Comstock Castle CCVB-3 21 Inch Gas Vertical Broiler Gyro Shawarma 3 Infrared Burners 28,500 BTU 65 lb Capacity 120V Motor
Comstock Castle CCVB-3 — Three-Burner Gas Vertical Broiler, 28,500 BTU
The Comstock Castle CCVB-3 is the mid-size model in the CCVB vertical broiler series, built for gyro, shawarma, doner kebab, and al pastor programs that need steady output without a full-height machine. Three independently controlled infrared burners, each rated at 9,500 BTU on natural gas (8,000 BTU on propane), deliver 28,500 BTU of radiant heat across a 21" spit that carries up to 65 lbs of stacked meat. A heavy-duty 120 V rotisserie motor turns at 3.5 RPM for even browning, brass gas valves with cool-touch knobs adjust each burner zone, and a continuous pilot lights the burners instantly. Stainless steel framing, side heat shields, an adjustable spit-to-burner distance, and a drippings collector keep the unit clean and the cook line cooler, and an LP conversion kit and meat shovel are included in the carton.
Key Features of the CCVB-3
The CCVB series ranges from two to five burners on the same 23" x 21" footprint; the CCVB-3 adds a third burner zone and 21" of spit height for restaurants that turn a cone every service.
Three 9,500 BTU Infrared Burners
Infrared burners radiate heat directly into the meat surface rather than heating the air, searing the outer layer for shaving while the interior stays moist; each burner delivers 9,500 BTU on natural gas or 8,000 BTU on propane.
Independent Brass Valve Controls
Durable brass gas valves let the cook run the top, middle, and bottom burners at different settings as the cone shrinks, and the continuous pilot relights instantly after a burner is turned down.
3.5 RPM Heavy-Duty Motor
The 120 V rotisserie motor turns the 65 lb load at a constant 3.5 revolutions per minute for even color on every side, and stub footers let air pass underneath for cooler operation and longer motor life.
Adjustable Spit Distance
The spit position adjusts relative to the burners, so a full 65 lb cone can start farther out and move closer to the flame as the meat is carved down through the shift.
Heat Shields & Drippings Collector
Side heat shields hold the radiant heat on the meat and protect adjacent equipment, while the drippings collector catches rendered fat for a quick end-of-day wipe-down.
Stainless Frame, ETL Certified
Corrosion-resistant stainless steel framing carries ETL design certification and ETL Sanitation certification to ANSI/NSF 4, and the 23" x 21" footprint needs only 6" of clearance from combustibles.
Installation note: Optimal supply pressure is 4" WC for natural gas and 10" WC for propane; the 1/2" rear gas connection ships with a 3/4" adapter, and an LP conversion kit is included. The rotisserie motor needs a grounded 120 V, 60 Hz receptacle for its NEMA 5-15 plug on a 5-foot cord. Comstock Castle requires installation and pressure testing by a licensed gas technician for the warranty to remain valid; keep 6" clearance from combustible surfaces and install under a commercial exhaust hood.
Ideal Applications
A three-burner vertical broiler suits operations that carve a cone continuously through lunch and dinner but do not need the 100 lb capacity of a four-burner machine.
