Sometimes you just want comfort. As in tummy-filling, warm comfort food. The kind of food that calls to mind your grandmother’s Sunday pot roast or chicken and dumplings. That’s what this Slow Cooker Beef and Gravy over Arkansas Rice does for us.

It’s not fancy. It’s not even particularly pretty. But it’s definitely tasty. When served with the fluffy rice and perhaps some fresh tomatoes, green beans or carrots, it takes on its own little prettiness.

Plus, it will make your mouth very happy. And I bet you don’t get any complaints from the hubby or kiddos either.

Head on over to Taste Arkansas for the recipe. Leave some comment love there if you’re so inclined. I’d appreciate it.

Oh, and go thank a beef farmer while you’re at it. We have lots of ’em in Arkansas and they contribute tremendously to our economy.
