It couldn't get any easier to get a meaty dinner on the table tonight. Toss everything in to your slow cooker and walk away until dinner time.
Pickles! For everyone who isn't cooking their pickles, you're missing out on some prickly awesomeness! Not only are those pickles going to make your roast taste amazing, their also going to make sure it's the most tender and juicy one ever!
I can see how many people might take one look at this recipe and think... OMG that is gross. I assure you.... it was amazing! For anyone that loves dill pickles, the flavors in an odd way really work with the beef. Its not too overpowering, its just the right amount of zing.
Not only does this taste amazing, but its a super easy dinner to make for your family. With a busy after school schedule with my kids, I need quick and easy meals that are not only nutritious but filling. This roast definitely ticks all the boxes for my family!
