What cut of roast did you use and what temp did you use for cooking it?

That's not slow cooking brotha.

I think there's a chance it's the operator, but it could be the meat...

Bottom round and 350F, I believe. I'm gonna try 325F and make sure it comes out at no more than 135F internal next time. This is for cooking in the oven in a cast iron skillet with no lid.

Why would you cook a roast for rice and gravy with no lid? Cooking it covered is key and you shouldn't cook it any higher than 300, for AT LEAST 30 minutes a pound. Cooking it with no lid and at 350 is why is was dry.

Well, Otis2, I think you may be right. Cooking that cut, uncovered at 350 must have been like leather.

No rice will be needed for the roast cooked, uncovered at 350.

I like both sticky and long grain, depending on my mood, Count. I'm not much on rice by itself other than jasmine or something like it. I like a little something with the rice, whether it's herbs, wine in the water or a little butter, like I ate when I was a child.

I will support your short grain mission to a great extent. However, short grain rice will not save a meal of dried out roast.

You are my only supporter! All the others do not understand the need for my short grain mission, nor the infusion of Smuckers grape jelley into a peanut butter sammich.

It pleases me that you have such great taste and are on my side... Count

I grew up on short grain as well. My grandmothers were from Church Point and Ville Platte and that's all they cooked.

Don't get all excited, now. I said I would support you to a "great extent". I didn't say I was 100% going to the dark side. However, I do like short grain rice.

I must have missed the Smucker's grape jelly arguments. As a child, I didn't know there was a jelly flavor other than grape for pb&j's, but it was always Welch's for me.

See, another believer. I grew up in Abbeville. We had Mahatma's. We always ate short grain. Don't know the rhyme or reason for it, we just did. Most on the Board have never even tried it, therefore, my mission

Gris Gris, the thing about the PB&J is not about the jelley brand, it all started cause I could not get the word "infusion" out my brain. Crawfish infused this, seasoning infusion that, blah, blah, blah
