Life is Good; I Found My Drunken Meatballs and Roast Recipes
I accidently deleted my drunken meatball receipe from the computer by cutting and pasting. I searched and searched. Life is good; I found the recipe, and I am going to share it with you. The meatball recipe is a version of Dottie Becker’s but I changed it around. You probably dont’t remember her from TV; that was long ago. The Drunken Pot Roast recipe I have made for years and years. Well, I am no that old.
Drunken Meatballs-That’s a Meatball!
1/3 c. of brown sugar
1/3 c. of ketchup
1/2 of Bourbon or Brandy
1 1/2 dozen frozen meatballs.
Combine the first three ingredients and simmer it over the stove for 5 minutes until it is well blended. Add the meatballs and simmer, covered for about 45 minutes. Enjoy the meatballs!

My Drunken Pot Roast Receipe-I Sure Love This Roast!
4 pound pot roast
3 cloves of garlic, minced
4 T. of butter or olive oil
salt
flour
1 sliced yellow onion or red
12 whole peppercorns
12 whole allspice
2 bay leaves, fresh is best
1 T. of horseradish
1 cup of sweet red wine, maybe a little more
1/2 c. of water
Sliced potatoes, celery, carrots , onions as desired
Rub the roast with salt, flour on both sides and brown in the butter (or olive oil) in a fry pan. Layer the roast in the crock pot with all the rest of the ingredients. Add everyting else and cook for el numero hours. When it falls apart from the wine and over cooking, you’ll know it is done. Maybe 6 hours.
