Question

Hello. I am interested in purchasing a tandoor. The tandoor reaches 500 degrees and thus purifies itself. I wanted to know if I replace the stone at the bottom of the tandoor and operate it at maximum heat, can I bake pastries that contain meat.

Answer

Hello and blessings 

This is possible. 

In principle, a much lower heat is sufficient to kosher from meat to dairy and vice versa. Such heat is also effective for koshering from chametz to Passover. 

Nevertheless, the poskim have written that it is not correct to regularly switch the same utensil from meat to dairy, as it can easily lead to a situation where it is used without koshering between the types.
