Aluminum Grill Pans

[tigermikie]

Been seeing the complaints about the excessive grease causing fires. I think I have an easy solution. Aluminum grilling pans. I’ve been using these for years in my Performer and Summit when cooking large cuts of meat with a lot of fat. In particular pork shoulder and brisket. The ones I use from Amazon are less than an inch tall and have a ribbed surface which allows some smoke to get to the bottom of the meat. I know some of you like to get that flavor of the grease when it hits the hot grill, but I am sure that a way to get that flavor can be figured out.
Anyway my grills stay a lot cleaner and I don’t think I’m missing any of the smoke flavor.
Just a thought...

BTW...these pans are disposable. And on rare occasions ive used a baking sheet pan with a wire rack for monster briskets.

This works perfectly. These are part of a rack system I use for jerky. It slows down the amount of grease dropping down. And allows smoke through to the bottom of the meat. http://www.earthworkssupply.com/bull-rack-perforated-tray-br4-br6-models/
