if anything is ending up dry or overcookd its because they are overcooking it, period.
Yes, that is what I am talking about. Amateurs who ruin by overcooking and so switching to aluminum foil covered grill, it will create a "oven like broiling of the chicken" with the lid down.

Foil? :why:

Dudes complaining about the grill being hard to clean :what:

On a George Foreman Grill.... :mjlol::russ:

:snoop: there is no justification or rationalization for this it's just sheer laziness.

Cleaning a grill is not a daunting task, it requires the same effort as cleaning a crock pot after usage or a foreman grill, a deep fryer, rice cooker, blender..etc I deep cleaning my grill maybe once every 1 or 2 months but that's just cause I get bored. Grill last decades. Sitting out in the rain and snow and people are crying about soap and water or hittin it with a wire brush?

1. Keeps the grill clean
2. Somethings you want indirect heat/seal in the drip-drip.
3. If people have allergies to fish or shellfish the foil keeps the stuff from touching.
4. easier clean-up (as in the meat and food itself)
5. If you going for low heat/low flame foil is cool cuz the fat drip drips can fuel the fire and make it too hot.


Still somethings are better on that iron though...:manny:

Everywhere...You never there.
Only in public parks do I use foil heavily, otherwise I use it on the upper level of my grill for veggies and the like, otherwise full char with my chicken, steaks etc. I love grilling though it's lots of fun, and cleaning it isn't too bad either.

Uppin this thread because it is pure comedy, but some real tips for some newbies... but I had to give in and use the foil today. :why:

Was gettin' it in at a community grill, forgot my cleaning brush... and I just couldn't... grill was nice (gas, although I prefer coals), but clearly hadn't been cleaned in a minute... Had to foil it up... :snoop: slit the foil and you can still get the grill flavor and some char.

And we need to get something clear... the char grill lines are idea ... but blackened is a different story, and some folks got it twisted. Shyt be blackened and they didn't event intend for their food to be. Blackened is a whole different ball game and a cooking technique and end result that requires ya sauce and smoke game to be A1. It's a real technique. Not just something that stems from over searing and over grilling. Just for the record. Here's an example:

Get ya 4th of July weekend grill game right, people. :usure:

Insignificant posting from an insignificant poster
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.



Plus, you don't want to end up swallowing one of the brissels by accident. Dude went to the hospital cuz he ingested one that came off one of them brush jawns.


Had to get cut up in the stomach and have it surgically delivered out.

Bumpin' this for a sec..

Yo... have y'all ever sprinkled flavored woodchips over the coals to try to reproduce an iota of the smoker flavor effect?


Need to know how this worked for y'all... gotta homie who sprinkles flavored woochips (in addition to using the flavored coals, which doesn't have that much of an effect unless it's lump), and he says it's straight.


I'm kinda :patrice: on it...


And all of my grillers with smokers... was it worth it to go ahead and cop that?
