For all you folks out there who say you don't have time to cook, this one's for you. All you need to do is to dump things in a slow cooker, turn on the heat and go away for the day - or even just half a day, if your slow cooker has a high setting. You'll walk in the door to a great aroma and meat that's fork tender and flavorful. My dad and his wife prepared this for me recently and even though it strays from my Italian-centric posts, it was so delicious I had to share.
Serve with noodles, or potatoes or rice.
