Plum Pot Roast
"I'm not sure where I got this from but it is so delicious. I usually skip the browning step & just throw it in the slow cooker, the meat is so tender it flakes rather than slices, the sauce is to die for too."

I chose this recipe for PIC fall 2007. I got up and just through everything in the crock pot, mind you the meat was frozen and cooked look all day on low. This has to be one of my most favorites. Will be trying this again by adding carrots and potatoes to this. Thanks Mandy! -
Very flavorful - my family loved it! I think next time I will make this in the oven as mine was a bit tough from my crockpot - I think in the oven in a smaller dish it would be submerged in the piquid more and be more tender (more an issue with my cooking method - too big of a pot). GREAT flavor and we will DEFINITELY make it again!!!! Thanks for giving me a gravy combination I wouldn't have thought of before! YUM! ;) -
This was fantastic. If just melted in your mouth. The flavors went well together. I made it in my crockpot/slow cooker and it turned out great lots of sauce/gravy left over so I froze some in small containers so i could put it on steak at a later date. Thanks Mandy for a great recipe.

Melbourne I live on a 5 acre property in the Dandenong Ranges Victoria, Australia, having moved from the burbs when I became pregnant with my now 15 year old daughter Alyssa.
Once my daughter was born I became a stay at home mum as I couldn't bear the thought of putting her in daycare. She is the light of my life, I never imagined myself as a mum when younger but now wouldn't have it any other way. Alyssa was made a big sister on the 19th April 2010 when our cheeky little boy Blake was born. I love cooking and experimenting with new recipes so quickly become addicted to Zaar as it was previously known & still use it regularly. In addition to being my kids taxi :lol: I also spend my time, reading, gardening and of course shopping. I'm lucky enough that we have the space & so love growing our own fruits, vegies & herbs, this also means we have plenty of room for animals & at the moment have 2 dogs, Max, a Jackshund who's 6, Fletcher, a Kelpie who's 4, 6 cats Snowpea, Fergus, Ginger, Tango, Annie & Cookie, 4 chooks & 2 Ducks.
As well as our pets, we also have a lot of native animals around our area, we have kangaroos, wombats, echidna's, possums as well as rosella's, galah's & Cockatoo's hence the name of where I live..
