Was nice seeing a few friends last night. Good to laugh & hear others laugh. Stayed up later than usual though so I’m dragging a bit this morning. Got the roast seared off & in the crock pot.
Oh boy. 4 more hours of cooking in the crock pot and already smells so good in here. I guess I ought to eat some food.
Just had a taste of the roast and it resulted in a coughing fit. SO spicy. Added a little brown sugar to calm it down a little. Yikes. BF will probably like it though.
As usual dinner is ready almost an hour before BF will get home from work. One of these days I get the timing right/better.
Waiting until he gets home to eat so we can eat together.

Brown sugar does that? Interesting
@BlueWatermelon775 yep, sugar can counter spiciness and make it less intense
Huh. It just occurred to me that I doubled all the spices in the recipe except the brown sugar. So technically I didn’t add extra. Yay, Meal saved.
