Going to be doing wings for the 1st time on my Bull this Friday. What is this 0-400 method I keep hearing about. Pro’s, Con’s and tips appreciated

Not exactly. Grill starts out being off = 0 and heats to 400. Put the wings on before starting grill. Just looking for pointers because I don’t want to keep opening the lid to keep checkingNot to split hairs but aren't you going to start from whatever ambient temp is?
Actually, @ol' stonebreaker has a point. The grill starts heating at the ambient temp of the grill, not at 0. So if you are firing up your grill in Fairbanks, AK in January (sub-zero) or in Phoenix, AZ in July (+100) there can be a huge difference in how long it will take the grill to go from start button on to 400*.Not exactly.

So that would be no?Actually, @ol' stonebreaker has a point. The grill starts heating at the ambient temp of the grill, not at 0.

No, just saying that 0-400 is situational. Someone posted here a week or two ago about 0-400, but the forum doesn’t accept that as a search term. The concept as I vaguely understand it is to put the wings on a cold grill, turn it on to 400*, flip the wings after 30 minutes, and cook them until ? (as I don’t know if that means) until the grill reaches 400* or until the wings are done. I’m just saying, as I expect that @ol' stonebreaker was alluding to, is that the time the wings are actually cooking on the grill at 0-400 can vary greatly depending on what the starting point is. I’m genuinely interested in learning more on how well it works.So that would be no?
Also warning to make sure you don’t start a grease fire and your drip pan or foil is clean!Yeah, I’ve only tried wings during the colder months, and I preheat to 180 for smoke, then after putting in the wings, 235F, and after about 2hrs, crank it to 400 for about 35min and the crispiest wings I’ve ever had! Also important to pat down your wings dry with a paper towel before applying seasoning.
