Beef Roast question
Karen, Alton Brown (TV cook guy) claims that the connective tissue in roasts will dissolve into gelatin with very low temperature cooking. He has you use a beef chuck roast wrapped in foil at the lowest heat your oven can do for 3.5 hours. I tried this but my roast still came out rather tough.
What do you think? Was his advice accurate? Maybe I just needed more time.
One deviation I made was he suggested using the beef chuck roast with the 7 shaped bone in it and all my store had was the boneless variety.
