A braising pan, sometimes called a tilting skillet, is like a griddle with high sides and a cover. This versatile unit can roast, fry, braise, boil, simmer, thaw, saute grill, warm, steam, proof, hold, and serve practically any menu item. All models include tilting mechanisms to simplify removal of liquid. Braising pans reduce preparation time, saves energy and increase batch consistency. Models support gas fired or electric versions with manual tilt or electric tilt. Different models can include a stand base, cabinet base, pedestal base, can be wall mounted or counter top mounted.
