>Boiling meat in a bag for 10 hours just seems like a bad idea.
yeah, I was going to try it in the slow cooker >>8398749
or even in the cooler like this guy did >>8398829
I was also not so sure about meat being cooked in the plastic tho I was willing to try, but now after reading this post >>8399831
I'm going to scrap that project and slow cook in my cast iron pot/cast iron dutch oven.

If tough piece of meat as brisket can come out nice and soft cooked in cast iron on low heat
it's good enough for me.

I have several regular thickness (heavy) cast iron pots and pans some black some enamelled,
but this one is also very efficient and light weight and surprisingly retains heat very well for it's lightweight with white enamel inside and red outside.


For example when I cook wild rice in it, I bring rice to boil (without the lid) then turn the heat off and put the lid on and after around 1-1/2 to 2 hours rice is fully done.
