Directions

First, dice up a whole white onion and saute in a pan with 1 tablespoon of butter and a pinch of salt. Next, remove the crust from 2 slices of day old bread bread, and soak it in half and half for 10 minutes. When the onions are translucent, remove them from heat and let them cool. Next, remove the seeds and chop up 1 jalapeno pepper. Then peel and mince 2 cloves of garlic. Using your hands, shred the bread and pour out excess milk. Add the onions, egg, meats, seasonings, chopped garlic and jalapeno. Hand mix the contents of the bowl. Next, remove the seeds from another jalapeno pepper and cut into slices. Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in saute pan, then saute the jalapeno slices for 2 to 4 minutes. Once they start to brown, remove the jalapenos from pan and set them aside. Next preheat your oven to 250 degrees. Next, form meatballs by rolling meat into small balls. Make enough meatballs to fill the frying pan, then continue to make more. Cook the meatballs 8 minutes then flip to the other side. After another 8 minutes, brown them on all sides in the pan. As the meatballs finish cooking, transfer them from the pan to a cookie sheet. After cooking all meatballs, place the cookie sheet of meatballs into the oven for at least 10 minutes. Add more butter to the frying pan iff needed and set the heat to low. Add flour and whisk until brown about 2 minutes. Slowly add beef broth, then the heavy whipping cream. Salt and pepper to taste. Add jalapeno slices and meatballs then let simmer for 5 minutes. Serve with mashed potatoes and smother everything with gravy!

We added a special touch to the usual recipe by seasoning and grilling the beef chuck roast for a quick sear on the meat. And nothing could go better with pot roast than mashed potatoes. We will cover mashed potatoes in separate recipes to follow.

Ingredients

  • 2 cups baby carrots
  • 3 garlic cloves
  • 2 green onions
  • 3 stalks celery

Directions

First, season the beef chuck roast with Worcestershire sauce and Everglades seasoning on both sides. Place the roast on a pre-heated grill on medium temperature. Grill the roast for 5 minutes on each side, then remove the roast from the grill.


Next, chop and break apart 2 yellow onions and add to the crock pot.


Next, chop 3 celery stalks, 2 green onions and 2 cups of baby carrots and add to the crock pot.


Next mince 3 garlic cloves and add to the crock pot.


Add the can of beef broth, salt, pepper, and thyme to the crock pot. Stir the contents of the crock pot to evenly mix up the vegetables.


Next add the beef roast on top of the vegetables. Add 2 tablespoons of Worcestershire and season again with Everglades seasoning.


Next, place the lid on the crock pot and set the cooking time for 8 hours. After 8 hours, use a fork and knife to break apart the chuck roast into smaller bite sized parts. As an optional step, you can add flour or corn starch to the crock pot 1 tablespoon at a time. Stir the crock pot until the contents thickens. You may need to add up to 3 tablespoons before the gravy has a decent thickness. Spoon yourself out a healthy sized portion of pot roast and add to your mashed potato side dish and enjoy!
