Beef, it's whats for dinner...

Well tonights dinner is just that BEEF!  no one can say Where's The Beef?" tonight...I have been slow cooking this brisket all day it is yummy and fork tender...as you can see it also has roasted vegies...which were delicious...I also made mint scented rice infused with cilantro...

Before I get to telling you how I made it I have to apologize I am not feeling up to par so one picture tonight and not a whole lot of wit...

This is going to sound a little tricky as to how I made the roast...Every time I make one in the slow cooker I always use carrots potatoes onions and a whole lot of seasonings...but I have learned now to save the left over gravy and freeze it for the next time i make a roast...so yummy perfectly flavored beef stock and then I tweak it here and there adding stuff like a bay leaf and some salt and pepper cause I also add more water tot he slow cooker with fresh vegies...YUM!!!!  Well it was cooking for almost 8 hours on low so it is juicy as can be and melts on your tongue!!  YAY!!!!

The rice I made like I said was mint scented cilantro infused rice very good  what I did was use mint water...instead of regular water I took some fresh mint and let it soak over night in a pitcher of water...YUMMY!  Then while cooking I added salt pepper garlic and cilantro DELICIOUS!!

The roasted vegies are a California Mix...broccoli, cauliflower, and carrots...I added onion and fresh garlic and lots of herbs rosemary thyme savory and poured a little e.v.o.o, in my 13x9 non-stick dish and roasted them on 300 for about a hour came out PERFECT!

Well you guys I hope you are feeling better then me but I did eat so that is a plus!  Hang in there tomorrow will be just as good if not better...HUGS from me to you and remember...Until next time...

Peace Love and Chicken Grease!
