Marinate Bake Beef Liver Apple Cider Vinegar

The secret behind what makes this beef pot roast so incredibly tender is low 'n' slow braising it in half apple cider and half beef broth.—coziest hands-off dinner EVER!

There's just something about a good beef pot roast that just always screams WINTER IS HERE.

Oh make no mistake about it, winter has alive and well in Wisconsin for over a month now. Alive and well in the sense that the cold air hurts my face when I'm walking to an early-morning class. And that I feel the need to consume hot coffee on an hourly basis. And the fact that my oven's currently almost always has gotta have a pot roast in it.

So I might have just made you the best beef pot roast of your life, guys. I mean it, ALL other recipes I've tried pale in comparison to this cozy food masterpiece. I feel the need to consume this for dinner every.dang. night.

P.S. no hating on my other collection of pot roast recipes whom I love dearly and you guys seem to enjoy too. This one today is just a little different.

Different in a really freaking good way, y'all. Here's how. —>>

• This beef pot roast is braised in freaking APPLE CIDER and yes, it's as amazing as appearances would suggest. I use a combo of half beef broth and half apple cider to slowly braise the beef and veggies in and the flavors are insane.
• It's cooked SUPER SLOW for over 3 hours and don't even try to speed up the cooking process because you won't get good results. The secret to the most fall-apart juicy pot roast with juicy meat and soft veggies is cooking it extremely slowly so that intense flavors are formed and everything gets tender.

Really just gaze at all that tender beef goodness up there. ^^^ Like my wildest dinner dreams. ??

Don't be afraid to heap your bowl high with this cozy dinner goodness because we waited a LONG time for this and we definitely deserve it. Still squealing over all that juicy tender-ness. ^^^ (!!!!)

Also. Leftovers would reheat fantastically in the rare astounding event that you would actually have any. But since we've probably accepted the fact that we won't…shall we get this pot roast party started??
