Family Favorite Pot Roast

This roast takes a long time in the oven, but only a few minutes to prep. The jar of KICK! has most of the flavor you need to make this, and lots of other meals, truly delicious. You just combine the sauce ingredients, pour it over the roast, and you’re done until dinner time! You’ll have plenty of delicious sauce for the meat and also to spoon over potatoes, noodles or rice.

 

• 3.5 lb Chuck Roast
• 1 cup KICK!
• 1 cup sour cream
• 3/4 cup red wine
• 1 medium onion, roughly chopped
• 1/4 cup flour
• 2 tsp kosher salt
• 3/4 tsp black pepper

Preheat the oven to 350

Place the roast in a roasting pan that is about 2-3 inches high.

Combine all other ingredients, and pour over the roast.

Cover the pan tightly with foil (tent it a bit over the meat), and bake for 3 ½ hours.

Slice and enjoy!

 

Sloppy Joe

This is a fast prep dinner, and so much better than the sloppy joe mixes that are filled with sugar and food starches. Serve on your favorite buns and feel free to be creative by adding any toppings you want. I like thinly sliced kosher dills on mine, and my son likes cheese on his.

(Makes 4 sandwiches)

• 1 lb lean hamburger
• 2 tsp olive oil
• 1/4 cup chopped onion
• 1/4 cup chopped pepper (any color)
• 3/4 KICK!

Put the olive oil into a heavy skillet on medium heat.

Add the onions & peppers, and cook until soft, about 5-6 minutes.

Add the hamburger, breaking up and stirring until cooked.

Add the KICK!

Heat 1-2 more minutes and serve on buns
