I can't see why not, but then I can't imagine the smell you are going to end up with in the kitchen. I don't suppose a fan assisted oven would be great, just a plain old fashioned electric perhaps. Mine has a fancy fan built which seems to kick in to keep the top oven cool when using the bottom, it can throw a bit of smoke about when giving the roast a half hour blast.

You will need a decent oven thermometer too, I guess you probably have one though.

I did try it a few weeks back in a Bradley and it wasn't successful, The high heat seemed to cause the burning sawdust to travel through the wire mesh separating the lanes. In effect the whole thing smouldered very quickly.

I won't be trying it again.

Fair play, I admire you for trying this - but didn't the whole house smell of smoke?

I imagine that you won't get a true pulled pork texture with such a small piece of pork, but I'm sure it will taste great anyway.

Really like the way you arranged your spices. What kind of wood is that? Cherry? Nice job.

So how did the pork turn out. Do you pull it or slice it? We are big on pulled pork here.
