Best way to transport pastalaya for Sunday

Disposable styrofoam ice chest.

No need for ice chest. Pack in pans cover in heavy foil and roll. Can wrap in an old towel or blanket if really concerned

Foil pans. Cover it. Transport in an ice chest.

Crazy how long things stay warm in an ice chest. I put 2 pork butts in a chest around 9am and didnt shred until 4pm. They were still hot.

If you're using foil pans, it's a good practice to wrap the entire pan in platic wrap first before covering with the foil lid.

The plastic wrap gives you an extra layer of protection from spills and creates a moisture barrier to keep it from druing out.

A little late to the thread but if you take a few bricks (I wrap in foil to keep it sanitary) and put in the oven at 300 for about 30 minutes, wrap in towel, and place in bottom of cooler you got yourself a hotbox. I lay another towel on top and bottom to keep it from touching cooler or food directly. Just place food in foil pans and leave on top of bricks. If you are worried about melting the cooler you can keep the oven at 180-200 degrees and it'll still be better than an empty cooler.
