    Cooking in clay?

    Anyone ever heard of this before? It piqued my interest, but I'm not sure if it's worth trying. The clay seems like a next level foil wrap, but I'm not sure how the mass of the clay would impact the cooking. Plus, there could be no browning.

    Get ready to get your hands dirty and eat heartily. An Italian chef in southern Italy is resurrecting an ancient cooking method that makes the most tender, fall-apart lamb. Here’s the recipe.

    I'm always amazed at the bragging of getting something tender. Use crock pot leave the clay for foundation use.

      I’ve heard of it… like cooking a pig in the ground… steam does wonders…
      I think I would prefer Chinese clay pot dishes… it gives the same effect and you get to reuse your clay pots!

        We had a clay baker years ago from Germany.
        Couldn't pronounce its name then or now.
        You used to have to soak it in cold water for an hour prior to use, we only ever used it in the oven because it max temp limitations.
        I suppose you could use it on a BBQ if you could control temps well enough.
        The meals cooked were really really good, always very moist, and no, no browning.
        I'd buy one again if I could find one.

        Romertopf is the brand name
