This is a great sauce – I mixed it up, poured it over a beef roast, and let the slow cooker take care of the rest.
Time to prep slow cooker: 2 minutes.
Served with some baked sweet potatoes.
Time to prep potatoes to bake: 2 minutes.
And some steamed green beans from the garden (they keep coming and coming and coming…)
Time to prep: 5 minutes.
Seriously, a very hands off meal to prepare! Just needs time in the slow cooker and in the oven!
(Oh, and the other half of the beef roast went into the freezer!)
