Has anyone tried this? On vacation and trying to figure out how to keep food warm.

Don't do it. It can catch fire. Burn a hole through

What she said.
Just warm everything until piping piping hot, wrap in towels, and eat meal early.

I figured that was the answer but wanted to confirm. I thought we had an oven at the hotel. Oh well.

Seems to me if you have a heavy duty baking sheet it's at least as thick as a blech if not thicker. If you're talking disposables that's a different story. I have very heavy aluminum baking sheets considerably thicker than my blech. I wouldn't use them as a blech because that would ruin them.

My parents got theirs over 35 years ago at a metal shop. They asked for a sheet of steel.
A real cookie sheet is fine, buy a disposable pan is a really bad idea.

Do NOT use a disposable one! They will melt and burn.
I use a heavy duty professional grade cookie sheet, and fill it with water. Then I put a slightly larger size cookie sheet upside down on top of it. This makes a "water blech".
Because you have a keli of water underneath, you can stir pots, and take things on and off the blech. It solves a lot of halachic problems! It also gives a nice even heat all Shabbos long, without anything getting dried out or burnt.
Pour boiling water into the blech just before Shabbos, and set the heat to "simmer". Easy Peasy!

We use a water Bleich which is a hotel panwith a flat lid. I've done this in a hotel with a foil pan and those lids that are purpose made for them. The water keeps it from burning out and the lid keeps if from evaporating

Did I make this up or did I hear somewhere that a blech has to be able to cover the knobs too?
The idea of a water blech is so innovative! Do you know any more details about how it changes the halachos of a blech?

How does a disposable foil pan over a direct flame not burn a hole through?

You did not make this up. It is indeed the case, that the knobs should be covered.

Hi all. Thanks for the suggestions. We made an overnight potato kugel double wrapped in the oven (we weren't expecting to have) and the putting the food in the top of the off cooktop was good enough
For the person asking about the water blech. We use one at home and love it. Look up kediera blech.
