It's time for a better chow site on the site. Most of my other projects have degenerated to chores. But cooking on the other hand is taking off.

Pot Roast by Sox inspired by Sub Station 2

---

If you've ever had a Sub Station cheese steak, you will know that they keep the meat soaking in something that can only me considered the juice from a pot roast. The meat itself, tastes like pot roast. I totally dig it. Anyhow, the other day I decided to make a pot roast so that Bree could have something tasty for dinner. I ended up checking out recipezaar and getting some good ideas on what makes a pot roast work. I broke it down to what you see here. Jul and others helped me try it out. Everyone seemed pretty happy with it. I liked it and was especially happy with how easy it was to make and clean up. Just wash the crock pot and you're done!
