I'm too tired to write at night, but I can write blogs or market, or annoy my friends. :) We've had to do that consciously (cook for two nights) because during farming season, life's just to busy to get much time for cooking!Ruth Logan Hernehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11550734775151341968noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7945786327884906788.post-78364754710642719462015-10-15T19:44:38.497-04:002015-10-15T19:44:38.497-04:00JUDY!!!!!

It's such an ideal thing, it's big enough for two large chickens, a huge turkey, two big roasts and swimming room! :) Carol, yes, the worcestershire sauce is clutch in the sauce, and I don't measure, I just kind of pour in 1/3 of a bottle and it's like a 15 oz. bottle, so 5 oz is close to 1/3 cup. It makes all the difference!Ruth Logan Hernehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11550734775151341968noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7945786327884906788.post-49469576122755368482015-10-15T19:38:22.436-04:002015-10-15T19:38:22.436-04:00Hahahaha!

He hauled wood again today for me, for the second stack on the porch, and of course had to grab the bigger pieces and half-drag them up the walk to the porch.

But I also need a larger roasting pan. My turkey hangs over the edges of my old one...a very good reason to invest in one where that won't happen, and two pot roasts would have plenty of room to visit with lots of veggies.Carol Garvinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02182655399708415140noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7945786327884906788.post-85256299328552891882015-10-15T17:40:34.166-04:002015-10-15T17:40:34.166-04:00I was just going to question the amount of Worcest...I was just going to question the amount of Worcestershire. 1/3 *cup*??? Really??? As much as I like and use it often, I don't think I've ever used more than a tablespoon in anything. But you're obviously confirming the amount. And after cramming our turkey into my very average sized roaster for our Canadian Thanksgiving, I'm putting a large roaster on my wish list, too.

It&#...You shared the secret Pot Roast ingredient!!! It's the Worcestershire sauce that turns a ho-hum pot roast into ambrosia! <br /><br />And you've helped me solve a problem. Our family is in the process of growing - you know, when your adult children bring "friends" over for Sunday dinner? I've been using the biggest roasts in the freezer for just the six of us, but was in a quandary about what to do when there are nine or ten! Two roasts won't fit in the crock pot, and besides, even with one roast there isn't enough room for the veggies to get a good stewing/roasting/marinating.<br /><br />But the big roaster is the answer. I'm putting one on my Christmas list. Or maybe it's time to invest in one of those electric roasters before Thanksgiving so the oven space is freed up.<br /><br />Oh, the wonderful problems big families bring!<br /><br />And I love the adventures of the Mighty Finn that you share on Facebook. And the Princess is one beautiful baby. I've said it before: you are truly blessed. :)<br /><br />Jan Drexlerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05609332074458434806noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7945786327884906788.post-42180800133466550822015-10-15T10:57:11.077-04:002015-10-15T10:57:11.077-04:00You know, back in my carnivore days when I was gro...You know, back in my carnivore days when I was growing up we had pot roast every Sunday so this post kind of makes me nostalgic. :-) And love how the Mighty Finn is all about keeping the princess cozy.
