LCH-MT Series - Moisture-Controlled Low Temp Cook & Hold Ovens
Faster Cooking, Superior Food Texture, and Precision Moisture Control
1. Advanced Moisture-Controlled Cooking
The LCH-MT Series is designed with a three-level controlled moisture system, allowing foodservice operators to heat foods faster than traditional Cook & Hold ovens while maintaining superior food quality, texture, and moisture retention. This innovative system helps prevent over-drying, ensuring that foods stay juicy, flavorful, and ready for service.
2. Seamless Cook & Hold Operation
These ovens automatically transition from cooking to holding mode, eliminating the need for constant monitoring. Operators can cook by time or by probe temperature, ensuring precise doneness while keeping food at optimal serving conditions for extended periods.
3. Programmable Venting for Crisping and Browning
The user-controlled venting system allows excess moisture to be released at specific points in the cooking cycle, enabling natural browning and crisping without requiring additional manual intervention. This makes it ideal for roasting meats, baking, and preparing crispy products while retaining maximum flavor.
4. Built-In HACCP Data Logging for Food Safety Compliance
Each unit includes a USB port for HACCP data logging, allowing operators to download a running 30-day record of cook cycles, product types, and equipment usage. This feature helps maintain food safety compliance and operational consistency with ease.
5. No Vent Hood Required
The LCH-MT Series surpasses EPA 202 & ANSI NFPA96 standards, meaning these ovens do not require a traditional ventilation hood in most installations (local codes may apply). This eliminates costly hood installation and fire suppression system expenses, making it an excellent choice for space-restricted kitchens or facilities without direct ventilation access.
6. Versatile Tray & Pan Configurations
Each model includes fully adjustable and removable tray slides, accommodating a variety of tray and pan sizes, including 12" x 20" pans, 18" x 26" sheet trays, and GN containers. This flexibility allows for a wide range of cooking applications, from slow-roasting to bulk meal preparation.
7. User-Friendly Touchscreen Controls with Programmable Presets
The intuitive touchscreen control panel features 8 programmable recipe presets, allowing operators to store custom cooking cycles for consistent results. Real-time LED temperature displays provide instant visibility, while the internal probe ensures precision cooking without the need for manual adjustments.
8. Automatic Water Fill for Reduced Maintenance
Designed for convenience, the LCH-MT Series includes automatic water-fill functionality, eliminating the need for manual water pan refilling and ensuring consistent moisture levels during cooking and holding.
9. Heavy-Duty Stainless Steel Construction
Built for high-volume commercial kitchens, these ovens feature fully insulated stainless steel construction, welded base frames, and heavy-duty door latches for long-lasting durability. Maintenance-free polyurethane casters allow for smooth transport and maneuverability, making these units ideal for banquet kitchens, catering operations, and institutional foodservice environments.
The LCH-MT Series provides a reliable solution for operators who need controlled moisture cooking, efficient holding, and flexible programming. Designed to enhance food quality while optimizing workflow, these ovens are a valuable addition to banquet kitchens, catering operations, and institutional foodservice environments.
LCH-18-MT - Moisture-Controlled Low Temp Cook & Hold Oven (18 Tray Capacity)
The LCH-18-MT is built for high-volume cook-and-hold applications, offering precise moisture-controlled cooking for up to 18 trays. Its programmable venting and automatic water-fill system optimize food texture and browning, while the hood-free design makes it ideal for any kitchen without dedicated ventilation. Engineered for catering and institutional foodservice, it ensures quality results with minimal supervision.
