Yankee Pot Roast Sandwiches  

Posted by Jeremy in , , ,


Open-faced pot roast sandwiches folks. That's what you're looking at. Plus some corn, and some brussel sprouts, and of course the veggies that cooked with the meat.

-4lb. bone-in chuck roast.
-2 14oz cans of beef broth.
-1 and a half cups grape juice.
-1 bag of baby carrots.
-3 cups chopped celery.
-1 medium onion, chopped.
-4 cloves garlic, minced.
-Flour, for dredging.
-Olive oil
-Cornstarch.
-Good bread.

So you dredge the pot roast in the flour. Then you take that roast and brown it in a pot with the heated olive oil. After its browned you dump in your veggies, and shortly after that you add your grape juice. Hey, about after that you add that beef broth you've been saving. Whatchoo waitin for anyway, christmas? So then you take all that, and you put it in the damn crock pot alright? That okay with you big shot? I'm sorry, I got carried away just now. We cool?

Okay then you let the thing go for like, I don't know, 6 hours. Get it in there and just walk away. That's right, you just walk away, got a problem with that? What? What are you supposed to do for 6 hours? Geez, I don't know, take a nap or something. Christ, what am I your day planner? Near the end of the cook time you can do your veggies. Weren't nothin special about these veggies, just frozen little guys boiled in some water. You want something fancy you cook it your own damn self. Hey, after your meat is good and cooked, you pull it right outta there and you let it rest. While you were nappin it was doing all the work alright? Give it a break. Hey, then you drain that cooking liquid, and skim all the fat off the top. You take that liquid and you add it to a sauce pan and you add some flour, or maybe a little cornstarch, I don't know what you like, and you stir the thing, and bring it to a boil. Add some salt and pepper while you're at it. When it reaches a boil, you reduce the heat, and you simmer till that baby gets nice and thick. There's your gravy. Then you take some meat, put it on your bread, we used these nice big rolls but you can use whatever crap you like, and then you hit it with the gravy. Load up some veggies, and wham, you got yourself some supper. Ring the bell.

Buffalo Chicken Tater Tot Casserole!  

Posted by Penfreak in , ,

I made this once before, back around the superbowl time. I took notes on how made it (as I was making it earlier this evening). So here's how I made it.

  • I preheated the oven to 425 degrees
  • Placed the tater tots in a cake pan(still frozen)
  • Once the oven was finished preheating, I placed the tater tots in the oven
  • While waiting for them to finish heating up I did the following:
  1. I heated up the chicken in the microwave.(I don't know exactly how much time. I just used the frozen food setting.)
  2. I grated some cheese.(doesn't matter what kind, but I used a combination of colby & pepperjack)
  3. And I made up a buffalo sauce for it.(All I did was mix some buffalo chicken wing sauce with ranch dressing. Just go until you've got an amount you're satisfied with, and a spice level you're content with, as well.)
  • It shouldn't take more than 20 minutes for the tater tots to well-heated
  • Once they're done, I did the following:
  1. Poured the sauce over the top of the tots & mixed until they soaked up the sauce.
  2. Put cheese over the top, and then let it sit in the oven(while it still had warmth to it) until it was nice and melted.
  3. After that, spread the chicken on over the top.
And with all that..........................it's done!!! Should look something like this:
