Pochetta in a mini Max

I just picked up my used Mini Max (see my other thread; will post some pics once home later in the week).  

First cook on it tonight at my moms was a couple of baked potatos and a strip steak.  

I’m thinking of doing a small porchetta (first one ever) on it tomm.  I have a heat deflector plate for it. Thoughts? It it too close to fire to pull off? 

Thanks in advance.

    You'll be good. I've done a bone in turkey breast in my MINI with no issues.

    Be mindful of the fat renderings as it cooks.  Definitely an air-gapped drip pan for the cook.
    Great eats await.
