The Miraclean

Griddle can be kept in

perfect condition by using a razor
blade griddle scraper to remove the
film that is deposited from the products
that have been previously cooked.
Eggs, being cooked at a lower
temperature, require substantially no
scraping; but meat and meat products
cooked at a higher temperature, do
require scraping. Pancakes or wheat
cakes which are cooked at a much
higher temperature, do not require that

the Griddle be scraped. It is merely brushed clean with
the spatula.

The important thing about the satisfactory use of the
Miraclean

Griddle is to understand its rapid heat

transfer at low temperatures, and to understand how to
maintain the Griddle plate clean and shiny at all times.

If an accumulation builds up on the Miraclean

Griddle,

it is necessary only to wash it with a palmetto pot brush
and cold water. As you pour water on the Griddle and

wash the Griddle with a palmetto brush, it will come
clean and beautiful in but a few seconds. A scraper is
used to completely remove any deposit left from
previous products on the Griddle surface. Polish the
Griddle so it looks new using KEATING Klenzer and a
dry cloth. (See Cleaning Instructions)

COOKING PROCEDURES

MIRACLEAN

Griddles are designed to provide

maximum production efficiency and deliver high quality
food products. Follow cooking procedures below.

COOKING INSTRUCTIONS

Set the thermostat to the desired temperature and
wait ten minutes for preheat. The operating
temperature should be from 10° F to 25° F lower
than conventional griddles – at least start at lower
temperatures. You may be able to work the
temperature up as you become accustomed to the
more rapid cooking of the Miraclean

Griddle.

Cook as usual, but after each batch scrape the
griddle in the work area completely clean, using
the 4" wide scraper supplied by Keating. (This may
be the only cleaning you will ever need.)

HIGH TEMPERATURE – Since the Miraclean

Griddle

does not radiate heat (for all practical purposes)
sometimes people turn the griddle all the way up to
400°F. Eggs, bacon, hash browns and hamburgers will
not cook on a very hot griddle. Use low temperatures
and work your way up to the proper temperature.

BEST COOKING AREAS ON THE

MIRACLEAN

GRIDDLE

To use the best cooking areas, locate the inverted “V’s”
on the front of the griddle cooking plate. Depending on
your model you may have from one to six thermostats.
The “V’s” indicate where the thermostat sensing bulbs
are located below the plate.
If you cook over the sensing bulb only you are drawing
heat from that section; the thermostat calls for heat but
since it has not dissipated in the other areas of the
surface, you can overheat the griddle plate.
