#3: New Brunswick Slider

Zoe’s Take:

9.5/10

This was a really good slider that I was not actually expecting. The idea of using a ‘pot roast’ as slider meat seemed a little off to me at first. I’m so happy that I was wrong. Everything about these sliders was just SO GOOD. So why didn’t I give it a 10/10? Two reasons. The first reason is that it takes at least 5 hours to make between slow cooking the roast and making the sauce. The second reason is that I felt it needed something. Since I’m really into spicy and hot, I decided to switch out the pickled vegetables on top for my homemade candied jalapeno peppers. For me, that REALLY helped step the slider up to perfection. I definitely recommend you make this slider ASAP.

This is my favorite recipe out of the cookbook so far! I’m kicking myself for not trying this at Epcot. The recipe for the pot roast is relatively basic. I decided to use my crockpot instead of a dutch oven. The sauce was really good too, I love Chinese mustard….which is basically Dijon mustard and horseradish. The lightly pickled vegetables added a great crunch to the sandwich. This recipe lost points on complexity. Similar to Zoe I felt it was a bit long to make the pot roast. Especially when considering the final product. For example, some roast beef would have been just as good and taken far less time. Overall great recipe!
