The Vulcan VG30 delivers exceptional versatility and performance in one durable, easy-to-use package. This 30-gallon modular gas tilting braising pan is ideal for browning, simmering, braising, sautéing, boiling, steaming, or holding foods at serving temperature—making it a true multi-tasker in any professional kitchen. Designed for precision and longevity, it provides 50% more capacity and faster recovery times than comparable models, helping you keep up with the busiest meal periods.
Built for demanding environments, the VG30 features a stainless steel front, back, sides, and open-base frame with 12-inch legs and adjustable flanged feet for stability and easy cleaning. The front-hinged polished stainless steel pan body includes coved interior corners and embossed gallon markings for quick, accurate portioning. The 9.75-inch deep pan features a full-width 4-inch return flange with a formed pouring lip and a removable strainer to ensure smooth, controlled pouring.
The cooking surface is stainless steel bonded to a heavy-duty steel plate for even heat distribution and reliable performance. A stainless steel, spring-assisted cover includes a wraparound, cool-to-the-touch handle and a condensate lip to help maintain moisture and flavor during cooking. The lid can also be held partially open for vented cooking when needed.
Operation is smooth and safe, with a manually operated tilting mechanism that allows the pan to empty completely in approximately 30 crank revolutions. The anti-jam design and removable handle add to the ease of use. A drop-away food receiving pan support mounts neatly under the pouring lip for efficient transfer of cooked food.
Heating is powered by one 30,000 BTU/hr burner for each 12-inch section of pan width, with electronic ignition for automatic burner lighting and safety shutoff when the pan is tilted more than 5°. Solid-state temperature controls are adjustable from 50°F to 425°F, allowing precise cooking control for a variety of dishes.
The VG30 includes watertight control enclosures for durability and safety in high-moisture environments. It operates on a 120/60/1 power supply with a total draw of 9 amps and features a ¾-inch rear gas connection with an internal combination gas valve and integral regulator.
Certified for safety and sanitation, the Vulcan VG30 is CSA design certified and UL classified to NSF Standard #4. Backed by a one-year limited parts and labour warranty, this gas tilting braising pan is built to perform under pressure—batch after batch, service after service.
