Marinated Paleo Pot Roast

With the days getting shorter and the evenings getting cooler, it feels like fall is just around the corner. With fall approaching, it put me in the mood for pot roast. I think it just seems like a cozy comfort food, and a bonus for me—it’s one of my husband’s favorite meals.

My family’s favorite dish

Growing up, my mom made Marinated Pot Roast often, because our family loved it. It was probably one of our favorite dishes that Mom would make. I remember she would always make extra, because if our friends knew we were having pot roast, they would show up for dinner.

Creating a Paleo version of pot roast

Since I love this particular pot roast recipe, I have made some Paleo modifications. As I mentioned in My Fitness Journey, I try to incorporate Paleo into my diet as often as I can.

The original recipe uses soy sauce and brown sugar, which I have substituted with coconut aminos and coconut sugar. The recipe does call for Worcestershire sauce, which many do not consider Paleo. However, it only uses one tablespoon, which doesn’t bother me. If you would rather stick with a Paleo version of Worcestershire sauce, this online recipe is great.

Making the Pot Roast

This pot roast recipe is so simple, because all you do is mix together coconut aminos, red wine vinegar, coconut sugar, lemon juice, Worcestershire sauce, and garlic powder. Pour the marinade over the roast and refrigerate for 24 hours, then cook for two hours.

When I cook the pot roast, I add white sweet potatoes and carrots. I like the white sweet potatoes much more than orange sweet potatoes, because they are not quite as sweet, and I like the texture better. We also try to stay away from starchy white potatoes as much as possible, so the white sweet potato is a great alternative. Just make sure they cook for only about an hour, or they will end up as mush.

This roast is full of flavor with a little bit of savory and a little bit of sweetness. The roast needs to marinate for 24 hours, but it makes a very tender pot roast. I have marinated the roast for only a few hours before, and it was still good. It just seems like the roast is more flavorful if you marinate it for the full 24 hours.
