  1. HOW DO WE COOK A PEAMEAL ROAST IN A SLOWCOOKER? DO WE ADD WATER TO THE BOTTOM AND COOK IT FOR 6 HOURS?

  1. Five Stars. I made this for part of a Sunday brunch for a large number of cottagers and people were asking me for the recipe. I cooked this on the barbecue using indirect heat. I placed the roast on a foil pan on the "off' side of the grill and basted it frequently with the sauce. It took about an hour and 15 minutes. The roast sliced beautifully. A nice alternative to pan fried peameal and certainly much easier if you are cooking for a large number of people.
     
  2. I love peameal, but have never done anything but slice it and fry it up in a skillet. Hard to beat ... 'til now. I had a smaller roast, 2.5 lbs, but made the full amount of the sauce. In a covered cast iron braiser, I poured it over the peameal, coating all sides, then put in 8 small, peeled whole yams. I rolled them around in the sauce too. I put the lid on and baked for 1.5 hrs at 350, taking it out at half-hour intervals and basting again with that wonderful sauce. This treatment completely transformed the peameal. The sauce flavours were wonderful on meat and yams alike. The meat was unbelievably tender. I prepared this for my family, but would happily serve it to company. With a green veg or salad and maybe some dinner rolls, who could ask for more! Thanks for posting this one.
     
  3. This was amazing! I've used a similar recipe before, but for whatever reason, this combination makes the grade. It's so basic yet such a wonderful blend of flavours while hot and as a leftover. My husband said: "You can make this anytime..." Thanks for sharing! Michelle, Bellevile
     
  4. Excellent recipe. I wanted to try something different than just frying and this is a keeper. Thanks for a great recipe.
     
  5. The first time i made this was for Christmas breakfast in 2016. It was tender and juicy and it sliced like butter. It was a huge hit with everyone at the table and since then it is one of the most requested dishes for our special occasions. I will be making it again this Christmas morning.
