Beer Braised Pot Roast with Mashed Potatoes
Our Ranch of the Month DD Ranch raises premium grass-fed beef and hearty potatoes, so this month, our recipe of the month is a pot roast using
chuck roast, with mashed potatoes on the side. The chuck section comes from the shoulder area of the cow, a hard working section of the animal.
