The Alto-Shaam 500-TH Cook & Hold Oven is the most compact model in the lineup — designed for under-counter placement and smaller kitchen spaces without compromising on performance. With fanless Halo Heat® technology and set-and-forget controls, it delivers consistent, high-quality results overnight for less than $2 a 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.
- Under-Counter Design: Compact footprint fits under counters or stacks with other equipment for maximum kitchen flexibility in tight spaces.
- 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 with set-and-forget simplicity and up to 8 programmable recipes.
- 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.
