Whoa! The weather has taken a turn. A turn toward cold, dark and WET! I seem to be entering hibernation mode. All I want is my sweats, big cups of coffee and comfort food. Last Friday I decided a pot roast was the key to my happiness. I used the Pioneer Woman’s recipe for the Perfect Pot Roast. Using one pot and simple ingredients {chuck roast, vegetables, beef stock, and herbs} it fit all my criteria for a great recipe. The meat was so moist and tender it fell basically fell apart when I sliced it. I will warn you. It cooks 4+ hours in the oven. With busy weekday schedules, it is most likely a weekend or Sunday dinner. But it so worth the wait! Plus, we had a huge amount left over. It gave us a bonus meal of French Dip Sandwiches {using this au jus recipe}. Who doesn’t love bonus meals?
Stay warm and dry.
