May one place meat in an oven sealed with clay (tach b'tit) close to nightfall on Erev Shabbat?
Synopsis
A clay-sealed oven removes the coal-stirring concern because opening it would allow cold air in and ruin the food. The Mechaber permits even beef and whole animals in a sealed oven. The Rema records a dispute about whether sealed ovens permit pot-cooking as well.
