“Have you ever seen such beauty in a piece of meat?! Prolly not. Honestly, I think I may have officially found our favorite pot roast recipe. No, joke. It’s all in the marinade. The balsamic-vinegar-seasonings-concoction is truly scrumptious, you’ll want to pick up the bowl and slurp it up.”
I agree that it’s all in the marinade. You can have all the control with regards to the taste of your meat through the marinade. And this balsamic pot roast has the most flavorful marinade that everyone will surely appreciate!
