Why your Star griddle is gas smell
When a Star griddle is gas smell, here's what you'll usually notice: rotten-egg odor near appliance. EMERGENCY — shut off gas, leave the area, call us and 911. On this platform it's most often a cracked burner or manifold. Left unaddressed, the kitchen loses a station it can't work around.
Most likely causes
- A faulty regulator
- A worn supply-line connection
- Failed gas valve seal
- A cracked burner or manifold
Known Star griddle weak points
- griddle thermostat and thermocouple failures causing no or uneven heat
- electric griddle/charbroiler element burnout
- uneven plate heating from failed burners on gas units
- pilot and gas-valve issues on gas charbroilers
Quick check — and when it's not DIY
Before booking a repair, if you smell gas, don't check anything yourself — shut off the gas supply valve if it's safely reachable, open windows, and don't touch switches or open flames. Also, if it's safe to do so from outside, note whether the smell is near the unit only or spreading through the room. Past that point, any further diagnosis — finding the actual leak point — needs a combustible gas detector and licensed training, not a nose and a guess.

OEM parts are widely available through the Middleby/Star network and Parts Town; gas charbroiler repairs need a licensed technician.
