A Quick Way to Heat Up Food On The Go

How can you not be a fan of the microwave oven?  It’s a huge convenience when you are catering events and you just need to heat up something quickly.  Often times you cater events where you don’t have access to any type of cooking equipment or kitchen, and therefore must prepare everything ahead of time.  However most catered meals generally involve some sort of hot food.  You don’t want to serve that hot food cold so you will need some type of portable heating source.  Since you can’t really bring a six burner induction range with you (not exactly travel friendly), one way to work around this dilemma is to bring a compact commercial microwave oven as a source of last minute heating.

The Compact Commercial Microwave Oven from Panasonic has a key touchpad with 10 different programmable memory buttons.  These ten memory pads have the capacity to hold up to 20 different “quick pick” programmable options!  This microwave oven offers 6 different power levels so you can do everything from defrost to cook.  This stainless steel microwave comes with a door handle rather then a button to easily open the see through oven door. Fun fact: the door hinges alone are tested 400,000 times – that’s not a number you joke about!

Best Way to Cope With Your Minimal Oven Space

Have you ever wished that you just had a little more space in your commercial oven?  Well, I sure have, and I’m sure you have at some point too.   Rather then buying a whole new oven, I’ve learned that the best way to solve this problem is to utilize a Commercial Microwave Oven for my countertop that I can use for over flow items or extra large party preparations. 

Although there are a lot of great models out there, my favorite Commercial Microwave Oven is this one from Amana.  Not only is this model great for heating up items quickly, it is also very portable and easy to take with me to events.  It is also perfect for medium level establishments such as convenience stores and vending areas. Free shipping too!

I have this pet peeve where people take food out of the microwave, before the timer is up and neglect to cancel the timer…The six minute dial timer on this model makes it so I don’t have to deal with my slightly neurotic pet peeve (I promise I’m not the only one either and I KNOW you know what I’m talking about)!
