Before the May weekend, store shelves were groaning under the weight of various types of barbecue accessories. These included, among others: aluminum grill trays. They are intended to be a solution for people who cannot imagine placing meat directly on the grill. But is using them really a good idea? In a short video on Instagram, Katarzyna Bosacka answered the question whether you should grill on trays.
Should you grill on trays?
As Katarzyna Bosacka noted, the barbecue season in Poland will begin on the May long weekend. Therefore, the nutrition expert decided to warn Poles against using grilling trays.
In the recording she published on her Instagram profile, she first referred to the research of Dr. Hab. engineer Artur Badyd, professor at the Warsaw University of Technology. She noted that it indicates that the tray protects the meat from burning, which protects our health against carcinogenic substances entering the body. However, she emphasized that not all trays are the same. Disposable aluminum trays have a negative impact on our health.
What to use instead of aluminum grill trays?
Research shows that during thermal processing using a grill tray, aluminum penetrates the prepared food. – We do not grill on aluminum trays. Aluminum can accumulate in our brain, liver or heart, Bosacka warned. An alternative to disposable containers are stainless steel trays, which are increasingly available in stationary home accessories stores or online.
