Delicious Pot Roast Recipes

PERFECT POT ROAST

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 275 degrees F.
• Generously salt and pepper the chuck roast.
• Heat the olive oil in large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add the halved onions to the pot, browning them on both sides. Remove the onions to a plate.
• Throw the carrots into the same very hot pot and toss them around a bit until slightly browned, about a minute or so. Reserve the carrots with the onions.
• If needed, add a bit more olive oil to the very hot pot. Place the meat in the pot and sear it for about a minute on all sides until it is nice and brown all over. Remove the roast to a plate.
• With the burner still on high, use either red wine or beef broth (about 1 cup) to deglaze the pot, scraping the bottom with a whisk. Place the roast back into the pot and add enough beef stock to cover the meat halfway.
• Add in the onions and the carrots, along with the fresh herbs.
• Put the lid on, then roast for 3 hours for a 3-pound roast. For a 4 to 5-pound roast, plan on 4 hours. The roast is ready when it's fall-apart tender.

DELICIOUS POT ROAST

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F.
• Rub roast with black pepper.
• Heat olive oil in a heavy flameproof casserole or Dutch oven and sear roast for several minutes on each side, browning well.
• Pour in stock and wine and add parsley, 1-teaspoon salt, 1-teaspoon black pepper and the whole cloves.
• Stir in onions, carrots, potatoes, tomatoes and celery.
• Liquid in casserole should just cover vegetables. Add additional beef stock if necessary.
• Bring to a simmer on top of the stove, cover and bake in center of oven for 2 ½ hours.
• Uncover and cook longer, until meat is tender, about 1-½ hours, basting frequently.
• Transfer roast to a deep serving platter and arrange vegetables around it.
• Spoon a bit of sauce over all and garnish the platter with parsley.
• Pass additional sauce in a gravy boat.

SERIOUSLY DELICIOUS POT ROAST...SERIOUSLY!!!!!

Steps:

• Heat a large skillet on medium high.
• Combine flour and grill seasoning in a large bowl.
• Coat Chuck Roast with flour mixture, shake off any excess.
• Place Chuck Roast in skillet and sear/brown all 4 sides, 3 minutes each side.
• While meat is searing: Mix Lipton Onion soup mix, mushrooms, onion and chicken broth (or water) in the crockpot. This will become the gravy of the dish. It does not look like much now, but the water from the mushrooms and cooking process WILL make a nice gravy!
• When Chuck Roast is seared/browned on all sides add to crockpot and coat with the mushroom mixture.
• Set crockpot to low for 6 hours. I would not recommend doing this on high for half the time. It does not come out as tender.

DELICIOUS SLOW-COOKED BEEF POT ROAST

Steps:

• Set oven to 350 degrees F (will reduce oven temperature later).
• Make small slits all over the roast then insert a garlic clove in each slit (make as many slits and use as many cloves as desired).
• Season the roast with black pepper.
• Grease a roasting pan.
• Layer the sliced onions (if using) and garlic into the bottom of the pan, then place the roast on top.
• In a medium bowl combine the brown gravy mix with water mixing into a smooth paste, then add in the onion soup mix, mushroom soup, minced garlic, cola beverage and Worcestershire sauce; mix well to combine.
• Pour the cola mixture over the roast.
• Cover and cook at 350 degrees F for about 1 hour.
• Uncover and place the carrots and potatoes around the roast.
• Reduce the oven temperature to 275 degrees F and continue cooking covered for another 2 hours.
• Remove from oven and turn the roast over, place back in oven for another 1-2 hours or until roast is tender (could take longer than 2 hours, as you are cooking at a low temperature).
• Let the roast stand for 20 minutes before slicing.
