I think we all love easy slow cooked meals. It is so nice and convenient to put dinner in the crockpot early in the day and have it ready and waiting at 6:00.
One of my favorite slow cooked meals has always been roast. It is so easy to take an inexpensive roast and make it juicy and tender in the crockpot.
Roast is also one of the those things that you can often stretch for several meals. One easy meal can turn into two or three using the leftovers and that is always a good thing.

I love to cook and bake, and my family loves to eat. Lynn’s Kitchen Adventures is all about sharing my love of cooking, recipes, tips, and ideas of how I combine this cooking passion with a busy life. [
My favorite pot roast recipe is to brown the meat on all sides (sear). Place in crockpot. Dump one jar of jarred pepper (ie banana pepper rings or peppercini (spell). Cook for 6-8 hours on high. Shred and put in hoagie roll. Yummm. Simple recipe, but delicious.
I love the peppercini idea! Thanks I will try this real soon.
