Burnt on food is the number one reason that I used to avoid certain recipes. I didn’t want to face the tough job cleaning the pans. So often the recipes that are the yummiest dishes are also guaranteed to produce a burnt-on mess. It is just the way they are.
What kind of dishes? I am talking about pot roast, beef stew and brisket: three delicious tummy warming dinners that my family loves. But how I dreaded the clean up. Whether made in the oven or a crockpot, the cleaning chore ahead was inevitable -that is, until now!

Finally, I discovered the so simple cure. It is really a dream come true. What is it? Baking soda! Yes. Nothing fancy but you are going to love this.
I extolled the hidden virtues of baking soda some time ago in “15 Great Uses For Baking Soda” covering everything from insect bite treatment to a key ingredient in your child’s Erupting Volcano Science Fair Experiment – but this? How did I miss this?
