I would like to try this but I have learned from experience that smelling something like this means I will not get any sleep at all.http://m.huffpost.com/us/entry/6085240?utm_hp_ref=tw

Super slow roasted meat, Daniel Patterson's method
- Thread starter heather_in_sf
- Start date
Debbie in GA's 12-hour roast saved my MIL's life. Honestly.
I had put it on at 11:00 PM and got up at 3:00 AM to check on it because the number of pieces of meat that I'd cooked that were bigger than my head was exactly ONE...and it was in the oven.
I heard my MIL (who had been living with us for 3 years) call out and went into her room. She tried to walk but couldn't. Larry and I tried to carry her, but she collapsed. We called 911 immnediately and they rushed her to the hospital.
They stabalized her--turned out she was one of those people who had been given two different medications for cholesterol that contradicted each other. ER doctor said if she had slept through the night, some chemical level in her would have caused death by morning. At least 14 people died from that before they realized what was happening.
As it was, she was in Urgent Care for 5 days and then in rehab for 3 weeks to regain her ability to walk.
And that's how Debbie in GA's 12-Hour Fresh Ham Roast saved her.

I totally get the smell factor.
My grandmother would slow roast her Thanksgiving birds overnight and there was a direct conduit from the kitchen to my bedroom above. I smelled that bird cooking all night and by morning, the last think I wanted was turkey.
Thankfully, my bed now is a long way from the kitchen and I use this method frequently.
I just did pulled pork for a party. I put it in the oven at 10:00PM at 225F. Went to bed, turned the oven off at 10AM, and let it cool in it's own juices until I could shred it.
It doesn't get much better than that.
At the party, I had this person raving about the pulled pork and asked me how I did it. (see above).
"Oh!!!! That's too much work! (not at all really). Just put it in a crock pot! It's so easy!"
I said, well, you don't get the deep caramelization and flavor in the crockpot that you get in the oven. You just get boiled meat.
Again, "that's too much fuss."
I said, that must be why you liked it so much.
Smile.
