Professional Lynx 42" Overview
Bring professional-grade performance to your backyard with the Lynx 42" Built-In Grill, expertly crafted with innovative features to deliver versatility, control, and exceptional results every time you fire it up. The quality of craftsmanship starts from the outside. Designed with a polished high quality and weather resistant 304 stainless steel body that is seamlessly welded, to eliminate gaps where grease and moisture can collect. Lynx enhances your cooking experience with the addition of a fluid rotation handle and Lynx hood assist, making lifting the heavy grill hood effortless. The grill hood is also built with a patented heat stabilizing design that deflects wind along the back of the hood, so you don't have to worry when you're cooking in windy conditions.
Hybrid Burner Configuration
The powerful hybrid burner configuration in this grill features two ceramic burners and one infrared Trident burner, allowing you to sear, roast, and grill with unmatched precision.
- 2 Cast ceramic burners: 25,000 BTUs each (50,000 BTUs total)
- 1 Infrared Trident Burner: 23,000 BTUs
- Rear rotisserie burner: 14,000 BTUs
- Total grill BTUs: 87,000 BTUs
The two high-performance ceramic burners, made of cordierite ceramic, are engineered to withstand extreme temperatures and provide consistent and even heat across the heavy duty 304 stainless steel cooking grates. Unlike metal burners that corrode over time, ceramic burners are rustproof and capable of self-cleaning at high temperatures.
Trident Infrared Technology
Unique to Lynx grills, the trident infrared burner delivers intense direct heat and has a variable temperature control ranging from 300° to 1000°F. Not only can you reach high temperatures for searing capabilities that you find in top restaurant kitchens, but you can also reach low temperatures to cook more delicate foods. The infrared technology is designed to provide intensive and rapid heat to ensure consistent, even heat distribution, delivering remarkable results every time you grill.
The ceramic radiant briquettes that sit above the ceramic burners help reduce flare ups, provide even and consistent heat distribution and enhances the flavor of your food by catching any juices that drop from your food when your cooking, which then vaporize and are reabsorbed by the food.

Maintenance & Performance FAQ
1. What maintenance is required for ceramic burners and briquettes?
The ceramic burners in Lynx grills are low-maintenance because of their self-cleaning properties at high temperatures. However, they are fragile and should be handled carefully during cleaning or replacement. We recommend regularly inspecting for cracks and gently cleaning to help them last longer. Ceramic briquettes should be cleaned routinely, brushing off food and debris after every cook. It is also important to periodically inspect your briquettes and replace them if they show significant signs of cracks, wear or damage.
2. What is the difference between the Trident and Ceramic burner?
The Infrared trident burner offers intense variable heat, giving you the ability to reach high temperatures for searing, but also the ability to reach lower temperatures cook more delicate items. The ceramic burner provides consistent and powerful heat and allows for even heat distribution without hotspots. When cooking, the trident burner will help you to get a fast and powerful sear if you're wanting a nice caramelized crust and the ceramic burner offers lower heat cooking ideal for indirect grilling, and cooking more delicate foods like seafood or veggies.
3. How does the Trident burner improve cooking performance?
The infrared trident burner featured in this grill offers a unique way of cooking and completely changes the cooking experience. The use of all infrared allows you to reach extremely high temperatures, allowing you to achieve a restaurant grade sear, but what makes these burners unique is the ability to reach low temperatures as well. The infrared Trident burners provide more efficient heat, even heat distribution and ensures high heat, taking your food from simmer to sear in seconds.
4. Is the L42TR a good choice for someone buying their first Lynx grill?
Yes. The combination of ceramic and Trident burners gives homeowners the flexibility to cook everything from steaks and burgers to seafood and vegetables, making it one of the most versatile configurations in the Lynx Professional lineup.
5. Can I use the Trident burner for everyday grilling?
Yes. Unlike many infrared burners designed primarily for searing, the Trident burner offers variable temperature control from approximately 300°F to 1000°F, making it suitable for both everyday cooking and high-heat searing.
6. Who should choose the L42ATR instead?
The L42ATR is ideal for homeowners who prefer cooking entirely with infrared heat and want maximum searing capability across the entire cooking surface.
7. Should I choose the 36" or 42" Lynx grill?
The L36TR Lynx is often the most popular size because it fits a wider range of outdoor kitchens. The 42" model is ideal for homeowners who regularly cook for larger groups and want additional cooking space.
