    Save the Drip Pan!

    In reviewing the Ultimate Turkey technique (an annual thing!) I couldn't help but think that Meathead is missing a simple technique to not have the stainless steel pan used for drippings getting stained by the smoke.

    Wrap the OUTSIDE of the pan with foil, wrapping to the inside and down to the bottom. When the cook is done, just remove the foil, toss it out and the inside of the pan just needs a simple wash. Outside has no smoke stain.

    Yup.

        I think I remember from Boy Scouts that if you coat the outside of your pan / pot with soap before putting over a fire the smokey residue would just wash off when finished.

          Yeah, but you also had to go find the smoke shifter.

        ... or a quick trip to Costco or Sams to grab some heavy-duty disposable foil pans ...

        I like disposable aluminum pans. If they can't be easily washed, out they go. Dollar store pans are great!

          Mr. Bones, I always hold them up to the light to search for pin holes. Wifey still looks at me like I'm crazy when I do it. She may be on to something.

          Mr. Bones I HATE those pinholes. MBMorgan I get disposable 13 x 9 pans in sets of 30 off Amazon prime, shipped free in 2 days.

          I put the one with pinholes inside the new one, to get a bit more mileage.

        Good idea. But I try not to waste foil. So the question is, which is more environmentally sound: Wasting the foil or wasting the waswater and soap?

          I also am against creating trash when I don't have to. I remember my grandmother's home kitchens. They didn't have ANYthing that was disposable.
