New England Pot Roast
This recipe is a family favorite which is cooked on the stove top using a large pot with a tight seal or a cast iron dutch oven. (Yes, there are good uses for the cast iron!) The horseradish results in a flavor that turns out quite mild and delicious and the beef is fall-apart tender. Your mouth will be watering for hours as you smell this dish cooking and cooking. You have to get an early start on this one if you plan to have it for the night's supper because the cooking time is a bit lengthy....a great Saturday project!
