Country Pot Roast

For Sunday or any day
Here in the South, a country pot roast is one of the few dishes that’s guaranteed each week. Just ask my children! For a tender roast, the key is cooking it long and slow. Plus, you should find the seasonings readily available in your pantry. The flavor is outstanding, and as an added benefit, my browning method for this roast will leave your stove free of grease splatters.
