Rotisserie cooking
provides an even
delivery of heat
to your foods. It
has no equal. The
constant rotation not only cooks foods evenly, it also self
bastes. As juices rise to the surface of the food, they natu-
rally flow around it as it rotates. And, by moving the burner
out from beneath the food, you avoid scorching flare-ups.
Your foods will be more evenly
cooked, more tender and juicier
when slow-roasted on a Lynx’s
rotisserie.
The Lynx rotisserie system consists of four main parts, the
motor, the skewer, the forks and the infrared burner.
The Motor
Install the motor by sliding it into
one of the slots shown here. Use
the top slot for small foods or fast
cooking and the lower slot for
large foods and slower cooking.
Plug the motor power cord into the
motor and into the built-in power
outlet on the rear left panel. Your grill
must be plugged into an AC power
supply for the rotisserie to work.
Place a basting pan in the grill to
prevent food accumulations on the
briquettes and burners. But BE SURE
YOU REMOVE IT before using any of
the other burners.
The location of the
rotisserie burner makes
it more susceptible to
strong wind conditions
(more so than the main
grill burners).
For this reason it features a safety valve that automatically
closes any time the rotisserie burner is not properly lit …
like if it were to extinguish in windy conditions. During
windy conditions, it’s best to keep the lid closed and to
periodically check the burner.
When the rotisserie is not in use the rotisserie motor should
be stored in a cool dry location.
The Skewer & Forks
The rotisserie can handle large food items up to 50 lbs. You
should prepare any item and first mount it on the skewer.
Swing the warming rack up and out of the way. It will rest in
place.
Then mount the skewer on the grill before lighting the rotis-
serie infrared burner. Lighting the burner first could result
in burning your hands while trying to mount the skewer on
the grill.
It’s okay to remove the grill racks and even the briquette
trays to make room for large foods on the skewer.
To load the skewer, slide one of the forks onto the skewer.
Push the skewer through the center of the food, then slide
the second fork onto the skewer. Center the food to be
cooked on the skewer then push the forks firmly together.
Tighten the thumb screws (use pliers if necessary). You
should wrap any loose, dangling pieces of food (like wings)
with butcher’s string (never use nylon or plastic string).
With the food secured to the skewer slowly roll the skewer
in the palms of your hands to check for balance. It should
rotate smoothly. If you find it has a heavy side, adjust where
the skewer pierces the meat. An unbalanced skewer will
cause uneven rotation and uneven cooking. It’s normal for
the skewer to flex with large foods.
