Rebecka’s Sunday Roast

Sunday Pot Roast Recipe

There’s nothing more evocative than the smell of Sunday roast…  

I can’t be the only one who feels a sense of comfort in the unctuous smell of cooking pot roast.

In my opinion, there’s nothing more evocative than the smell of Sunday roast. It jolts my food memories into overdrive: My Mom’s Sunday roasts, family time with my father and brothers, a meal cooked with love — this is what food memories are made of. 

fyi50+ Magazine

This is my second recipe installation for Dallas fyi50+ Magazine a Senior Life Magazine committed too inspiring, informing, and entertaining the 50+ audience. I’m honored to host the recipe column each month in this incredibly informative publication.

For Best Results

Be sure to use a good drinking wine when making the recipe. Remember: If you wouldn’t drink it, don’t cook with it! I use a delicious Bordeaux that I also serve with the meal. 

For a non-alcoholic version, omit the wine and double the beef stock measurements.

2 bay leaf

4 tablespoons minced garlic

water just to cover ingredients

1/4 cup chopped flat-leaf parsley
