Forget the sand. The first time it gets on your food, you will crack
your teeth. Plus you can't re-use it too often. A better option is to
use a terra cotta saucer. You can get 'em at Home Depot or a similar
store, look for 'em where they have all the gardening supplies. They
aren't expensive at all, a 14 incher is under 10 bucks.Cover the top
of the saucer with aluminum foil, and then put that into your water
pan. Cook as usual, then toss the foil. If you do get grease under the
foil, clean the saucer with water and a few drops of dish detergent.
