5. I don't care for pot roast anymore. Yeah, I'm a philistine

:D

Have a few bad roasts and you'll never want to have one again.

[ulysses]

6. damn, I'm sorry.

[jpgray]

20. Yes, it's a great tragedy. :-)

I made up for it tonight with my famous cajun pasta--the sauce only simmers for 2 hours, but it still has that time-honed goodness.

12. Best remedy for a bad pot roast: marinate it and rub it with herbs

and slow cook it with carrots, parsnips, garlic and onions

:P

7. you serving veggies with that?

if so then i'll come.

if not, well, your loss :P

[ulysses]

8. just a salad and bread for this one

Onions, potatoes and carrots in with the meat, but I'm guessing that'd still leave you out. ;-) Ms U has been a little stressed and depressed lately and my pot roast is comfort food.

[buddhamama]

10. ahhhh, aren't you the sweetest !

yeah, no meat contamination is allowed, too bad `cause i love roasted potatoes :-(

just as well...

you two have yourselves a wonderful evening.

11. "comfort food" That's the first thing I thought of

when I saw the subject line.
It sho is.
So is fried chicken with mashed taters and gravy.

13. I love pot roast!

I rarely eat red meat, but a nice pot roast is so comforting. I brown the roast, then slather it in horseradish sauce. I cook at a low temp for 2-3 hours in beef or mushroom broth with some red wine. In the broth I also roast some shallots, carrots and potatoes and sometimes mushrooms. Slice up the beef, serve the veggies on the side with a heaping spoonful of the broth gravy, and a nice hunk of bread to dip. I eat everything but the potatoes first, then mash them all up in the gravy. Yum!!

14. i make my pot roast in the crock pot

covered in a jar of horseradish sauce, red wine, beef broth and the veggies you mentioned.

mine cooks for at least 8 hours

oh, i add bay leaves and garlic

by the time dinner is ready, it takes a SPOON to get it out - its THAT tender!

:D

wanna come over and keep me warm? :D

:*

17. Ms U prefers a more tomatoey sauce.

Good bit of red wine and beef stock in it as well. Garlic, peas, a few wild mushrooms, more garlic. There's a lot of pot liquor, it's almost a stew.

15. We're having Nana's chicken

Pound four boneless chicken breats. Cover with four slices of alpine light swiss chesse. Cover this with (mixed) a can of cream of chicken soup and a cup of sour cream. Spread this topping on top of the cheese. Drizzle with 1/2 cup of light margarine. Top with 1/2 cup bread crumbs. Bake at 350 degrees 45-minutes. Service with rice and broccoli. You can low cal, low fat the daylights out of the dish and it still tastes great.:)

16. Y'all are makin me hungry!!

[prole_for_peace]

18. i had a handful of almonds and

19. I'm having my soy burgers. Lot healthier than pot roast.

[ulysses]

21. eat right, exercise and die anyway.

;-) Just kidding. I have a lot of respect for vegetarians and I've had some pretty good soy burgers. We don't eat a lot of meat any more (relatively speaking - you wouldn't believe the diet on which Ms Uly was raised) but sometimes, especially when it's cold or it's that time of the month (iron - yeah I know, but try getting her to eat enough spinach), it's gotta be meat.
