The Best Recipe For Crockpot Roast

By Masil Nosacki

We all need simple dinner ideas and using the crockpot is the best method for such. Preparing this easy crockpot roast recipe first thing in the morning for a slow simmer throughout the day is my idea of the perfect Sunday meal.

I choose to purchase pork roast as I can always find a 3-5 lb. pork roast on sale for less than $5. This recipe calls for simple ingredients that are probably right in your pantry. No need to cut potatoes and vegetables, just add a side of white rice topped with the juice from the pork roast and your family meal on a budget is complete.

If you want the traditional crockpot roast with potatoes and veggies then just simply add 3-4 cut up potatoes,2 large carrots cup up and 2 stalks of celery. Of course what you add is optional and that's the best part of cooking in the crock pot, you can add whatever you want.

Prep Time: 5 minutes Cook Time: high for 1 hour then low for 5-7 hours

Meal Ingredients:

* 1/2 cup of water * 1/2 cup of sugar * 1 cup soy sauce * 3 cloves of garlic * 2 TBS. Accent * 1 pork roast (3-5 lbs.)

Meal Directions:

1. Put pork roast in crock pot. 2. Cover with all ingredients. 3. Cook on high for 1 hour then simmer all day. 4. Relax and enjoy time with the family until dinner is done.

Serves 4-6. Serve juice over white rice. Add a dinner salad and some fresh rolls for the perfect easy crock pot meal that you set and forget so you can just relax and spend time with the family. - 15634
