The XLT Radiant Grill excels in delivering uniform results
The XLT Radiant Grill is a cutting-edge solution designed to bring consistency and efficiency to high-volume kitchens. To fully harness the power of this XLT Automated Grilling System, proper processes and preparation are key. In a recent video, Chuck ‘Chef’ Freer, XLT’s resident expert, shares valuable tips on maximizing automation with the XLT Grill.
Consistency Is Key
Chef Freer emphasizes that the foundation of automation success lies in the consistency of the product being fed into the system. The XLT Radiant Grill excels in delivering uniform results, but ensuring that the input remains consistent guarantees the best output every time.
Whether you’re grilling burgers, chicken, or other proteins, maintaining consistent portion sizes, shapes, and preparation methods will streamline the grilling process and enhance product quality.
Mastering Pan Management
One unique feature of the XLT Radiant Grill is it can use various smallware pans, like diamond plate, to get the results you need and simplifies the cleaning process. Instead of scraping a charbroiler, pan management becomes an essential aspect of the workflow.
Chef Freer recommends implementing a three-set system for pans:
- Clean Pans: Always have a clean set of pans ready for use.
- In-Process Pans: These are the pans currently in use on the conveyorized grilling system.
- Dirty Pans: A separate set for used pans waiting to be cleaned.
The type, number, and size of pans you’ll need depend on your kitchen’s volume and specific menu offerings. Adopting this system ensures a seamless workflow and maximizes the efficiency of the XLT Radiant Grill.
Maximizing Throughput with the XLT Automated Grilling System
The XLT Grill’s automation capabilities shine when properly integrated into kitchen operations. Here’s how you can make the most of this system:
- Plan for Volume: Anticipate your busiest times and prepare your pans accordingly.
- Train Your Staff: Ensure your team understands how to manage pans and maintain consistency in the product going into the grill.
- Integrate Efficiently: Use the XLT Radiant Grill alongside an XLT Impingement Oven(s) for a complete, high-efficiency kitchen solution.
