This is one of our favorite meals here. Rice & Gravy and meat. A lil salad of fresh Creole tomatoes and cucumber and thin sliced Vidalia onions.

I have been trying to get my rice and gravy right since my family moved from LA 10 years ago. I literally crave that meal. I know it's fairly simple but I have never been able to get it right.
Mind posting the method?

How do you make ya gravy?
browning the meat and onions
Posted on 6/12/14 at 8:17 am to oldcharlie8
I season the meat with salt, pepper and galic & onion powders and sear the meatin a hot pan. Wait til the pan is hot before putting the meat in. I use a wide Magnalite chicken fryer. Best if it's NOT non-stick. Let the meat brown nicely leaving a good fond in the pan. Toss in onions and stir around, usually this deglazes the pan. Let onions cook down and add water(enough to cover the meat). Put the meat back in the pan and cover with lid. Let simmer(braise) until fork tender. Serve. You may need to adjust salt and pepper while cooking.

Ultra classic. My mom made rice and some type of gravy a couple times a week.

What cut of meat did you use, Nate?
Looks delicious, but I must have my rice somewhat swimming in gravy. Same with the meat.
Since I don't like to merge flavors outside of the roast, rice and gravy, those other sides would have to be on another plate so I don't lose gravy to the peas and potato salad.

Nah, I eat cheese and things I can't see through like pies and I don't eat the same thing for 365 days. I just love gravy and I don't love it mixed with peas and potato salad. The bread can stay as long it doesn't soak up too much of the gravy I need for my rice and meat. Thankfully, Nate had the good sense to put the tomato salad in a side bowl.

Hell of a fine looking plate lunch. And I see no crunchies in the PS... Good Man

You're not looking close enough. I think I see some green onion down near the bottom. Oh. I guess those aren't crunchy.
I LOVE CRUNCHY.
