Pot Roast in the Slow Cooker

Family Friendly Meals Series—Day 11

This one is a no brainer. It's both easy-peasy to cook, and the reason I have no photos is that my family ate it all so quickly that it's all gone. No lie!

Put a pot roast in your slow cooker with the beer from a bottle of Long Trail IPA. Turn it on low and walk away. Let it cook for the 8-9 hours you are at work. When you get home, throw a pound of wide egg noodles on the stove top, and toss together a salad. The pot roast shreds easily (I hand removed the fatty parts of the meat so my kids weren't grossed out) and I served it over the noodles with a little bit of the juice from the crock pot. It will definitely need salt; you can add it while it is cooking or season to taste based on the dietary needs of your family.

Enjoy!
