Italian-Style Pot Roast
Beefy This is my favorite Pot Roast recipe in the world. Tender and flavorful meat cooked with vegetables, wine tomatoes, herbs and spices. It’s comfort food at it’s best plus you can’t beat one pot meals.
You can either cook this in a slow cooker or in the oven or on top of the stove. Either way you’ll be pleased with the results. Chuck roast or shoulder roasts are usually tough cuts or meat so this slow cooking method works best to tenderize it.
Pot Roast is mainly a comforting winter recipe but it’s great once in a while during the spring and summertime. Italians love braising meat. Especially veal shanks and pork butts. Add this recipe to your favorites. Enjoy!
