Pot Roast

Pot Roast is one of the easiest things to do. We've used pork and beef in the past and they're both delicious, though pork roasts seem to have more flavor. Tonight, I used a boston butt roast. You will need a crock pot for this recipe and if you don't have one, drop what you're doing and go get one. The roast just falls apart, which again isn't all that pretty, but the taste is so good. We serve this meal with chef hat rolls (aren't those good with just about anything?) and lots of A-1 sauce.
