In my mind a Pot roast is the epitome of family sit down Sunday dinner main course. However, I don't really like meat all that much and so I had never made one until this last year. Roasts were on sale and I figured I had better learn how to make one, you know in case of some food emergency or something!! Anyway, I called my good friend Karen and she gave me the sure fire way to make any roast (even a chuck roast) tender and tasty!
EASY POT ROAST:
Ingredients:
1 can diet soda (I used diet pepsi, but have also used diet dr. pepper)
4 Tbsp. Apricot jam
1 packet onion soup mix
1 pot roast (approx. 2.75 lbs.)
Directions:
Put roast in crock pot.
Pour diet soda over roast.
Empty packet of soup mix into pot.
Add Jam.
Cook on low for 4-6 hours.
I don't even like meat especially red meat, especially roast, but I do like this!! I serve with baked potatoes, steamed carrots, salad and biscuits. You can also make a gravy with your left over juices. I will post that recipe later.
I did a double-take when I saw "Roast" in your recipes. If you ate it, and liked it I will definitely try it! LOL - M
