Here's one of my family favorites that will keep you warm on stormy cold days. Its one of these slow cooking meals and its aroma permeates the entire house.
Here's a recipe for a chuck roast, that works. It does a few hours but it will warm everyone in the house and get you through the dark cold days. Its a twist on a winter brisket meal.
Here's another family simmering from June Chua - Soy Sauce Chicken.
