probably make is mushy, but I don't know. gonna soak up in the bark, If it was me, I wouldn't unless you are just putting very lil in there like 1/2 cup or less.

Some people use a covered aluminum pan instead of foiling. No need to use stainless.

Personally I would forget the soy sauce. You can't drink out of spritz bottle.

Yes! There are many ways to finish a butt. All of them taste good!

Take care, have fun, and do good!

I understand the argument the others are making about mushy bark, but I've finished/reheated many in a crockpot which gets all sorts of fat in the bottom and people still really like it. Noone has ever complained!
