Lynx Professional Grills Offer the Ultimate in Luxury Outdoor Kitchen Products

January 2005 – With families spending more time at home, outdoor grilling is no longer just another cooking option, but rather a ‘lifestyle’ that has spawned a ‘grill envy’ mentality. Today, outdoor grilling enthusiasts want fully-functional outdoor kitchen products that offer as much style, performance and convenience as indoor kitchens and provide the durability and performance necessary for grilling and entertaining guests all year round. To satisfy the needs of today’s grill savvy consumers, Lynx Professional Grills, the leading manufacturer of superior-quality, high-performance stainless steel outdoor kitchen products, is raising the luxury lifestyle bar with their full line of high-performance stainless steel built-in and freestanding grills and accessories that significantly enhance the outdoor cooking experience.

Developed in the spirit of commercial restaurant technology, Lynx outdoor kitchen products embrace American made craftsmanship, exquisite design, and optimum functionality. “Our grills have been hailed by industry professionals as the Rolls Royce of Grills,” says Lynx Marketing Manager, Brian Eskew. “Not only are they extremely attractive, they are built to endure the toughest conditions including harsh outdoor weather elements and extreme heat. Therefore, it’s critical that our products are solidly constructed with the very finest materials. Lynx is a company that specializes in innovative product design and uses only the most durable materials and unparalleled welded construction to provide the style, performance, durability and longevity consumers expect.”

To extend the grill’s life expectancy, Lynx uses a heli-arc welded construction process in the main body of the grill as opposed to mechanical fasteners such as rivets, nuts, bolts or screws which can corrode or work loose over time. The heli-arc welded construction forms a single integral body that adds stability and strength while eliminating open seams where grease and moisture can accumulate. In addition, Lynx uses 304 series 18-gauge stainless steel that is used throughout the commercial industry. 304 stainless steel has a very high nickel composition that makes it less corrosive than other grades of stainless steel.

EXCLUSIVE RED BRASS BURNERS
When cooking outdoors, red brass is an excellent conduit and because it is stronger and more durable than other kinds of brass, it can endure extreme heat. Utilizing this advantage, Lynx Red Brass Burners are H-shaped to ensure even heat distribution with four rows of flame producing 25,000 BTU’s per burner. In addition, Lynx Red Brass Burners feature a lifetime warranty.

PRO-SEAR INFRARED BURNERS WITH “TOTAL TEMPERATURE CONTROL”
Lynx Professional Grills is responding to the growing popularity of infrared grilling by offering a new feature that allows consumers to have a ProSear Infrared Burner in place of one of the red brass burners in its 30”, 42” and 54” Professional Grills. The company is also introducing the new ProSear Grill Extender that can be mounted to any freestanding grill or built-in to an outdoor island to expand the cooking surface beyond the traditional grilling space and provide a dedicated searing station.

“Unlike most infrared burners that only produce extreme high heat, our more versatile ProSear Burners have a multi-position valve, allowing for total control over the infrared heat output,” says Lynx President, Michael Edwards. “This exclusive feature helps eliminate overcooking with infrared by providing consumers with the ability to set cooking temperatures at the high intensity heat needed for searing steaks, and the lower, more gentle temperatures needed when cooking fish and poultry.“

For infrared devotees, Lynx is also introducing the 30” ProSear Pod for built-in applications. The new Pod is an individual unit that provides an ideal infrared searing zone in any outdoor kitchen.

SIDE BURNER SYSTEMS
Lynx’s modular built-in or cart-mounted side burners can be easily integrated into any outdoor kitchen for the added convenience of traditional range top cooking right at your grill. The cart-mounted models are available in single and double burner configurations and feature a front profile to match the grill. The built-in models are also available in single and double burner configurations and conveniently slide into any outdoor island. Featuring 15,000 BTU, sealed brass burners and a sealed cooking surface, the high performance Lynx side burners are easy to clean. Like all other Lynx outdoor kitchen products, the side burners are made of 304 stainless steel and feature all welded construction and polished highlights.

DOUBLE SIDE BURNERS with an integrated prep center are also available for Lynx built-in systems. These two side-by-side 15,000 BTU sealed brass burners incorporate a maple cutting board for preparing the ingredients for side dishes and a utility storage drawer for conveniently storing condiments and utensils.

ROTISSERIE SYSTEM
Using a dedicated ceramic infrared burner, Lynx Rotisserie Systems produce intense heat to sear-in natural juices and flavor. Rotisserie Systems are available with all Lynx Professional Grills and features a low voltage 3-speed DC motor and a stainless steel spit rod with two positions. Its compact size also allows it to be conveniently stored away when not in use.

WARMING DRAWERS
Also new for 2005 is the Lynx 30” Stainless Steel Outdoor Warming Drawer designed to keep finished foods warm. With temperatures ranging from 60°F to 220°F as well as Moist and Crisp settings, the Warming Drawer keeps almost every type of food warm for hours. Two removable steam pans, lids and steam racks are also included. A concealed heating element allows using the warming drawer as a robe or towel warmer and an “On” indicator light reminds you when the warming drawer is in operation.

A 42” CONVENIENCE CENTER with warming drawer, storage drawer and LP tank storage is yet another new Lynx accessory. Made of heavy-duty stainless steel construction, this amazing outdoor convenience center offers the same features and benefits as the 30” Warming Drawer plus a utility storage drawer for storing oversized grill tools, towels and condiments. A convenient cabinet for an LP tank is also included along with a fully extendable sliding tray for easily accessing the LP tank.

COCKTAIL STATION
What outdoor kitchen would be complete without a fully functional cocktail station - the ultimate accessory for entertaining guests outdoors before or after the meal? The Lynx 30” stainless steel CocktailPro, is available in both built-in and freestanding models and features an insulated ice bin, built-in storage shelves, chilled bottle boots, front bottle rail, a drain board and a sink with water filtration system, and a built-in bottle opener with cap catch and towel rack.

The following accessories will also be available in 2005:
