Southbend Ultimate 48" Restaurant Range – Split Top w/ 36" Griddle & Convection Oven

Model 448 (Star/Sauté + Non-Clog Burners, Left-Side Griddle)

The power, flexibility, and rugged construction chefs expect from the Southbend Ultimate Series – now in a space-saving 48" footprint that pairs open-top precision with a full-width griddle and a high-performance convection oven. Built for busy commercial kitchens that refuse to compromise.

Why This Range Rocks

  • 162,000 BTU total output – instant recovery even during peak service.
  • Split burner layout: one 33 K BTU Star/Sauté burner in front for fast, even heat & one 33 K BTU Non-Clog burner at the rear for stock pots.
  • Heavy 36" left-side griddle • ½" polished steel plate with raised sides for effortless searing, browning, and smash burgers.
  • 32 K BTU convection oven with 3 racks / 5 positions – fan-circulated heat eliminates hot spots from 175 °F – 550 °F.
  • Right-side stainless cabinet base keeps sheet pans, sauté pans, or smallwares within arm’s reach (door available at no charge).
  • 22-½" flue riser with integrated shelf adds convenient plating or utensil space.
  • Battery spark ignition on oven – no electrical hookup required for open burners.
  • Front-mounted manual gas shut-off simplifies daily start-up and maintenance.
  • All-stainless front, sides, rail & shelf plus 6" adjustable legs for years of corrosion-resistant service.
  • Certified cCSAus, CSA Flame, CSA Star & NSF – ready for inspection right out of the crate.
