Not sure they make one. A charbroiler has a drip pan under the burners and lava rocks for the drippings. The way the stove burners are constructed the drippings would go into the stove and create a hazard. They do make several types of flat griddle for stoves.

check out tri-star, they have a charbroiler same size as two burner stove top for around 400 bucks....... by the time you swap parts and rig it up to be usable you are liable to have that much in a converted stove top

I looked into a countertop model a few years ago for finishing smoked ribs and doing steaks. The lava type were the old style and what a steak house that my boss bought used in the kitchen back in the 70's. Later models used the tubular burners and v channel deflectors minus the lava much like gas BBQ's. My kid attended an event several years ago that the caterers were using a contraption that used infrared heat/propane making for a very compact and effective char broiler that easily hit 800 deegrees. I think we discussed these here and the prices have come down an order of magnitude since. Solaire comes to mind and they seem to be finding Asian knockoffs of these units in stainless for pleasure craft at reasonable prices. For small volume finishing and doing steaks, you might be able to find something suitable without a huge investment at you local boat supply providing you can vent it. Even BK has gone to this format in their tractor units using gas and IR assist.

A TEC will run twice the price of a Solaire but here is a clip to see the general technology in action...
