WOW! This was a huge save. A couple nights before I had cooked this roast for hours nice and slow, but near the end I got a headache, and the baby needed nursed so I had the hubby take over (who doesn’t really cook). Sooo the entire dinner got burnt to shreds, and I was so bummed.
At the end of the meal I gave the dog all the extreme roasted veggies (she’s old and it was a treat to get people food), and went to work shredding the roasted beef, and cutting off the very top layer which was very burnt. I put it in the fridge to figure out what in the heck I was going to do with all this basically inedible meat.
Looking on line I saw a bunch of Italian crockpot beef recipes so I whipped up my own version, and a prayer for the ‘new’ dinner I was making.
Recipe:
-1 small roast shredded up
-3tbls Italian spice mix (I make my own using this recipe) https://www.pinterest.com/pin/559572322441665442/
-1/2 cup Italian dressing (I think the Olive Garden really made it)
-enough water drizzled on to keep it hydrated
Cook low and slow until it’s nice and bubbly and the seasonings are soaked in well.
I shredded up a some mozzarella off a block and added some on some homemade rolls I made for this. The girls said no thank you but the boys were ALL about this sandwich.
You could also easy enough add all this into a crockpot and cook on low for 6-8 hours, and shred it, then mix it all up. I think it would work just as well.
I’m just so glad we found a new recipe for second day roast!
Here is an awesome recipe for easy homemade rolls. These are fail proof and I make them ALL the time. https://thestayathomechef.com/the-best-homemade-dinner-rolls-ever/
Till then God Bless and Enjoy!
