I just love my crockpot and my crockpot loved this!! I used Madera port in this plus a 14 ounce can of tomato sauce. It was terrific. The sauce was abundant and great. I froze the left over sauce for either a rice or noodle topping later. The roast was simply demolished. I seemed to have an Audrey recipy night didn't I?? Glad I did too. Thank you again.
