כדי שיצולו. כמאכל בן דרוסאי, והוא שליש בשול, ובכך הוא ראוי לאכילה ותו ליכא למיגזר שמא יחתה בגחלים:
חררה. עוגת רצפים:
שיקרמו. תחלת אפיה עושין כמו קרום:
פניה. שהם כלפי אויר התנור:
כדי שיקרום התחתון. המדובק לחרש התנור, דהוא נאפה תחלה קודם שיקרמו הפנים שכלפי אויר התנור, ובהכי סגי. ואין הלכה כרבי אליעזר:

Mishnayos Shabbos Perek 1 Mishnah 11
שבת פרק א׳ משנה י"א
Bartenura
משלשלין את הפסוח – their ovens have their mouths above and they lower the roasted [Passover offering] into it, and for that reason, it [i.e., the Mishnah] teaches, משלשלין /they lower/let down.
עם חשיכה – and even though generally, we do not roast it, as we have stated, here it is permitted, for the members of the group are zealous and they remind each other [that today is Shabbat] and they don’t come to stir the coals.
ומאחיזין את האור – [they ignite with kindling wood] a bit, with the pile of wood of the House of the Hearth (see Mishnah Tamid, Chapter 1, Mishnah 12), and we don’t suspect lest the Kohanim will come to start a fire once it gets dark, since the Kohanim are zealous.
בית המוקד – a large chamber in the [Temple] courtyard where they would always start a fire with wood and the Kohanim would warm themselves there, since they walk barefoot on the alabaster floor.
ובגבולין – a person needs to start a fire with his wood while it is still daylight (i.e., on Friday), in order that it catches the majority of the wood, and that the flame will go up on its own and does not need thin chips underneath it to flame the fire.
אף בפחמים כל שהוא – just as in the fire of the House of the Hearth, we are lenient in the House of the Hearth for the Kohanim, similarly, in a fire of charcoals, we are lenient for all people, and there is no need for anything other than any quantity that catches fire, for it is not accustomed to be extinguished and it continues and no one comes to stir it. And the Halakha is according to Rabbi Yehuda for there is no one who disputes him.
משלשלין את הפסח. התנורים שלהן פיהן למעלה ומורידין הצלי לתוכו, להכי תני משלשלין:
עם חשיכה. ואע״ג דבעלמא אין צולין כדאמרן, הכא שרי, דבני חבורה זריזין הן ומדכרי אהדדי ולא אתו לחתויי בגחלים:
ומאחיזין את האור. מעט, בעצים של מדורת בית המוקד, ולא חיישינן שמא יבואו הכהנים להבעירה משתחשך דכהנים זריזין הן:
בית המוקד. לשכה גדולה היתה בעזרה שמסיקין בה מדורה תמיד והכהנים מתחממים שם, לפי שהולכים יחפים על הרצפה של שיש:
ובגבולין. צריך האדם להבעיר מדורתו מבעוד יום כדי שתאחוז האור ברובה, וכמה ברובה, כדי שתהא שלהבה עולה מאליה ואינה צריכה לקסמין דקין תחתיה להבעירה:
אף בפחמין כל שהוא. כי היכי דבמדורת בית המוקד מקילינן בבית המוקד לכהנים, כמו כן במדורת פחמים מקילינן לכל אדם וא״צ להאחיז בהן האור אלא כל שהוא, שאין דרכה להיות כבה והולכת ולא אתו לחתויי בהו. והלכה כר׳ יהודה דליכא מאן דפליג עליה:

After World War II, in 1947, Rav Yonah Sztencl, a disciple of Rav Frommer, expanded the program, advocating for a comprehensive study of Shishah Sidrei Mishnah.

כדי שיצולו – like the food of Ben Drosai (who, according to Rashi, was a pirate; see Talmud Shabbat 20a, s.v. קן דרוסאי) and would cook his food one-third through, and as such, it would be eatable but further, there was no decree made lest he stir the coals.
חררה – a thick cake baked on coals
שיקרמו – at the beginning of its baking it forms a crust.
פניה – which was towards the atmosphere of the oven.
כדי שיקרום התחתון – which cleaves to the earthenware of the oven, which is baked first prior to the crust forming on its face towards the atmosphere of the oven, and with this it is sufficient. But the Halakha is not according to Rabbi Eliezer.
