Is Your Flat Top Grill Holding You Back?

If you've noticed customers becoming impatient due to slower service, you're not alone. The food service industry is currently facing staffing challenges, making it hard to provide quick and consistent service. But there’s a solution that can help: Taylor commercial double-sided grills.


Taylor’s clamshell grills are designed to cook food efficiently from both the top and the bottom, cutting cooking times in half. For example, when cooking burgers on a traditional flat top commercial grill, you’d typically need to cook them for 3-4 minutes on each side. However, with Taylor’s two sided grills, there’s no need to flip the burgers. You can cook up to 8 quarter-pound burgers in just 60 seconds on a single platen Taylor grill. The technology behind these grills, including platens, programmable gaps, and daily calibration, ensures your food is cooked quickly and consistently every time.


The speed of Taylor grills means less time spent cooking and less labor required, allowing you to serve fresh, made-to-order food quickly, even during peak hours. Plus, Taylor grills are incredibly versatile. They can cook a variety of foods including burgers, chicken, steak, panini sandwiches, vegetables, fish, pancakes, eggs, bacon, and more. You have the option to use the clamshell feature or cook traditionally on a flat top for foods like pancakes and eggs.

There are various models of Taylor grills available, including gas or electric options, 1 to 3 platens, and models with 2 platens and an additional lane for flat top cooking. These grills are user-friendly with programmable menu items and the convenience of starting the cooking process with just a push of a button. The USB ports allow for instant menu updates, making it easy to serve a variety of menu items quickly. This makes Taylor grills perfect for both quick-service and dining restaurants where consistency and efficiency are crucial.
