Commercial Cooking Equipment

Last Updated: 18th Apr 2024

Cooking equipment is a wide and varied term especially when it comes to commercial catering appliances. Typically used to describe larger equipment that deals with the main brunt of cooking in a commercial kitchen, this includes essentials such as all types of ovens and range cookers, commercial microwaves, chicken rotisseries, chargrills and griddles, kebab machines, commercial fryers, boiling tops, induction hobs and pasta boilers, barbecues and hog roasts, atmospheric steamers, food smokers, and bratt pans. The term 'cooking equipment' can also be used to categorise some small catering appliances that, while not as large, are just as important to the functioning of some businesses. Look out for hot dog equipment, waffle and crepe makers, rice cookers, sous vide machines, and commercial toasters.
