduces radiant heat into the kitchen, so more heat goes into the food and less into your cooks
• Easier food release — chrome minimizes sticking, which helps with eggs, pancakes, and delicate items
• Less flavor transfer — cook fish, onions, and pancakes on the same plate with less carryover between items
• Lower energy use — keeping heat on the plate instead of radiating into the room can help reduce energy costs

Built for Precise, Consistent Griddle Cooking

• Diners and breakfast restaurants — eggs, pancakes, and hash browns release cleanly on three zones
• Open kitchens and display cooking — less radiant heat toward staff and guests
• Burger and sandwich shops — smash burgers, grilled onions, and toasted buns with less flavor carryover
• Seafood and mixed menus — fish and breakfast items on the same plate without flavor transfer
• Institutional kitchens — consistent results no matter who is on the line

Independent Thermostatic Controls

Each 12" section has its own thermostatic control with a 200°F–450°F range. Unlike manual griddles, which run at a fixed flame, a thermostatic griddle cycles the burners on and off to hold the temperature you set. The 36" x 24" work area is surrounded by 2mm thick, 14-gauge stainless steel rear and side splashes.

Safety and Cleanup

• Standing pilot ignition with standby pilots and automatic gas shut-off if the pilot goes out
• Protruding front edge design with a 12-3/4" working height to reduce operator contact with the hot plate
• Stainless steel grease drawer (6-3/4"W x 17-1/2"D x 2-1/2"H, 4-quart capacity) for fast cleanup
• Stainless steel exterior and interior with stainless steel knobs and legs

Specifications

Installation

The ATG-3624-C connects to a natural gas supply through a 3/4" NPT rear gas connection, and a regulator is included. Confirm your gas line and meter can supply the full 90,000 BTU load. Maintain 6" clearance to combustible construction at the rear and 4"–6" at the sides (0" to non-combustible construction). Like all commercial gas cooking equipment, it must be installed under a properly sized commercial kitchen hood by a licensed gas professional.

Other Sizes and Finishes

The ATG chrome plated line also comes in 24", 48", and 60" widths. Prefer a traditional steel plate at a lower price? See the polished steel ATG-3624-S.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are the benefits of a chrome plated griddle?

Chrome plating reduces radiant heat into the kitchen, minimizes food sticking and flavor transfer, and can help lower energy use by keeping more heat on the cooking surface.

What is the difference between the ATG-3624-C and the ATG-3624-S?

Both are 36" thermostatic griddles with the same burners, controls, and dimensions. The ATG-3624-C has a 1" chrome plated plate. The ATG-3624-S has a 1" polished steel plate and costs less.

What is the temperature range of the ATG-3624-C?

200°F to 450°F, set independently for each 12" section.

How many BTUs is the ATG-3624-C?

90,000 BTU/h total from three U-shaped 30,000 BTU burners.

Is the ATG-3624-C natural gas?

Yes. This model is sold for natural gas, with a 3/4" NPT rear gas connection and a regulator included.

How do I clean a chrome griddle?

Clean the chrome plate with non-abrasive tools and cleaners made for chrome griddles. Avoid metal scrapers, pumice stones, and abrasive pads, which can damage the chrome surface.

What is the difference between a thermostatic and a manual griddle?

A manual griddle runs at a fixed flame setting. A thermostatic griddle cycles the burners to hold the exact temperature you set, which gives more consistent cooking and can lower gas use during slow periods.
