One time a gentleman said he's taking shea butter capsules that are supposed to help with arthritis. I've not seen him again.....not sure how they did for him! _________________________ Southwest Body Gear here ~ NEWLY updated website with many new products!

DJ Member Registered: 11/22/02 Posts: 1149 Loc: Ohio	I also do a simple pot roast, and I work. And I love to cook. Like Anne, I get a 3ish pound boneless chuck or shoulder roast, rub with garlic, dip in flour, brown on all sides in olive oil (to seal in the juices), then put in a dutch oven (a cast iron pot with a lid) with a whole onion stuck with 3 cloves, 1-2 carrots sliced, 5-6 whole potatoes (I like the Yukon gold), 2 cups of boiling water and a bay leaf and bake at 320 for at least 3-4 hours. Or all day in a crock pot. Cooking long at low heat makes it fork tender. Actually, you could cut it with a spoon. My whole family goes nuts for this meal. _________________________ http://dcvance.wordpress.com/

These kinds of dishes are not only delicious and relatively easy to make, they're healthy too! And I can't believe the number of times I've had friends try to wrangle a dinner invitation out of me when they hear it is pot roast night! It's a simple dish that always brings raves from anyone I feed it to. Oh, I do make a nice simple and tasty gravy from the pot juices, but even that isn't too unhealthy! _________________________ Boomer in Chief of Boomer Women Speak and the National Association of Baby Boomer Women. www.nabbw.com www.boomerwomenspeak.com www.boomerlifestyle.com www.boomerco.com

Di Member Registered: 11/15/05 Posts: 2798 Loc: NM, transplant from NJ	Update: I went to a butcher today and told him I'm clueless when it comes to purchasing the right roast. So, I now have a 3 1/2 lb brisket in my freezer...it cost $11...is that a good price? He said to put in in a turkey oven bag on 350* for about 3 1/2 hrs. Says it'll be so tender. I'll try it next week......yummers! _________________________ Southwest Body Gear here ~ NEWLY updated website with many new products!

Anne Holmes Boomer in Chief Registered: 03/11/10 Posts: 3212 Loc: Illinois	I'd say that's a good cut for a roast and the price is fine. I haven't tried making a roast in one of those turkey bags, but based on his suggestion, I'm sure it will work great! Where did you get the idea to do a beef roast in one of those turkey roasting bags? That's a new one for me - but I'm sure it will work. _________________________ Boomer in Chief of Boomer Women Speak and the National Association of Baby Boomer Women. www.nabbw.com www.boomerwomenspeak.com www.boomerlifestyle.com www.boomerco.com

Di Member Registered: 11/15/05 Posts: 2798 Loc: NM, transplant from NJ	I remember my mother doing that many years ago....she used to do London Broil in them. The nice thing is, since I have a shrink wrap system in the soap shop, I can get two bags out of one. I can cut/seal it with the I-Bar! The folks whose house we went for Christmas did their turkey in the bag....talk about GOOD!!!! Moist, tasty etc. _________________________ Southwest Body Gear here ~ NEWLY updated website with many new products!

chatty lady Writer Registered: 02/24/04 Posts: 20267 Loc: Nevada	I showed my newly married grandson how to use a cooking bag for his Christmas turkey and it was wonderful. Everyone complimented his cooking and he was thrilled. I use the bags for roasts of all kinds as well! _________________________ Take a peek at my BLOG: http://charleen-micheles.blogspot.com/

Anne Holmes Boomer in Chief Registered: 03/11/10 Posts: 3212 Loc: Illinois	As far as I'm concerned, one of the biggest benefits of cooking in a bag is that the oven stays a lot cleaner. But while I have cooked turkeys in one of these bags, I have never tried them with any other cut of meat. _________________________ Boomer in Chief of Boomer Women Speak and the National Association of Baby Boomer Women. www.nabbw.com www.boomerwomenspeak.com www.boomerlifestyle.com www.boomerco.com
