About a month ago, Mr. A Southern Soul and I along with 3 other families banded together and purchased a cow. Honestly, it’s kinda awkward saying that and just doesn’t quite sound right but anyway, you know what I mean. After several emails with details like how thick we wanted our steaks cut and did we want bones, we came up with a plan. I got our freezer ready, then, just waited until our farmer called with a delivery date.
I had no idea what to expect but kept an open mind since the 2 main reasons we decided to do this was price and quality of meat. The day finally arrived and we loaded up our freezer and I started planning what to cook. Friends, I am SO HAPPY with our purchase. Every piece of meat that I’ve cooked has been delicious!

One of my families new favorite recipes is a braised chuck roast made with onions, garlic, beef stock and peppadew peppers. The peppers give the beef a mild, spicy flavor that is enhanced with rich juices made from braising. This easy recipe could also be made in the crock pot.

I’ve served this roast with my cheese grits casserole and a fresh salad. If you live in the Piedmont Triad area of North Carolina, here’s the link to where you can purchase beef along with other locally grown food from my farmer friend.

  1. This was such a nice change to the Mississippi Pot Roast dish. We love that too, but I wanted to use up a jar of Peppadews I had.

  2. Could you remove the solids or puree with an immersion blender to make a more substantial sauce or gravy from the juices? I wanted to serve with roasted garlic mashed potatoes, along with a veg and green salad. Thanks Donya! I’m in Charlotte and love every one of your recipes I’ve tried. Keep ’em comin!

    1. Hey there Dawn!
      Thank you so much for your kind words, I am so happy to hear you’ve been enjoying the recipes! If you want to wanted to make a sauce from the drippings, I would remove the roast and then blend the liquid with the peppers, if you want a thicker sauce add all the peppers and if you want a thin sauce just add a few. After you blend the peppers and drippings, I would strain it with a cheese cloth to remove any chunks, then let it simmer over a medium low heat to thicken it up a bit. I hope this helps, let me know how it turns out, I hope you enjoy!

    1. Brenda,
      If you follow the link in the post, you’ll see where we bought out beef. It’s really great.
      Thanks for stopping by!

  3. We always talk about ordering some beef from a local farmer this way. We just need to find someone to split it with us first.

    1. We were the same. It worked out for us that 3 other families were interested. I am shocked at how great the beef is. It sure does make planning for dinner much easier – I just shop my freezer!Thanks for stopping by.
