Some elements of the plancha trolley are essential to ensure the functionality and longevity of your equipment.
First selection criterion: a plancha trolley that is easy to handle.
The ultimate in open-air cooking, the plancha is welcome anywhere outdoors: by the pool, at the bottom of the garden, on the terrace… To cook outdoors without limits, the plancha should be mounted on a virtually all-terrain trolley of French manufacture. Good wheels, like lawnmower wheels, are essential. Some plancha trolleys are fitted with wheels and adjustable feet for better stability. Larger models such as the CHPS 900 stainless steel and wood trolley come with four wheels as standard to make it easier to move the relatively heavy griddle plate with its large cooking surface. A handle on the side makes it easier to guide and manoeuvre the trolley.
A solid and functional base.
The frame of the wheel-mounted trolley must be strong enough to bear the weight of the plancha. To save space and gain functionality, it is preferable to choose a plancha trolley with a usable storage area in the base. The lower part of the trolley thus offers storage possibilities such as: housing the gas bottle of a gas plancha, or storing everything you need for successful grilling.
A cover should protect the trolley and the plancha.
Just like garden furniture, when not in use for a prolonged period, it is recommended to store the plancha and its trolley in a garden shed to protect them from the weather. By covering the whole unit with an F07023 protective cover, the cooking equipment is better protected from damp. This cover also fits the CHPS 1 serving cart with the plancha placed on the upper shelf.
Equip your plancha trolley like a barbecue!
The stainless steel panelling creates a discreet storage space.
The base of plancha trolleys is often completely open. Stainless steel panelling creates a storage space in the base of the trolley. Roller Grill has created stainless steel panelling kits HB53175, HB53176 and HB53177 for its plancha trolleys, according to the size of the Roller Grill trolley. The semi-enclosed base thus provides a store for the gas bottle of a gas plancha. In the case of an electric plancha, this storage space is dedicated to storing everything you need for plancha cooking. A 53198 stainless steel bottle holder and a 53192SE stainless steel bin can be hung on this panelling on either side of the trolley.
Don’t forget the condiment shelf!
All plancha cooking calls for herbes de Provence, seasonings and condiments. The 53190SE or 53191SE condiment shelf is the storage solution for keeping your spices within easy reach and for resting a spatula. This stainless steel shelf features a kitchen roll holder. It hooks onto the trolley uprights in one simple movement. A true self-sufficient outdoor kitchen!
With the hinged lid, your trolley has everything a barbecue has!
For grilling enthusiasts still sceptical about the versatility of the plancha and its trolley, the hinged lid should win them over. The 53196SE or 53197SE hinged lid attaches to the Roller Grill plancha built into the trolley. With the trolley’s side shelves, the utensil rail and this fold-down cooking lid, your plancha looks for all the world like a barbecue: substantial, mobile, functional, self-sufficient and… with healthy cooking on top!
