This succulent, easy dinner idea for Sweet and Savory Roast Recipe is so good! It will be added to my list of recipes to make again. I had picked up a roast on manger’s special at Krogers and wanted to make it different. Of course I used my slow cooker and combined simple ingredients from my pantry. I was using the same roast ingredients such as salt, pepper, garlic powder and minced onion, but then I decided to add some sweetness by adding brown sugar. Boy am I glad I did because it made the roast so yummy. I also added some butter slices on top of the meat to make it tender and well I just think butter makes everything better.

I’ll admit I just threw everything in the crockpot and added a 1/4 cup of water. Turned it on low and headed to the pool for the day with my kids. When I got home, my house smelled heavenly to walk into. The meat of the roast just fell apart and was so juicy and tender. I love being able to just throw together a few ingredients and letting the slow cooker do all of the hard work for me while I am busy and on the go.
