re: looking for a good rice and gravy recipe if anyone has one

How bout Country Style??

Tree's Country Pot Roast

1) Make some holes in the Roast with a Knife and plug it with toes of Garlic cut long ways.

2) Season roast generously as you like.

3) Dust with Flour.

4) Cover the bottom of a Black Iron Dutch Oven with oil, heat, then sear the Roast on all sides.

5) Cut two stalks of Celery, one Onion, a couple Potatos and add a bag of baby Carrots. Put all in Dutch Oven with Roast.

6) Add one can of Beef Consomme (Can Beef Broth or French Onion Soup can be substituted).

7) Place in Oven at 350, covered, for 1/2 hour per pound.

8) Baste every 30 minutes, adding water as needed.

9) When done, remove Roast and Veggies, then the liquid can be thickened with a Corn Starch/Hot Water mixture or added to a Roux to make a Gravy.

I like a Chuck Roast for this dish. Its all about the Fat!!!!!!!
