Swedish Pot Roast - yummy!!

[malmq]

4 lbs. lean roast

1 tsp. nutmeg
1 tsp. cinnamon
1/2 tsp. ginger
1 tsp. salt
1/8 tsp. pepper

Mix & rub above ingredients well into roast on all sides.
Brown roast in small amount of your favorite oil again on all sides in your roasting pan. This method keeps the juices in the roast while cooking.

Mix & dissolve:

1 clove chopped garlic
4 bay leaves
1/2 cup red wine vinegar
1/2 cup water
the recipe calls for 1/2 cup brown sugar, which is a no-no I know-know, so use your favorite sweetener and adjust to its sweetness.....  hope this makes sense.....  I did find Splenda Brown Sugar Blend which could maybe be used in the amount of 1/4 cup.

Thick sliced onions.

Pour dissolved mixture over roast and add onions.   The onions should caramelize while cooking.

Cover and cook at 350 degrees for at least 3-4 hours, depending on the size of your roast.  It should be fork tender when done.

Just put this roast in the oven,,,, it smelled really good when I browned it with the yummy rub on it.  Anyone else tried it?

I have a similar recipe but it calls for 2 Tablespoons of honey instead of the brown sugar. The Splenda brown sugar has sugar in the ingredients so it's not LDL approved. By the way, if it taste like mine, it's VERY GOOD!

Wonder if you can substitute ACV for the red wine vinegar without changing the taste?

Thanks CQ, I will make a note of that and use honey the next time,,, I didn't use much, less than the 1/4 cup it called for...

Red Wine can be substituted for the vinegar.
