Two Roasts and a Crock Pot

[Bugbear]

The other day there was a sale on meat, so I filled my freezer. I didn't have room for two roasts... So early this morning, I plopped them into a crock pot and dumped in a bunch of seasonings and spices.

They cooked for hours and hours and hours!

Oh, so-----good; almost like corn beef. I ended up eating half of a roast because it was just too tender and tasty. I didn't think to get potatoes and all that stuff to throw in there, but I do have a bunch of beef stock now for soups and rice etc.

And just where did you say you live? Just how long would it take me to get there?

I had hot wings for dinner, but I would never pass up a good roast from the crock pot. How could you forget tatters and onions and carrots?

I so love slow cooked meat.

I know! I know! I should have all the fixings from my garden, but I've been having to move the gardens to a different side of the cottage... The flow of the Chi has been disrupted back there.

I do have an abundence of garlic, though.

It's a necessary sin.

That reminds me it's been a long time since I've made a roast. Now I'm hungry again.

I think one was a rump roast, and the other was chuck.

The rump was about a third fat, and all the flavor is trapped in there.

Well I have an 8lb pork picnic that's going on the BBQ Saturday morning for a long slow smokey roast. Can you say North Carolina Pig Pickin'?

I did the same... except instead of two roasts it was two pigs. Gotta love Florida and a healthy wild pig population.

All of this slow cooking talk gives me ideas for next weekend. Maybe some quality time with the smoker and some small batch scottish ale!
