SLOW COOKER RED WINE POT ROAST WITH ORANGE CRANBERRY SAUCE

The holidays are in full swing and winter is arriving in Ohio. It is time for all kinds of comfort food to help us get through these cold months. I don’t know about you, but I think nothing says comfort food like a tender, juicy pot roast.

Today’s Slow Cooker Red Wine Pot Roast With Orange Cranberry Sauce would make a wonderful holiday meal for your get together.  A chuck roast is slow cooked with your favorite red wine, vegetable {or beef} broth, fresh herbs and vegetables to create the perfect meal.  A sweet, beautiful orange cranberry sauce accompanies the Slow Cooker Red Wine Pot Roast With Orange Cranberry Sauce and makes a great sauce to drizzle over the pot roast. Not only does it add beautiful color to the dish, it also adds wonderful flavor.

Today’s recipe is in partnership with The Ohio Beef Council to celebrate holidays roasts and share creative, festive ways to add roasts to your gatherings. Beef is the centerpiece of many holiday feasts for families across the country. Premium roasts, such as Ribeye, Rib and Tenderloin are very popular at holiday time. However, more economical roast choices – Round Tip, Top Sirloin and Eye Round – are also delicious holiday options.

The best gift you can give your body is a healthy diet. A 3-oz serving of beef provides 25 grams of protein and 10 essential nutrients, wrapped up in one tasty package. Big things often come in small packages. Aside from being a great source of protein, beef provides essential nutrients in a smaller package that some other proteins. For example, you would have to eat 8 ounces of chicken breast to get the same amount of iron as 3 ounces of beef.

I love sharing with you guys all about our Ohio beef farmers. They take care of their animals all year long, even on holidays and when the weather outside is frightful. Watch this short video to see how the Rittenhouses, beef farmers from New Carlsile, work to get their cows to a nearby pasture, where they can watch over them closely, as a winter storm approaches.

There are 17,000 beef farming families in Ohio, and 98 percent are family farms. Watch this video series from the Ohio Beef Council to see how Ohio beef farmers change their animal care routines as the weather gets colder.

As the holidays near add this mouthwatering Slow Cooker Red Wine Pot Roast with Orange Cranberry Sauce to the menu and impress your guests. It also makes a great weeknight meal that you can come home to after a long day!
