If smoke flavor is desired, place a tennis ball sized chunk directly over Vortex onto grill grate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis method allows the chicken around the perimeter can get fried-like skin without getting the burn marks that happen while grilling wings directly. The heat increases enough to crisp skin without any direct flame. This is not unlike setting your fire off to one side of your kettle, the only difference with the Vortex would be an even amount of heat for every piece around the perimeter as opposed to the ones closest to the fire. No need for rotating or extra flipping.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4 class=\"font-accent text-danger\"\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003ch4 class=\"font-accent text-danger\"\u003eDIRECT\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003ch4 class=\"font-accent text-primary\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eHigh Heat Searing\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"lead\"\u003eThis is your searing option.

It will have a very nice sear across the whole steak, not just where the grate marks are happening. The Maillard Reaction is able to occur across surface area of the whole steak\/chop rather than just where the grate is touching the meat.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOnce seared on both sides.
