I'm probably not telling alot of guys on here anything they don't already know but I've been experimenting in cooking pot roast for the last 8 months or so and I think I have it dialed in now.
This is the recipe - a good marbled roast,put it in the crock pot, season it with lowrys on both sides, then add this
then throw in a bag of either frozen stew vegetables or italian mix vegetables, I prefer italian, and a can of small whole potatoes.
add about 2 cups of water and cook on low for about 6 hours, then turn to keep warm until you're ready to serve
damn, that makes a good pot roast, and the gravy or whatever you call it is like au jus - just dip a hard roll in it. I often just have bread and the gravy the next day for lunch.
also tonight my wife made fish tacos.We got some fresh salmon, cooked it in a mexican seasoning sauce, and she made a fish sauce out of buttermilk, ranch, jalapeno and a couple of other things, cut up cilantro, red cabbage, chives and throw in some cotija cheese
that was the best fish taco I've ever had - and I've eaten them in San Diego and Pasadena before. good stuff
