    Yep about a third of the circumference in a snake...about 5 hour's uncovered the rest in a covered tray with a bit of stock.
    I added some freshly fired up coals around 4 hours in as I cooked some sausages fo lunch and the resulting opening to check and turn loses a bit of heat.

    Agree with that!! Also a mutton or lamb shoulder slow roasted.... (the best I've had, was slow cooked in olive oil for hours, then pulled out and roasted at heat of sun temp, until golden. Apparently, you save the oil and the 4 or 5th cook is the best. This was at a restaurant and managed to talk to the chef. The one I had was the second use of the oil)
    Ox tail I think is my pick though. Need a mortgage just to buy enough for a decent feed now though.
    Please excuse spelling, as finger speed is sometimes behind brain spped........ Or maybe the other wayy.....

    The only annoyance is the price of the beef cheeks and tje fact that I bought a rub for the first time ever and it was good and I dont know what is in it.
    This is good. What rub you used to cover it? I have similar method, use red rice and salt and first step is to age the beef in a earthen jar, large one for 3 days.

    A bit more yearling shoulder in a Red wine mushroom stew and mashed spuds... I think I have my recipe just about perfect now.

    Tried something new.
    Lamb shanks marinated overnight - chilli powder, mint, soy sauce, white pepper, maple syrup, salt, Korean Red pepper flakes, olive oil and a good slug of vodka (it really pulls the flavors from the mint and chilli, and spreads them aroud the meat well, and doesn't add anything taste wise)

    Put in a roasting pan, covered on foil and 140deg c for 3 hours, then 220 uncovered for 20mins.

    Really nice, but no soy next time.
    And maybe a sprinkle of salt after uncovering.

    The meat was amazing texture, and juicey as. But needed more salt,....
    And the soy added a not anticipated taste. Live and learn. Still was very edible.

    Looks tasty ��
    I would have gone the other way tho and gone hot and fast first,get a bit of char then cover and low and slow with a bit of stock/wine/beer in there.(even water if you are one of those people)

    Yeah I do that method to - especially if the bbq is on for something else. With these ones I was worried the maple syrup would burn and give a bitter taste (done that before....)
    And adding water is for pasta or soup
