The main brass burners and
the Prosear™ 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
dI reCt heat
d irect heat cooking occurs when foods are placed directly over the heat source. This form of heat is known as “radiant” heat because the heat radiates directly from the source to the food.
d irect heat is a must when you want to sear the outside of your food to seal in flavor. Lynx main brass burners provide the heat necessary to sear foods and seal in flavor.
I ndI reCt heat
Indirect heat cooking occurs when the food is not close to the heat source. h eat reaches the food via air movement within the cooking area. This form of heat is known as “con- vection” heat.
i ndirect, 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 ”.
od closed as much as possible during 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.
