Why do black people put aluminum foil on their BBQ grill?

[skeetsinternal]

How you expect to get them grill lines on the steak and hotdogs ? If you using foil on the grill you basically got a hotplate..so whats the point?

I don't know why people do that shyt either. When I BBQ, I gotta have that flavor from the coals, the apple smoked wood chips to be in the food and of course the stripes

helps to keep the grill clean
more so used in parks/public grills
or when cooking corn & shyt

Spoiler

only black people do this?

I just asked a friend, and they said:

So you don't have to clean the grill all the way, I guess.

Keeps it cleaner.

Could be right, could be wrong....sounds about right, though.

To make a good steak you need the flames. I guess blk people dont use wire brushes.

I always recommend doing that in places like parks when you gotta use public grills.

Cleaner? I think its worst. Making hamburgers on foil is

We don't do that shyt here, we know how to grill/BBQ

Grilled meat has better flavor and is more tender if allowed to cook in its own juices. Without foil, the juices fall through to the coals.​

nikkas acting like foil between the meat & the grill makes it no longer grilling

Cats gotta invest in 1 of these.

I spray the whole grill and coals with lighter fluid to burn off all the grit and shyt from the last bbq and scrape all the stuff off while the grill is hot

I never bbq wth foil on the grill. Its pointless. Only time I even used foil is sometimes when I grill salmon. I'll wrap salmon steaks in foil. But never burgers, ribs or steaks.

The juices don't run out as long as you get a good sear on the outside surface of the meat. A good piece of grilled meat is crispy with a little char on the outside and juicy on the inside. No homo.

Those grill brushes are cool, but you can get the same effect using half of an onion. Then I either rub the grate with oil or spray Pam on it.
