Maryland and Virginia foodservice operators know that their guests care about results and RATIONAL iCombi and iVario cooking equipment provide just that. No matter how you want your finished product to look and taste, one press of the button replaces temperature adjustments, pan rotations, and frequent monitoring. For operators, that means consistent quality, more time for kitchen staff, and happy guests.
These intelligent cooking solutions grill, roast, bake, fry, and steam. But that’s not all that's possible. Let’s examine five surprising things that RATIONAL intelligent cooking equipment can do for your commercial kitchen.

OVERNIGHT COOKING
Rest easy at night knowing you’ll walk into your commercial kitchen with perfectly roasted meat the next morning. Both the iCombi Pro and iVario Pro recognize the size of the meat to be roasted, braised, boiled, and cooks it to its exact specifications. With the ability to cook different types of meat all in one cycle, you can accomplish an entire day’s cooking load overnight, saving the entire kitchen staff time. From roasting to braising, your low-temp cooking process can run efficiently even when the lights go out.
SOUS VIDE
The gentle cooking and precise temperature holding through the sous vide option of RATIONAL'S iVario Pro maintains flavors, colors, and vitamins. This is ideal for kitchens with low-calorie or special-diet meals on the menu, who can prepare the right amount of food, whenever it’s needed, without overproduction and food waste.
BREAKFAST
Hotels can fill up their entire breakfast buffet in just minutes. With the ability to cook scrambled eggs, crispy bacon, and fluffy croissants all in one oven using mixed loads, guests will have a constantly replenished buffet whether they’re early risers or late bloomers. Operators can go from using multiple pieces of foodservice equipment to just one combi oven for an entire breakfast menu.
SMOKING
Any foodservice operator with a RATIONAL can create smoked dishes without having to purchase a smoking cabinet. Expand your menu with smoked meats by adding the VarioSmoker accessory designed to smoke foods in a quick and cost-efficient manner.
FINISHING®
By preparing à la carte dishes in advance, chilling them until it’s time to serve, and finishing with the RATIONAL iCombi Pro, operators will save on time, reduce staff expenses, and still maintain perfect quality in each dish. The iCombi intelligently detects the climate that will keep condensation and evaporation in perfect balance. This forms a protective film of microscopic water droplets over the food, protecting it from drying out, losing nutrients, and reducing tenderness.
No matter the application, intelligent cooking equipment can benefit your commercial kitchen. Experience the difference at a local live RATIONAL cooking event. Find upcoming dates and sign up below.
