So, for dinner last night, I tried a new recipe. I have had this one pinned on pinterest for a long time and finally remembered to try it. It was really good. Generally, anything with balsamic vinegar is a big hit for me! I would probably do a few things differently next time I make it, though.
1. In her recipe, she says to cook on low in the crockpot for 6-8 hours. Mine cooked for about 7 hours and the top part of it really dried out, which is uncommon for crockpot meats. I think what I maybe would do is turn the roast halfway through cooking so each half gets a turn to sit in the juices. :) We'll see if that works a little better!
2. I would probably make a bigger batch of the glaze. The glaze was definitely delicious and since I served my roast with rice, I felt like I wanted more sauce to cover some of the rice. I don't think I would quite double it since that would seem like a ton, but maybe make it at about 1.5 times the original size.
But nonetheless, it was delicious and I will definitely make it again! Here is the link:

I might just have to try this on Sunday! Yum! :)
ReplyDeleteI cooked nearly the same thing from jamiecooksitup.com. We loved it. I doubled the sauce which worked a lot better.
ReplyDeleteYeah, I definitely needed more of that delicious sauce! :)
ReplyDeleteI just made this for Sunday dinner & it was DELICIOUS!! I didn't have the sage for the rub so I just used an Italian Seasoning mix and then I doubled the sauce to serve over rice. Huge hit!! YUMMY! Thanks for the recommendation Beck!
