Pyrex in the UDS?

Howdy farkers.

Smoke is on. Fatty in the morn was beyond fantastic. Just pulled the ribs out. Mac/cheese is cooling. Beer butt chicken skin is crisping. Life is good.:icon_cool

Quick question: is pyrex in the UDS a good idea? Working on my curry throwdown entry and do not want to put it in a aluminium pan if I can help it. less chance of burning if I can use pyrex. I think it should hold up... max temp i'm planning is 325*F.

Your thoughts or experiences are welcome.

Thanks!

Thanks for all the info.

I remember the recent pyrex explosion threat. I don't think I am that concerned about it exploding. The reported incidents usually involve some sort of thermal shock - hot pyrex + not so hot liquids/hot burner/cool counter etc. Pyrex in a UDS should work much as it does in an oven , right? Plus I was planning on using a pizza pan diffuser.

Cleanup is a whole diferent matter, and probably what deters me. I thought about wrapping the outside in foil, but the inside would likely still get farked up. I think I'll double up on the aluminium pans and set them over a water pan to be sure.

The decision is also easier because I used the pyrex in question to make mac & cheese today, and I'm too lazy to empty it out and wash it!
