The roast may look dry on the surface, but it's usually very moist and
tender inside. Remember, it's roasting in a closed, steamy evironment, not
dry heat. That makes a difference. FWIW, I never cook roasts on HI, if
fact I cook very few things on HI, even to start. I cook a roast on LOW
for anywhere from 8-12 hours, depending on the size and cut.
