Aluminum Foil?

[c bain]

I've always been told you should use acidic liquids in Aluminum cookware. Does this apply to acidic bastes such as vinegar and appled juice based ones? I wrapped my butt a little while ago, and now I'm wondering if the applie juice I basted it with right before closing it up and putting it back on the smoker is going to cause a problem.

I havn't foiled a butt yet, but I have foiled ribs on a few occasions with apple juice, and it didn't seem to be a problem. No metallic taste or anything.

I agree. However, I've never used vinegar, just applejuice.
