Ovens & Banquet Cooking Systems » When You're Hot, You're Hot!

Alto-Shaam Ovens & Banquet Cooking Systems According to Ron Ross, Executive Chef at the Borgata Hotel Casino & Spa in Atlantic City, Alto-Shaam® ovens are hot—very hot. “I used them exclusively for banquet and buffet operations when I was at the Beau Rivage in Biloxi, Mississippi,” he says. From cooking and holding ovens to combitherms to holding cabinets, to smokers, Ross rattles off a list of the Alto-Shaam products he uses.

“I particularly like the holding cabinet with the cutting board on top,” he says. “We have four of them just in the new lounges we opened last August for high-roller patrons. The meat is accessible and there’s good heat distribution inside the cabinet. It’s a nice, even product. One side doesn’t overcook or dry out the meat.”

Alto-Shaam’s combitherm—a combination oven and steamer—offers flexibility in a small footprint says Ross. “It’s efficient and convenient for the cook at the work station. The combitherm has very efficient heat distribution, and it recovers heat very quickly. Competitors keep calling, but I’m sticking with Alto-Shaam. Their technology is one step above everyone else’s. And really trouble-free maintenance. Alto- Shaam ovens are easy to work with—they really never break down at all.”—ADK
