Question
Hello, I am at a Zimmer and want to place a pot of cholent in the yard of the Zimmer to leave it until the evening. I wanted to ask how I can avoid the issue of meat being left unattended? (Should I make a hole in the pot and its lid and insert a toothpick between them so it is noticeable if the pot is opened? Or is the order of placing the potatoes on the meat, etc., sufficient?)
Answer
Hello
The allowance is when you can identify if the meat has been replaced.
Therefore, if you can identify the piece or its seasoning, the meat is permitted.
