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

[MeachTheMonster]

:yestare: i'll be damned having any cac tell me how to cook. my food tastes whether i use foil or not (i dont use it each and EVERY time) so i think i'll be iight with my reynolds wrap

no cac here. Just a self made food aficionado. If you really study this shyt and give it your best effort its really worth it when you sit down and eat your food.

Its all good nikka. The thing about the coli is that you can always learn and improve from the piff thats in these threads. That using the onion on the grill shyt had me like I aint know

true i might try that. won't lie i learned a few things from this thread myself

post that jerk marinade recipe bruh

I will post in a recipe thread if anyone wants to get a coli recipe thread or up one if already created

why can't i cook something how i wanna cook it if the outcome is the same? :yestare:

no way is it equivalent to microwaving & putting something in the oven. microwaving be taking seconds breh

it's still grilling cheap, bootleg, sleazy or not. i'm sure you eat that frozen fast food from time to time so why you comin at me

the outcome isn't the same tho

if you wanna wrap your shyt up in foil and throw it on a grill thats cool, but it's hard to really call it grilling

I love roast corn on a grill too. I ate one off a foiled grill and it wasnt the same

Again. It's damn there impossible to keep a consistent, even, constant temperature with a "grill". I've seen a method where you close all the holes in the grill and add a fan and thermometer to get the desired effect, but it's much easier to use a smoker which was built for the purpose of creating that kind of cooking environment.

Yes you can use the indirect heat method that you posted, but it won't be truly smoked food. You can't use that method with any consistancy when cooking things that take 4-8 even 12 hours like pork shoulder, beef brisket, smoked turkey, etc

As for the gas/pellet smokers, they are a good substitute but nothing beats the real thing.

We're gonna have to disagree on this one. I grew up in a house with a barrel pit, and smoked meat was never a problem...I could see you having issues if you're using the common backyard flat top weber grill, but BBQ'ing is something my dad and my great uncles were known for, they also didn't have money for extra shyt like a stand alone smoker, thus know how to smoke in a pit, and that's how I learned, maybe its difficult for someone just stepping into grilling, but being taught that shyt from them backwoods country nikkas >>>>>>> *

i can't honestly say i've seen anyone except a cac do this

in georgia we throwin our meat on the grill bareback, if you use foil or bbq sauce you a honky

but foil has its applications for shyt like fish and veggies

nikka, i was witchu until you said that dumb shyt. why would a nikka not put barbeque sauce on BBQ?!

nikka, i was witchu until you said that dumb shyt. why would a nikka not put barbeque sauce on BBQ?!

i'd rather have my meat taste like meat instead of some thick ass syrupy sauce that ruins the whole flavor


i was raised to believe if you gotta put bbq sauce on the meat, it aint hittin for shyt

as long as you season and cook it correctly you dont need it

a "barrel pit" is for grilling OR smoking

You said "almost any gas/charcoal grill can be use for smoking"

Your "backwoods country nikkas" would smack the shyt outta you for that statement

One of these joints ....you can grill on it, if you move the coals/manipulate the vents your can smoke...or do both. Ours doesn't have a smoker, but it has two coal trays. And I've smoked meat on the typical weber, I said people may have trouble with that (since its smaller) I've also smoke on gas since my complex doesn't allow charcoal grills, like I said, it's not seeing charcoals & wood smoke, but you can do it

I know exactly what you're talking about. I just haven't seen one sold in stores in a long time.

1. Put charcoals in pit, then spray lighter fluid on charcoals and grill. Let fluid soak.
2. Light the charcoals and grill. Let charcoals settle in and catch that red glow.
3. When grill is hot, scrape with one of those wire brushes someone posted a pic of ealier.
4. Take a half onion on a fork and rub it all over grill.
5. Take the wire brush and give the grill a once over.
6. Take onion give the grill a once over.

Clean grill...

these are a staple in the south....i use mine all the time, and i've grown up seeing everyone use these barrel type grills, but it never occurred to me until now that the reason we close the tops on em is to smoke the meat while its grilling
