How do I make a roast come out really tender?
I am making a roast with carrots and potato's for dinner.. Usually when i make it, its tough and hard to chew. How do I get it to come out really tender?
Answers:
The best is low heat for a long time (I agree wih sheloves). When we say low heat we mean like 185 degrees. To do this safely you must first put the oven at 500 deg. and put in the roast until the outside is heated to high temp and turns brown (a few minutes only). This kills any possible bacteria which mght be on the outside. Any baceria would only be on the outside not the inside. Then turn the heat way down. It may need like 6 hours to cook depending on the cut. This is how the commerical world does it. Make sthe meat real tender.
If you don't have time, I would use a pressure cooker. The meat won't be quite as flavorful, but it will be very tender.
