Restaurant kitchens depend on efficiency. Every minute saved and every cost reduced can make a major difference in profitability. That’s why many operators are turning to the Taylor two sided grill to improve kitchen performance.


Unlike traditional flat-top grills, the Taylor commercial grill cooks food from both sides at the same time. This double sided electric grill dramatically reduces cook times while delivering consistent food quality.


For restaurants looking to upgrade their commercial kitchen equipment, the Taylor Crown Series grill is designed to help food service operations lower labor costs, reduce energy usage, and improve service speed.


Faster Cooking with a Taylor Two-Sided Grill

One of the biggest advantages of the Taylor Double Sided Grill is speed. Because the upper and lower cooking surface plates cook food simultaneously, menu items cook much faster than they would on a traditional flat-top grill.


Typical cooking comparisons include:

Hamburgers (6oz)

Flat-top grill: 6 minutes 33 seconds

Taylor Double Sided Burger Grill: 1 minute 40 seconds (75% faster)


Chicken Breasts

Flat-top grill: 12 minutes 25 seconds

Taylor commercial grill: 2 minutes 30 seconds (79% faster)


Bacon

Flat-top grill: 6 minutes 48 seconds

Taylor clamshell grill: 1 minute 30 seconds (78% faster)


Turkey Burgers

Flat-top grill: 7 minutes 8 seconds

Taylor double sided grill: 2 minutes 40 seconds (63% faster)


For busy restaurants and food service kitchens, faster cooking means quicker ticket times, higher production capacity, and improved customer satisfaction.


Lower Energy Costs with Advanced Grill Technology

Energy efficiency is another reason many restaurants choose Taylor grills. Traditional grills often require long preheat times and can waste energy due to uneven heating across the cooking surface.


The Taylor double sided electric grill uses advanced heating technology to maintain consistent temperatures while reducing energy consumption.


Key benefits include:

Quick Preheat

Most flat-top grills require 10–15 minutes to preheat, while a Taylor two sided grill typically reaches cooking temperature in under five minutes.


Even Heat Distribution

Consistent heat across the grill plates ensures reliable cooking results while minimizing wasted energy.


Standby Energy Mode

When the grill is not actively cooking, the system automatically shifts into an energy-saving mode to reduce power usage.


Over time, these efficiencies can lead to meaningful savings on utility bills for restaurants and food service operations.


Improve Kitchen Productivity and Labor Efficiency

The Taylor Double Sided Grill helps streamline kitchen workflows and reduce labor demands. Restaurants using Taylor Crown Series grills often report faster production and more consistent cooking.


Because the Taylor company grill uses programmable cooking settings, staff can prepare menu items using simple push-button controls rather than manual timing.


Benefits include:

  • Average cook time reductions of up to 77%

  • Estimated 6–10 labor hours saved per day in busy kitchens

  • Simplified staff training

  • Consistent food quality across shifts


For many operators, this makes the Taylor Double Sided Grill one of the best commercial grill options available for high-volume restaurant environments.


Reduce Food Waste and Improve Product Quality

Food waste can quickly impact restaurant profitability. The Taylor Double Sided Grill helps reduce waste while improving consistency.


The Taylor clamshell grill applies even pressure and heat across the cooking surface, ensuring reliable cooking results and preventing overcooking or undercooking.


Restaurants benefit from:

  • Better portion consistency

  • Reduced moisture loss and shrinkage

  • Improved food quality and yields


Because the grill cooks food faster, operators can rely more on fresh ingredients rather than pre-cooked products.


Long-Term Value of a Taylor Grill

Some operators initially focus on the Taylor grill price, but the long-term savings often outweigh the upfront investment. Reduced labor costs, lower energy consumption, faster service, and less food waste can quickly deliver a strong return on investment.


Built for demanding food service environments, Taylor grills are designed for durability and consistent performance across a wide range of menu items.


Upgrade Your Kitchen with Taylor Grills

The Taylor Double Sided Grill helps restaurants cook faster, operate more efficiently, and deliver consistent food quality. From burgers and chicken to breakfast sandwiches and paninis, this versatile double sided burger grill can support a wide variety of menu items.
