I have pepper stout beef in a 10Q DO. If I bring it up to serving temp at home will it still be warm enough to serve an hour later?  It is full to the brim.

    Can you wrap a couple of towels around it and put it in a cooler?  Even a cardboard box with a few towels and I'll bet you're fine.

    If your DO is cast iron, you'll have nothing to worry about.

    I think the DO alone will be fine but a cooler or box with some towels would make it easy to transport and give you some more insulation. (If I understood correctly it sounds like you are taking it somewhere). 

    Which came first the chicken or the egg?  I egged the chicken and then I ate his leg.

    Cooler is ideal as it is easy to clean in case beef slops over the side of the full to the brim DO, and don't use the good towels to wrap it with! This is experience talking here.
    Enjoy!

    Well that worked great!  Even an hour after removing from the heat,  an oven mit was still required to touch the DO.

    So how did it turn out?  Pulled beef sammiches are a sure win!

    It turned out great.  This is a pic I took in the dark.  I had one more 3lb section of chuck roast to shred and put in there at the time this pic was taken.  This batch turned out pretty spicy.  I loved it.  Grandma thought it was too hot :smiley:
