    DHed 58 miles to reload this morning, 11’ 7 load out spout.
    dumped air bags truck and trailer and i’m about 1/2 to tall..
    Without letting air out of tires.
    They tried yard dog with 255/70 22.5 tires and my trailer and it’s just hair total, would hit tarp bows.
    They actually had trailer stuck between 2 bows and spout, luckily a 9/16 can take these bows out, had to remove one to get out from under spout.

    They then gave me a load i would’ve been 18 miles from this morning, now they’re out of product for 5-7 hours so here i wait…

    Is it Uncle Ben's or do you have a little rice cooker, or are you just boiling water or stock to cook it? I use instant rice , like Uncle Bens. It is the easiest and I can't taste the difference. ....and Good Luck! :)

    2 boil-in bags of rice, 1 can of clam chowder in any brand other than Campbell’s.

    Mix. Sprinkle a little Old Bay on top.

    Makes for a quick, hearty meal. :)

    You can do this. Not as hard as some think.
    Traditional is a 2:1 ratio. 2 cups water to 1 cup rice. If you want a more chewy texture, reduce water up to 1/2 cup.

    No big deal.
    2 to 1, twice as much water as there is to rice. Ie, 2 cups of water, 1 cup of rice (and you'll have a lot of rice).
    Boil water, pour in rice and a big ol wad of butter, let it rapid boil for maybe 5 minutes, then turn it on to warm/simmer for about 30 minutes. Don't let it cook to fast.
    Good luck and happy eats.

    Edit....oh, and put a lid on it
