Personally, I like cooking my pot roast as long as I can. It makes the meats and flavors blend better. The longer it’s cooked, the more tender your meat will be and your veggies will be softer. You can also use cubed stew, instead of the chuck roast, so if you can’t find the perfect size meat, then that’s a good alternative. This is something that you can throw together in the morning and let it sit in your crock pot all day while you’re at work or school. This can be served with cornbread, if you are a corn bread fan or something as simple as a salad. You can also add whatever veggies you want! My family likes to mix it up every once in a while, so we’ve added onions, cauliflower, mushrooms, or corn. You can play around with colors of foods to make it look more aesthetically pleasing to the eye. If you want more flavor in your stew, you can purchase the stew flavor packets at the grocery store or you can add spices like, parsley, oregano, onion powder, garlic powder, or brown sugar to make it sweeter! This is a good meal to have for family gatherings or if it’s a cold day outside.
