Another crock-pot question
So my basic recipe is this:
* open a small can of whole green chilies. Inside of each green chile , put a chunk of cream cheese, Close the pepper over the cream cheese as best you can. It doesn't have to be perfect.
* Lay out a flank steak, and score a diamond pattern with a sharp knife. Lay your stuffed chiles along the flank steak, roll the steak up, tie with string.
* Put stuffed flank steak in a crock-pot, cover with a jar of salsa verde, cook.
* When done, remove meat to cool, reduce sauce on the stove until saucy, and then finish off sauce with a dollop of sour cream.
Absolutely delicious, but looks like dog food. Very unappealing appearance. I thought about browning the meat before putting it in the crock-pot next time to give it some color. But then I was thinking, why not just actually cook the roast on the stove?
Flank steak is tough, but thats because of the grain. With this roast you're still cutting across the grain. Do you think it needs the long cook in the crock-pot? When I grill flank steak it does't grill long.....
