The Alto-Shaam 1200-TH Cook & Hold Oven features two independent compartments in a single footprint, delivering unrivaled cooking and holding capabilities for high-volume kitchens. With fanless Halo Heat® technology, ventless operation, and set-and-forget controls, it maximizes food quality and yields while keeping operating costs under $2 per day.
Key Features:
- Halo Heat® Technology: Unique thermal cabling surrounds the oven cavity with gentle, precise radiant heat for maximum moisture retention, even cooking, and 15–20% less protein shrinkage than conventional cooking.
- Two Independent Compartments: Cook and hold two different products simultaneously — each with up to 8 programmable recipes. Holds 4 full-size hotel pans (2-1/2") or 4 GN 1/1 pans (65mm) per compartment.
- Ventless & Waterless: No hood, plumbing, drains, or filtration required — place it anywhere and eliminate installation costs.
- Labor-Free Overnight Cooking: Reclaim 12–16 hours of nonproductive time with lights-out overnight cooking and holding. Costs less than $2 per day to operate.
- Automatic Mode Switching: Senses internal product temperature or time and automatically converts from cook to hold mode — no babysitting required.
- Natural Meat Tenderization: One hour in the Cook & Hold is equivalent to 1–2 days of dry aging — ideal for less expensive, underutilized cuts.
- Versatile Cooking: Roast, proof, braise, reheat, ferment, sous-vide, and hold — all in one oven with set-and-forget simplicity.
- Effortless Cleaning: No moving parts or added water — simply remove shelves and wipe clean.
- Optional HACCP Data Logger: Automatically tracks food temperature readings and operation modes by date and time — downloadable to a USB flash drive.
A reliable, low-cost cook and hold oven that delivers consistent, high-quality results overnight — with virtually no labor required.
