I've been using this method since it was first posted - but wanted to share that I just made copious amounts of rice this way for a luau I hosted. I used catering chafing dishes (the four inch deep ones and using my favorite short grain brown rice (from Costco used 9 cups of rice with 18 cups of boiling water per large pan. Added a bit of salt and olive oil. Covered with foil and voila! Same cooking time achieved the same wonderful result. So don't be afraid of adjusting the servings.

I used to HATE brown rice. None of the recipes I tried turned out even remotely edible, but this one is phenomenal!!!! I won't eat any rice but this now. Leave it to Alton Brown to come up with this... he's awesome. Try this with brown basmati rice!
