• 8. Cover with foil and cook for about 45-50 minutes...uncover, and cook for an additional 20 minutes.
• 9. I like to make fresh rolls with it..sometimes I'll make my own from scratch, and sometimes I'll buy that Rhodes frozen white roll dough and let it rise all day... A fresh roll with butter really just completes the dish!
