piedmont pot roast
(1 rating)
This good old standard version of pot roast never had a recipe name until we began living in Virginia's Piedmont. That's when I got creative and decided to include it in our cook book! At Valley Green Naturals, we always look to source our product ingredients and foods locally whenever possible. Using grass-fed beef from local farms is a healthier and eco-friendly alternative to factory-farmed meats. You can find local beef and produce in your area by plugging in your zip code at www.LocalHarvest.org I like to serve this dish with organic garlic mashed potatoes and buttered fresh peas.
