    Why does my grill pan get loads of grease in the bottom, from bacon, sausages etc, yet I always put a layer of foil in the pan before using it?
    I don't clean it often but it's thick when I do.

    Do you fold the foil up round the edges to make like a mini tray?

    Also is it a single piece of foil or is there a join?

    You have nothing to worry about unless you get black stools in your grill pan after many red wine & Guiness cocktails.

    A single piece wrapped round the edges.
    Impenetrable, but not in my case.

    Hole in the foil. Happens to mine every so often. Probably caused by the West Stand virus.

    My wife always says, first rule of thumb darling if you don't want to spend hours dealing with grease, buy quality foil and don't skrimp on the cheap s**t

    Exactly this. Good quality (more expensive) foil is impenetrable for grease/liquid, but poor quality (cheap) tends to have microscopic pin holes in it due to the manufacturing process.

    So stop being a tight get Mr Badger, or live with the grease.

    We've got some Bacofoil so I'll swap my bit of Aldi foil for that.
    I'll report back later.
