I absolutely love using my crock pot during the Fall & Winter! It is a lifesaver for me. I work outside of the home part time, and the last thing I want to do is make dinner right when I walk in the door!
I created this crock pot recipe on a whim this morning before work, since I had bought a roast at the grocery store a few days ago. This roast literally falls apart and the flavor is absolutely delish! I will definitely be making this all season long. I like to serve this with my parmesan garlic mashed potatoes. I hope you enjoy!
