I want your meat in my...

[Chuck_Finley]

I think it's unfortunate that most people only know how to cook meat on an outdoor grill. Admittedly I'm not the cook in the household, but the little woman uses the stuff I bought for her, namely a lot of cast iron cookware.

Purchase a good quality cast iron griddle, something like this:

throw steaks, chicken, whatever on there and enjoy the results. This is the only way she cooks steaks now; we have no "traditional" grill anymore. I have no complaints.

ETA: I still want an answer of which woman's oven on this board I can stick my meat in.

1). Are you a woman?
2). "Fall off the bone" ribs are over cooked.

1. No
2. Not when they're cooked IN BBQ sauce.

They taste good to me and are exactly what she was asking for.

These are super easy and taste great, fall off the bone good.

Heat is too high, or you're cooking too long.

Yep. The thing I love about baking is how soft and juicy the meat is. Use a large glass baking dish, like what you'd put casserole in, and you can cook chicken beasts, pork (tenderloin or thick chops), big turkey beast, or fish in various juices/sauces and seasonings. You can't do that on a grill. Don't be shy with the liquids and don't overcook the meat. 350 is plenty high, and just adjust your time according to the type/thickness/quantity of meat. The possibilities are endless.

The oven usually dries everything out (except pork) for me. Maybe that'll be my best bet.

Heat is too high, or you're cooking too long. Don't so it when broiling, but wen baking try covering with foil for most of the cook.


You should also scrap the time frame given on recipes. Ovens vary in power. Some controls are less accurate than others. Any time you cook meat, whether it be grill, oven, or smoke; cook to an internal temp. Once you get used to that, you'll quickly graduate to going by the look and feel.

Mississippi Pot Roast. For the larger roasts I up the recipe to 2 packs of each mix, but can be too overpowering if its a smaller roast.

1 Chuck Roast
1 pk of Au Jus Gravy mix
1 pk of dry Ranch mix
1 stick of butter
4-6 pepperoncini peppers (depending on size of peppers)

Place roast in crockpot, sprinkle mix on top, place stick of butter on top of roast, and place the peppers in the pot. Do not add water. Cook all day.
