No one died, or threw up, and I think it is safe to safe it was a success! It wasn't as tender as I had hope it would be, but I kinda have an idea of what I could do differently next time.

Pot Roast
I am in charge, which means I must provide food for all four of my brothers. This can be quite testy because they are rather picky when it comes to "real food". I enjoy cooking and except the challenge of avoiding their starvation.
They eat spaghetti, which is pretty easy, so I made a good bit and froze it. Tonight--roast! Oh, yes, I am attempting to make a very large chunk of meat be edible. Hopefully they won't throw up or something. You are supposed to cook it for 5-6 hours on high, or 10-12 (whoa) hours on low. I have heard that the meat will be more tender if it's cooked slowly, but I didn't put an exorbitant amount of brain work into the planning of timing and having it fully cooked by dinner time cook. To have cooked it slowly, I would have had to put it in the crock pot last night, but since I didn't, I had to take the speedy route. 5-6 hours on high.
