i love the idea of 'manifold cookery', but i know if i tried it, it would all go horribly wrong with bits of burnt stew dripping over my exhaust. :wink:

i used to work with an old boy on the farm who would defrost his frozen bread & dripping during the winter like this, untill his tin got knocked loose and lost god knows where :)
