Crockpot roast

[sufficientforme]

This is a yummy roast for the crock pot

3-4lb roast (this is good with beef or pork)
3 slices of bacon cut into 1 in pieces (use scissors)
8 cloves of garlic 6 of them quartered and the rest mashed slightly with a knife
1-2 tsp. of sea salt
1/4 c olive oil
1 tablespoon smokey paprika (I use less)
1/4 c chopped parsley
1 tsp oregano (or to taste)
1/2 tsp thyme (or to taste)
1 tablespoon red wine vinegar

Using a knife slit deep holes in the meat, insert the garlic and bacon. (so yummy I promise)
mash garlic and salt together first, then add paprika, parsley, olive oil, and vinegar.
rub this over the meat
put in the crock pot and cook on low for 7-10 hrs or until done.
If you like you can add 1/2 glass of red wine an hour before the roast is done ( I have not done this)

Sounds great! What is and where do you find "smoky paprika"?

I found it at my grocery store, or I have seen it at marshalls or a tjmaxx usually carries it. If you cannot find it just use regular, but its not quite the same. Also penzeys spice online has it, and I am sure there are others.

I've never heard of "smokey paprika". What is it?

quoted from the internet:
Smoked Paprika [pimenton], made in Spain from smoked, ground pimiento peppers and often referred to as simply smoked paprika can be found in varying intensities from sweet and mild (dulce) bittersweet medium hot (agridulce) and hot (picante).

This paprika is not the relatively bland stuff you get at the local supermarket. It's more a cousin to traditional Hungarian paprika. What makes all of these varieties distinct is the deep smoky flavor they share.
