Using Aluminum Foil In Cooking

I suggest that you safely secure the foil-wrapped goodies to the engine block on your vehicle and cook it that way. I started doing this when I was in college, and I could travel and arrive with a nice, hot meal. Of course, back then, I was just experimenting on cook times, and I usually just cooked steaks and potatos. But I have just looked online and discovered that there is a cookbook for this sort of cooking. The book is called, Manifold Destiny, by Chris Maynard and Bill Scheller.

Your chicken sounds good. I generally just barbecue chicken in a oven basting it every 15 minutes and turning also. Well if I am gonna get sick from aluminum exposure, it would have had to start with my mother LOL She lined anything she put in the oven with aluminum foil. I learned off her because I did not like having to scrub pans down a lot or have them soak overnight and some pans will rust. I individually wrap my baked potatoes both white and sweet with reynolds wrap too. I learned to stick each potato a few times with a knife on all four sides and then place on a sheet of foil shiney side out and coating each potato with margarine then sprinking with salt and pepper and a few dashes of soy sauce. It will take about an hour and half in a regular oven of 425, but sweet potatoes don't seem to take as long. Anytime I am baking cakes, cookies, I always line my pans with aluminum foil. Shiny side up because the shiny side reflects heat and could cause a higher temp when cooking. At least this is what I have been taught since I started cooking when I was still home with my mother. Good Luck with your dinner and you will have to let us know how it turned out. Your chicken also sounds good in a crock pot too. I made pulled pork yesterday and marinated once the pork was cooked in a sweet barbecue sauce for an hour after I had pulled it.
