Large-scale paella cooking made lighter
The GrillSymbol Paella Cooking Set PRO-960 Light is designed for high-volume outdoor cooking while remaining surprisingly easy to transport and set up. Featuring a 96 cm diameter steel pan made from 3 mm steel and a powerful 21 kW gas burner, this set is ideal for caterers, festivals, street food events, and large private gatherings.
Despite its near one-metre diameter, the pan weighs only 19 kg, making it the lightest large-capacity paella solution in the GrillSymbol PRO range.
Built for caterers and large crowds
The PRO-960 Light is widely used by professional caterers across Finland, Scandinavia, England, and the Baltics. With a capacity of 50–80 portions (50 litres), it allows hundreds of servings to be prepared quickly and consistently.
Its 5 cm high rim makes it suitable not only for frying but also for stewing and steaming under a lid, offering far more versatility than low-rimmed paella pans.
Powerful gas burner with triple windshield
The included 21 kW, 3-ring gas burner delivers strong, evenly distributed heat across the full pan surface. Combined with the triple windshield, the system ensures:
-
Reliable performance in windy outdoor conditions
-
Heat directed straight to the pan
-
Reduced gas consumption
-
Stable flame that does not blow out easily
This makes the PRO-960 Light a dependable choice for outdoor events and mobile catering.

The PRO-960 Light allows you to cook a wide range of dishes using raw or pre-cooked ingredients, including:
- Traditional paella
