I'm fine with keeping my crockpot on, but for some reason keeping the oven on all day freaks me out.

well, i do it to make stew on saturdays, so I figure, what's the difference

Sorry...I meant to say "when I'm not home" it probably doesn't matter, it just freaks me out.

yeah, i mean i'm at home all day with the stew, totally doesn't matter. i've also done it overnight.

i'm with the other dude. sooo paranoid about coming home hoping for toasty dinner and finding toasty home instead.

i usually do a picnic (butt & shoulder) in my smoker, but this seems comparable at least temperature-wise. it is definitely shorter in time -- which is convenient. i'm guessing that's due to the efficiency of heat transfer from the liquid.

yeah, it keeps everything just above boiling.
