You can use it for lower temperatures. (< 300°F). You can realistically go up to 400°s but I think it starts to do odd things when above 300°F (it's been awhile since Ive used it so take that with a grain of salt).

It's used in a lot of smoking/roasting applications to keep the moisture in. Just don't let it touch the element and you should be fine.

What is this, "el-em-ent?" I don't understand. Are you talking about the hot coals?

(On a related note, Hank Hill was wrong.)

Lol, yeah, essentially coals. An element (or coil) is what's used to heat a standard convection oven or toaster.

To add, this is for electric heat. Not gas.

Ty! I didn't know it was safe for a smoker.

[-] Alteon@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

No problem. Yeah, if your doing something like brisket, you can smoke it for the first half to get a good bark on it. And then wrap it in butcher paper to trap the moisture in for the second half. It's to help prevent stalling.

It's also known as the Texas Crutch.
