Beef Roast with Belgian Beer & Onion Braising Base

YUMMY! I haven't had a pot roast similar meal in a long time and it was super good! Lately my husband and I have been SO busy I haven't had time to make any new dinners, so I'm glad today we got to try something different! We tried a new sauce we got as a gift (Thanks Meg), it turned out VERY good, I highly recommend it. 

Next time i think we may combine the beef, sauce, carrots, and potatoes all in one crock pot and eat it as a stew with some sourdough!
