I recall the instructions say never use Tin Foil over the grates. I have not tried doing that but I have tried putting the meat inside a foil pan which is basically the same thing. Kinda. I have seen on here where folks put their meats in a Tin Foil pan with success. I decided to try it and my MES didnt like it. I cant remember the exact details as it was several cooks ago, but I recall the temp swings were crazy with the tin foil pan. I will have to experiment with it some more and pay better attention to exactly what happens, but are there any fine details I may be overlooking?
Maybe it makes a difference what rack its on?
Maybe the size of the pan?
It seems the swings only happen with the pans. Every time I wrapped the meat say for example the 3,2,1 rib process, no problems with that. Its only the foil pans. Maybe it was a fluke but just wondering if anyone else has experienced this?
