I tried cooking some pork ass in a hole in the ground, as I often do, but something went awry. When I uncovered it 6 or so hours later, it was entirely uncooked, as if the perfect coals I had going when I buried it had died as soon as they were covered. Now, I would say they were suffocated, but I've done this so many times, and this has never happened. Is it bad charcoal? Anyway, my main question is: if I try cooking this pork (which sat in a tepid hole in the ground for 6 hours) in my oven and eat it, will I die?

OP, this is kinda hard to answer without knowing more specifics of how you were cooking this.
I know of two basic ways of "cooking in a hole": one method is to get the coals going and then to cover them loosely, so there is still some air available to keep the coals going. If this was the method you were using then either you suffocated the fire completely, or the coals weren't going well enough before it was covered up.
The other method would be to keep the fire going for a long time and have it heat up the ground/stones/etc so much that the residual heat will cook the food even with the coals extinguished. If that was the method you were going for then you probably didn't have the fire going long enough before the cooking process.

Both, essentially. I built a fire in the hole and burned it for a couple hours then added mesquite charcoal and let that burn until was all white. Three my pork in and covered it with some wood and then some dirt. I've done this many times and this has never happened.

No, if it was in the "Danger Zone" toss it.

In Boston, people have butts where their shoulders should be, and their heads are actually turds protruding from their anus. That's why all Bostonians are shit heads and why they call pork shoulder "Boston butt".

Create an air vent next time to circulate the heat. Or just grab some PVC and run it through the ground diagonally from your pit to the surface.
