Your long cooking method will also help keep my house warm, will let you know how it turns out. <em>Great - RG</em> We are getting another big snow storm this weekend so I figured a pot roast would be perfect.

If you are concerned about burning the bottom you can address it by greasing it more, or partway through the cooking you can move it to sit right in front of the woodstove - once the dutch oven is hot it will stay that way and the proximity to the woodstove will keep it from cooling off, it will keep cooking slowly. With good judgment about how hot your fire is and when to shift your dutch oven's position to keep it at a consistent temp, I have found you can make very good stews on a woodstove. <em>Great post Aaron, thank you.</em> Dennis - Re putting the dutch oven on top of your soapstone woodstove, as long as it is flat-bottomed and made of iron it will receive and conduct the heat from the woodstove to all the metal, if you preheat it a little with the lid on you will be able to feel that the lid is hot to touch, this will be adequate to heat the food inside evenly.

I have a few specialties, but I am not a "cook". This is delicious, easy, familiar yet special.

When you cook in an oven, the heat is coming from all sides and will make a slight difference. How much? I have no idea. I'm sure it will turn out fine so give it a try and let us know.
