Constructed from weather-resistant materials, the lid protects the griddle surface when stored outdoors and reduces heat loss during cooking so food reaches target temperatures faster. The included analog thermometer lets you monitor lid temperature without lifting the cover, and the front-mount hinge system installs once to free both hands during operation.\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow does the hinged lid improve cooking performance?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe lid creates an enclosed cooking environment that retains radiant and convective heat across the flat top, producing more even results for searing, braising, and roasting.
