Is it forbidden to baste a roast with oil or garlic while it is still near the fire, even if the roast was fully roasted before Shabbat?
Synopsis
The Mechaber rules that basting a roast with oil and garlic while it is near the fire is forbidden even if the roast itself was completed before Shabbat, because the garlic and oil will cook. The Taz extends this prohibition to removing a still-hot roast from the fire.
