It’ll cook, I did one that size for Easter, it took about 14-15 hours on low. It came out great.

Seems like it fits…
With big pieces I find I have to **rotate** them to make sure they’re evenly cooked. It’s not like they will be “uncooked” but if it is meat that requires time to break down tissue and etc the difference can be noticeable if not rotated.
I would be sure to flip it at some point and consider cutting into smaller pieces so you could flip it more than once.
Give it a go.

Same rule as a cat if it fits, it sits.

Just cut some off the top and put it on the side of it doesn’t close.
Make sure the top closes and it’ll be fine

If the lid can sit, the roast will fit.
I saw that written in a cave somewhere.

If you’re making pulled pork, just cut it up until it fits. When I make pulled pork in the slow cooker, I just buy the pork shoulder “country ribs”, and they fit in the slow cooker like a puzzle.

Update:
It’s a 12 pound Boston butt from my local grocer. I had already trimmed about a pound of fat off of it before the original image.
I cut it into thirds, added more onions to the bottom, rubbed the cut sides and it fits! I also set the heat to high. I’m hoping to be able to eat this today lmao.

If I remember I’ll post the finished product.
As long as the lid still properly closes and creates that seal, then you’re good.
Nope
I just did one last week that was almost this exact size. Came out perfect
Na, just add two hours.
It will shrink, but keep an eye out for liquid overflow
