The theory is that with the foil turned shiny side in (to the meat) the heat (radiant heat) is kept in and vise versa. Believe it or not they have actually done testing on this and it does make a difference but some of my family refuse to admit it

I have always been curious to know is anyone else even cares about this or if we are just anal

I just use whatever side is showing when you roll it out of the box? Never even looked at a shinny side? Man, no offense but someone in your house needs a hobby and fast

Let me ask you a question. We have an ongoing argument within the family about using foil and specifically the shiny vs the dull side. Do you pay any attention to that?

I have always heard shinny side out

Cooking is one of my hobbies but I take them all to the extreme thanks to my compulsive disorder I got from my compulsive father

Glad to hear someone else knows there is a difference. Even though it's wrong

Here is what Reynolds wrap has to say about it:

Which side of Reynolds Wrap® Aluminum Foil should I use, the shiny or the dull side?
Actually, it makes no difference which side of the aluminum foil you use—both sides do the same fine job of cooking, freezing and storing food. The difference in appearance between dull and shiny is due to the foil manufacturing process. In the final rolling step, two layers of foil are passed through the rolling mill at the same time. The side coming in contact with the mill's highly polished steel rollers becomes shiny. The other side, not coming in contact with the heavy rollers, comes out with a dull or matte finish.

The exception is when using Reynolds Wrap® Release® Non-Stick Aluminum Foil. The non-stick coating is applied during manufacturing to the dull side of the foil. Always place the non-stick (dull) side toward the food.

Reminds me of a joke posted a while back, about the misadventures
of a judge at a BBQ cookoff.

You just use the juice, on a 10lb brisket is just ads a little kick.

Yeah I know. That statement has been brought up many times I think they are only referring to the general use of the foil and not actually taking into consideration radiant heat gain/loss.

It's a scientific fact that shiny materials reflect more light or radiant heat than a dull object so that's why I think it matters. I am also on a bar-b-que forum and I'm pretty sure most of those guys use the shiny side in. I'm no master but I do enjoy my work
