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.
