I like the simplicity of this recipe. There’s a reason why pot roast has earned such an iconic reputation. It’s easy, flavorful, soft like butter, and optimizes comfort food. This freezes really well too.

Ingredients

  • 1 onion, chopped

  • 2 celery stalks, diced

  • 2 carrots, diced

  • 4 cloves garlic cloves, crushed or 4 cubes Gefen Frozen Garlic

  • 2 teaspoons salt

  • 1/2 teaspoon black peppercorns
