Help- I've been slow cooking my roast for 4 hours and it's a rubber brick??
Jan 15, 2008 by Sarah | Posted in Cooking & Recipes
Is there anything I can do? It's on low...
Evidence points to the obvious fact that someone has swapped your roast for a rubber brick. I would find the perpetrator, and force them to return the roast... Or just hit them with the rubber brick until they do.

cooking a roast in a slow cooker takes like ALL day. The last time we had to make one in like 6-8 hours, we had it in the slow cooker for about 5 hours and like yours it was a rubber brick. Then we moved it to our oven at about 350, and it was still sitting in all the juices and gravy and an hour later we had the best, most moist roast ever! So when you are pressed for time don't use the slow cooker.

POT ROAST
1 large pot roast (approx 4-5 lbs)
1 envelope Lipton Onion Soup Mix
salt, pepper, garlic and onion powder to taste
beef bouillon powder (optional)
Sprinkle pot roast with seasonings and beef boullion if you have some available.
Open envelope and pour entire onion soup mix into the center of two long sheets (double thickness) of aluminum foil wrap. Roll the beef in the soup mix to coat. Wrap tightly with the foil, sealing well. Place package in a large open roaster in oven and set on low heat (275-300 degrees F) for 4-5 hours. If meat is frozen when you start, set oven to 225-250 degrees F for 8-10 hours instead.
During the last hour or so of cooking, add foil-wrapped potatoes to the pan for a side dish. Scrub potatoes well, rub with olive oil and wrap in foil. During last 10 minutes of cooking, unwrap top of potato, make a large X with knife, squeeze potato to soften and drop in butter or cheese to melt. Cook 10 more minutes under broiler. Season with salt and pepper and top with gravy from roast.
Serve.
This is an easy to prepare meal for those days when you're busy elsewhere than the kitchen as it takes very little preparation and basically cooks itself. An added bonus is that the cleanup is easy - everything is cooked in foil!
You can also make this in a Slow cooker (or even in your barbecue or smoker if you plan to have it going most of the day.)

It's not done! Let it continue to cook on low for another 4 to 6 hours and have something else to eat for this evening! Then, tomorrow, have roast beef sandwiches and enjoy the fruits of your labors.

If you have a pressure cooker put it in there along with the liquid and cook for 30 mins only fill the pressure cooker a little less then half way. Everyone should really try it in a pressure cooker its so much faster and just as good if not better.

A roast in the SLOW cooker takes 5-7 hours.
The reason yours is like a rubber brick is because you keep opening the lid.
The lid must stay closed the entire time because every time you remove the lid all the heat escapes.

You got a couple of choices...
Just turn it up & wait or let it go on slow and have it tomorrow! Mine is done in 4 hours on high.
Or you could take it out and put it in the pressure cooker for 30 or 40 min. And it will be done!
Or just put it in a thick pot (dutch oven) on top of the stove, cover and cook it for 45 to 60 min. Take the lid off in the last 20 min to reduce the liquid.

Slow cooking such as a crock pot usually takes six to eight hours.
For now, take it out and place it on a large cutting board or plate. Slice it into several pieces, put it back into the pan, cover, and continue to cook so that the pan juices have a gentle bubble. Watch it closely so that it does not burn.

Everyone mentioning it is not fully cooked is correct. If you've run out of time take it out of the slow cooker, place in a pan with enough cheap red wine and water to cover the bottom. Cover entire thing and bake. It will be about an hour, but the wine will help break down tissue and act as a tenderizer..or just cube it, saute in olive oil, herbs, spices and a dash of red wine. Remove meat, let the liquids reduce into a nice sauce and pour over garlic potato mash. GOOD LUCK!

Girl, good luck. That usually takes all day. I usually put it at night before I go to bed and it's ready for lunch. Good stuff. You just got me hungry.

what's the difference between house bricks and rubber bricks?

To explain atmospheric pressure, we should consider compressible bricks, like fora rubber. Why is this so?
Mar 05, 2009 by cherry | Posted in Physics
We can understand how pressure in water depends on depth by considering a stack of bricks. The pressure below the bottom brick is determined by the weight of the entire sack. Halfway up the stack, the pressure is half because the weight of the bricks above is half. To explain atmospheric pressure, we should consider compressible bricks.
what can I use to cover the brick pool coping to keep the rough edges from destroying the safety cover?
Sep 06, 2008 by bshwkr23 | Posted in Other - Home & Garden
The coping on my pool is rough brick and it is wearing significantly on the underside of the safety cover which is pretty expensive to replace. I need something smooth to line the coping and stay in place. Possibly rubber strips would adhere to the brick but where can i obtain something like that?
you can order pieces that are specifically made by the cover company (loop-loc?) to go underneath the cover to prevent this. My company sells these safety covers and we tell customers that don't want to spend the extra money to cut strips from old carpet and place underneath the cover. But if you have heavy winds you will want to check occasionally as the wind blows the covers up slightly and can blow these pieces into the pool. 3M makes adhesive strips that are specifically made for the safety covers that you can use on the bottom and top side for reinforcement also.

Does the puppy still miss my rubber duck?
Aug 08, 2006 by blingding | Posted in Dogs
I visited my friend's farm, and when I arrived, he had five little black lab puppies. My siblings and I had brought a yellow rubber duck just in case we were bored. Well, when one of the siblings threw it because she was angry, one of the puppies chased after the duck, picked it up, and ran away with it. When I took the duck away, he still wanted it so my siblings constantly played fetch for him, until one of my sisters felt upset for having her rubber duck as a chew toy. So when the puppy was not looking, I hid the rubber duck under some bricks. It was so sad, even when it was time for us to go home, and I felt sorry for having to do that. Should I go back to the farm and give it a rubber duck, or should I just forget about him? My parents say they can't drive to the farm all the time because it's very far.
Get your sister a new rubber duck :P The dog can smell the difference, Your sister would probably prefer one that wasnt chewed up
