CHUCK WAGON ROAST WITH VEGETABLES

I got this recipe out of the 1989 All American Brand Name Cook Book, my mother in law gave to me as a Christmas gift the year before I married her son. This is an amazing roast. It tastes delicious! I did change the cooking instructions over the years as my way makes for a much more tender roast. This recipe also works nicely...

CHUCKWAGON CARROTS

The addition of crisp bacon to the carrots gives a nice lightly smoked favor. It has been a favorite with my family for many years. It originated in the "Treasury of Country Recipes" published by Land O Lakes about 15 years ago. Even people who don't normally eat carrots love this dish! You can easily double the recipe for a potluck dish. If you want to decrease the fat, just substitute light margarine and turkey bacon.

2 Tbsp green onions, sliced
1 Tbsp brown sugar, packed

1/8 tsp pepper

Steps:

Tips:

  • Choose the right carrots: For the best flavor and texture, choose carrots that are firm, smooth, and deep orange in color. Avoid carrots that are limp, wrinkled, or have brown spots.
  • Wash the carrots thoroughly: Scrub the carrots well under running water to remove any dirt or debris. You can also peel the carrots if desired, but this is not necessary.
  • Cut the carrots into even-sized pieces: This will help them cook evenly. If the carrots are different sizes, the smaller pieces will cook faster than the larger pieces.
  • Use a large skillet or Dutch oven: This will give the carrots plenty of room to cook and prevent them from overcrowding.
  • Add some flavorings: To enhance the flavor of the carrots, you can add a variety of seasonings, such as salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, or dried herbs.
  • Cook the carrots until they are tender: Depending on the size and thickness of the carrots, this will take about 10-15 minutes. The carrots should be tender when pierced with a fork, but still slightly firm.
  • Serve the carrots immediately: Chuck wagon carrots are best served hot. You can enjoy them on their own or as a side dish with your favorite meal.
