Day 2: Crock Pot Beef


This was a super easy recipe!! I LOVE throwing things in a crock pot & coming home from work & it's ready to eat.

Since I have to leave for work on Wednesday at 6am...yes 6...AM. I did most of the putting together the night before.

I started by putting a crock pot liner in the pot (that's for Mr. J since he does dishes if I cook), then added a frozen chuck roast.

The original recipe calls for pouring the broth & soup over the roast than mixing it together....but that is a little difficult with frozen meat. So I combined all the liquids & onion soup mix in a bowl & poured it over the roast.

The last & most surprising ingredient was the peppers & juice! I chopped off the stems & throw the peppers & juice in with the other ingredients.



Put the lid on & stuck it on the fridge. That way in the early morning am all I have to do is put it in the crock pot & turn it on!

11 hours...yes you read that right 11 hrs later it was ready to go. I shredded the beef & put it back in the juices while I got the rest ready. I served it on kaiser rolls that I toasted under the broiler topped in provolone cheese. With a side au ju for dipping.



Mr. J & Little T both loved it!! I enjoyed it as well...there is enough left over for lunch tomorrow. Hooray...my favorite!

I rate this one a 4. It was easy...only took about 10 mins to put together & 10 minutes to prep for serving. It was really tasty & the peppers gave it a deliciously different taste. The only thing I might do different it sauté for onions & green peppers to add on top.
