Description

Southbend HDC-12 Counterline Radiant Gas Charbroiler – 12"

Compact countertop performance with a big, 40,000 BTU punch

Deliver steak-house flavor from even the smallest cookline. The Southbend HDC-12 combines rugged stainless-steel construction, cast-iron radiants and two high-output burners to give you intense, even heat in a space-saving 12 inch footprint.

Why operators love it

  • 40,000 BTU/hr (two 20,000 BTU burners every 6") for rapid preheat and instant recovery.
  • Heavy cast-iron radiants vaporize drippings for authentic char flavor and reduce flare-ups.
  • Reversible, two-position cooking grids provide narrow or wide branding options.
  • 5" rear & side splash guards, 4" spatula-width front grease trough and a full-width removable crumb tray keep the line clean.
  • Independent burner control valves with standing pilots let you create multiple heat zones.
  • Durable #3-polished stainless front & sides with insulated, double-wall side panels.
  • Field-convertible to lava briquettes using an optional kit (sold separately).
  • 4" adjustable stainless-steel legs for easy leveling on any counter.
  • Certified CSA Star, CSA Flame, cCSAus & NSF for gas safety and sanitation.
