Is pork a dry meat?

Why is my meat always tough?

What you know as meat is mostly muscle tissue. ... Additionally, overcooking meat, even meat that comes from the more tender muscles, can make it tough. That's because heat causes the proteins in the meat to firm up. Overcooking also basically squeezes the moisture out of the meat, making it dry as well as tough.

What is the best way to cook a tough roast?
