i cant eat anything spicy,can i use something other the the peppers?
I’m not sure of a good substitute. Although I have never tried them, you could try cherry peppers or poblano – or you can omit the peppers completely if you prefer. It will alter the taste slightly, but it will still be delicious!
I love how juicy and moist this turns out! Thanks for the easy recipe!
Delicious pot roast, I’m always looking for an excuse to break out the slow cooker and this was the perfect dinner!
