Comments

After about 2 hours, you might want to check the water level. If it seems to be getting dry, add another half cup of water to the bottom. You can pour it directly over the meat. This is basically basting, to ensure the meat will be moist.

You won't need to make side dishes with this. you have your meat, potatoes and veggies all in one pot!
