WHen I was in School the instructor was telling us about using the motor as a Oven to Bake a Potatos and grilling a Steak while he went down the road. Has anyone ever tried this?

I did a steak once. It took about 6 hours, and tasted like garbage. It was tough as all heck. I had to wrap it in about 10 feet of aluminum foil, and it was really difficult to find a place where it wouldn't fall out. From what I remember, I pinned it somewhere near the exhaust manifold.

:lol: :shock: Yummy.
Might can use a Mack's exhaust manifold to smoke a brisket. That should be enough smoke. :P

Despite my prior tongue-in-cheek "road roast" recipe, no. And I doubt I'd try it either, due to the lack of heat control and the possibility, however remote, of contaminating my food with road grime and hydrocarbons.

When I did it, I wrapped it about 6 times in tinfoil, so that there was no contamination. But the uneven (and way too low) heat just doesn't work well for cooking.
when I hauled asphalt about a hundred years ago, we used to wrap hotdogs in foil and stick them in the asphalt, by the time we got to the jobsite, they were done just right
Useing the Truck Motor as a Oven?
