CEDAR RAPIDS, Iowa (KCRG) – I’ve got another great weeknight meal for you that is going to transform an affordable chuck roast into comfort food at its finest.

A creamy Secret Sauce that adds just the right tangy finish. Let’s go!
Now, we’re using a chuck roast, which is a rather inexpensive cut but don’t let that fool you, you’re going to get all those great nutrients and a delicious tender bite. Beef roast gives you protein, iron, zinc, and B vitamins. The key is how you prep it- we’re going low and slow to make it nice and tender.
