Commercial Ovens Explained By Style

By Riley Powers

Every restaurant in existence uses an oven, and all but the smallest ones need an effective commercial oven in their kitchens. New restaurant owners may be overwhelmed with the wide variety of potential choices, and I'd like to help inform you of a few potential possibilities.

Choosing the right type of oven doesn't exactly depend on just one factor. Certain determinations should be made as a means of arriving at that decision. For example, how many meals do you need to prepare per day, and how diverse is the menu at your restaurant?

Amongst the most popular breeds of this oven style is the convection oven. The best quality of this kind of cooking appliance is the fact that a fan within the oven blows the hot air around the inside of the oven, letting the heat be distributed evenly to the rest of the food.

This is particularly useful for foods that may have been cold or even frozen before being heated. As you may well know, frozen preparations are often spotty once they've been done with heating.

Yet another very popular oven style is the conveyor oven. Who will typically use ovens like these? They're very popular in high volume restaurants that need to prepare many meals at once. In heating food in this manner, you won't need to constantly open and close your oven as you need to serve each meal.

Of course, another type of extremely common commercial oven used in restaurants is a pizza oven, which has the capacity to heat foods really quickly at extremely high temperatures. As a result, you'll see other foods being heated with this oven from time to time.

There are so many different styles of oven you can go with, and there are even more that I haven't mentioned here. At the end of the day, you'll want something that heats your food quickly and reliably, and a high quality unit of any sort should do that. Simply ask yourself which style works best for your needs.

At this point, you should have a basic understanding as to the different oven styles. It's your job to find the best deal, and you can do that by rummaging through online searches, classified ads, and local stores. - 30289
