Maybe the oven didn't have a baking sheet so he didn't think of it. Like for BBQ you cook directly on the grill
Yeah but even with barbecue you very often wrap it in something. I guess it’s possible to get to that point without learning about aluminum foil, but unlikely. In any case, a valuable lesson for him and we’ve all done dumb stuff and only realized after stopping to think about it for ten minutes so it’s not really that big a deal. Very funny though!
You wrap your food before putting on the BBQ?
It completely depends on the food, my point was that foil exists.
For example if you’re smoking a brisket you wrap it half way through.
Edit: to be clear I’m usually wrapping brisket in peach paper, but the knowledge still applies
wtf is peach paper?
Vegetables, baked potatoes, sometimes entire meals like chicken and shrimp you want to steam rather than fully cook on the grill
I wrap vegetables when I grill them.
Kinda like that guy on Reddit who hated showers all his life until he moved in with his partner & observed them waiting for the water to get hot before getting in
Yeah uh idk where you think these things are taught
I tried wrapping did in foil. The foil melted and then set fire.
Edit: I was on grill
The minimum ignition temperature of aluminum DUST is 750°C. That means your grill was at almost 1400°F. That’s enough to literally forge titanium.

Sorry, but I do not believe you.
Uhhh, pretty sure that aluminum isn't flammable
Uh... Bro? I've used Tin Foil in 650 degree BBQs. I doubt you used foil.
Aluminum has a melting point of 1,220°F (660°C). What brand oven were you using to achieve these temperatures?
A grill. Dynaglow 4 Burner
Rooster is full of cockamamie, or it was parchment paper.
The fuck?
Are you sure you didn't confuse wax paper for parchment paper? Because it sounds like you tried to bake with wax paper.
