Note

Use a tight-fitting lid or heavy-duty aluminum foil to ensure the meat stays moist during the long bake.

If the gravy is too thick, add a splash of broth or water. If too thin, simmer a bit longer or add a small slurry of cornstarch and water.

Leftovers keep well in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. The flavors often improve the next day as the meat absorbs more sauce.
