PRE-HEATING
Pre-heating your grill every time you use it is extremely
important. Pre-heating allows the briquettes to properly
heat up, providing more even and more consistent cooking
results.
Pre-heat your grill by igniting all main burners, including the
ProSear™ 2 burner, and setting them to “HI”.
Then close the hood and allow the grill to heat for 10 to
15 minutes. Once you’ve reached your desired pre-heat
temperature, turn off the burners that you won’t be using to
cook your food.
TYPES OF COOKING
The main brass burners and the ProSear™ 2 burner in your
Lynx grill are capable of creating a range of heat intensities.
By varying the heat output, the number of burners used
and the position of the hood, you can create either direct
or indirect heat or a combination of both and develop a
wide variety of succulent recipes. There are two basic types
of grilling in an outdoor grill... Direct Heat and Indirect Heat
Direct Heat
Direct heat cooking occurs when foods are placed directly
over the heat source. This form of heat is known as “radi-
ant” heat because the heat radiates directly from the source
to the food.
Direct heat is a must when you want to sear the outside of
your food to seal in flavor. Lynx ProSear™ 2 Burners pro-
vide the heat necessary to sear foods and seal in flavor.
Indirect Heat
Indirect heat cooking occurs when the food is not close to
the heat source. Heat reaches the food via air movement
within the cooking area. This form of heat is known as “con-
vection” heat.
Indirect, or “convection” cooking is achieved by placing
the food on one side of the grill and igniting burners on the
other side. You leave the burner below the food “OFF”.
You should keep the hood closed as much as possible dur-
ing this type of cooking to maintain even heat around the
food. You regulate the heat by adjusting the burner, using
the hood thermometer to monitor the temperature.
DO NOT LEAVE THE GRILL UNATTENDED DUR-
ING THE PRE-HEAT CYCLE OR AT ANY TIME
WHILE THE GRILL IS IN USE.
PRE-HEATING FOR MORE THAN 15 MINUTES
MAY OVERHEAT THE GRILL, CAUSING DAM-
AGE TO THE GRILL.
