The Buffalo Bistro Double Contact Grill is a high-performance, professional-grade solution designed for commercial kitchens and catering operations that require consistent, high-volume output. With its dual, independently-controlled enamelled cast iron plates, this grill allows chefs to manage different cooking temperatures simultaneously, making it ideal for everything from paninis to proteins. While it offers superior heat retention and efficiency, its significant weight and power requirements mean it is best suited for stable, permanent kitchen workstations rather than portable catering events.

No, the plates are finished with a high-quality enamel coating, meaning they are ready for use immediately without seasoning.
Yes, the flat surface is ideal for browning chicken, fish, steaks, and paninis.
The grill features an adjustable temperature range between 100°C and 300°C.
The drip tray slides out easily from the unit; empty it regularly during operation to prevent overflow.
Yes, due to the cast iron construction, the unit is significant in weight and is best placed in a permanent location.
Yes, each side has its own thermostat allowing for different temperature settings for each plate.
Verify that the unit is plugged into a dedicated circuit with sufficient power and that the thermostat dial is set correctly.
Ensure the heavy-duty counter-balanced top plate is lowered completely; if issues persist, ensure no residue is blocking the contact points.
Setup:
Ensure the grill is placed on a flat, heat-resistant, and stable surface. Maintain a clearance of at least 10cm around all sides of the unit to allow for heat dissipation.
Compatibility:
This unit requires a robust electrical supply capable of handling 2.9kW. Verify your kitchen's circuit load before installation to avoid tripping breakers.
Care:
Always allow the grill to cool down completely before attempting to clean. Because the plates are enamelled, you should avoid using metal scouring pads or abrasive chemicals that could chip the coating. Wipe the plates down with a damp, non-abrasive cloth after each use and empty the drip tray daily to prevent grease buildup.
