Notes
- Store leftover pot roast in a food-safe storage container in the refrigerator for 3-4 days. Make sure it’s cooled off before loading it up!
- Easy entertaining tips and tricks:
- Substitutions:
- Peel and chop your veggies the night before! Place them in a food-safe storage container, and keep ‘em in the fridge overnight before tossing into the slow cooker first thing in the morning to make prep faster.
- Make a bigger roast for a bigger crowd. If you’re using a larger piece of meat, it might take longer to cook, so be sure to put it into the slow cooker with more than enough time to spare.
- Use the wine you’re going to drink in the recipe! Which means… choose a bottle that you like, use some of it in the recipe and drink some with the final dish.
- If you don’t have turnips or a parsnip, you can replace them with gold potatoes or sweet potatoes.
- If you don’t drink wine, use beef stock in its place.
