Melt-in-Your-Mouth Pot Roast
One of my favorite things to make in the crockpot is Pot Roast. The reason is that it cooks low and slow and in the end, comes out very tender and full of flavor.
This also works great for a holiday meal, especially if you like to get up and enjoy your day rather than fussing in the kitchen with preparing meals. This melt-in-your-mouth pot roast will be a perfect addition to your holiday table or any other time you want that delicious piece of meat.
