Sunday Roast

See this content in the original post

Even though the weather was GORGEOUS yesterday, I wanted to make something that felt like Sunday. Cozy, warm, easy, and makes our home smell like a home should smell! Since we got our 1/4 cow a few weeks ago, we now have a bunch of roasts in the freezer - WAHOO!

I love making a yummy pot roast and have been craving it since the fall but the only roasts we had on-hand were venison roasts. Which are totally delicious, but not as delicious as a beef roast. However, you can definitely swap the beef in this recipe out for venison!
