Did I just ruin my supper?

Put a steak and rice and gravy to cook at about 12:30 this afternoon for supper tonight. I got busy running other errands and left it without adding water for too long and when I just came back it was all dried up. I hurried up and added water and it turned it right back into looking like my gravy when I scraped it up. Did I just totally kill supper and start looking for another option? Or is this salvageable?

if it was just gravy that dried up it should be fine

You might end up with a slight burnt taste to it, but it should be alright. Done it before and no one ever noticed.
If you haven't scrapped the bottom of the pot then try to refrain from doing so is all.

If the meat seems dry, slice it up and let it braise on a low temp in the gravy for a while.
I have supper regularly. Still use that term. Has nothing to do with age.

Taste it. If it doesn't taste burnt, then add a little more liquid snd simmer it the rest of the afternoon. Simmer very slowly, and it will get tender again , unless you made jerky. If it doesn't begin to get tender in an hour it may not get tender in teo or three.

If you really cooked the hell out of it, the meat may crumble into bits when served. It gets grainy. So break it up a little, call it debris, and serve over mashed potatoes. (in a pee wee herman voice) I meant to do that....
What in the hell's wrong with saying supper? I have dinner and supper, like plenty of other people in the South. Lunch is what I eat at my desk.

Amen to that.I think not calling it supper has everything to do with where your mamma & daddy or their parents were born.

Supper derives from the French word souper, so I would think it's quite appropriate to be used here. It's not as much an age thing, as it is the way you're raised. We always referred to it as supper.

I thought this was about eating a candy bar late afternoon or something...
I call it supper at home, dinner when I eat out. That's how I was raised.
BTW- oOoLsUtIgErSoOo, do as said above, braise the meat some, and it should be fine.

Just had this debate with a friend. You can google to verify accuracy, but dinner refers to your large meal of the day, which traditionally was lunch, while supper is a light, evening meal. Dinner also is used to refer to more formal, event-type meals. Supper is your informal evening meal at home.
