Seriously Delicious Pot Roastseriously Recipes

THE EASIEST AND BEST POT ROAST RECIPE EVER

Steps:

• Take the beef roast out of refrigerator and bring to room temperature, about 30 minutes, before cooking.
• Preheat oven to 325F/163C degrees. Heat oil in a large (5-7 quart), heavy dutch oven pot over medium high heat until hot. Place meat in pot and cook, without turning, until bottom is well browned. Using tongs, turn meat and brown on all sides.
• Push meat to the side of pan, add the onion, and lightly brown. Stir in the bay leaf and set the meat on top of the onion mixture.Scatter the potatoes and carrots around the meat. Sprinkle with salt and pepper.
• Cover the pot with a lid or foil and roast in oven for 30 minutes at 325F/163C degrees.
• Reduce temperature to 300F degrees and cook another 1 1/2 hours, or until tender. Serve immediately.

THE BEST POT ROAST

Steps:

• Sprinkle the roast with 3 tablespoons of the salt, rubbing into the grain and covering all sides. Wrap tightly in plastic wrap and refrigerate at least 3 hours and up to 3 days.
• Arrange a rack in the lower third of the oven and preheat to 275 degrees F.
• Heat 2 tablespoons of the oil in a large heavy pot or Dutch oven over high heat. Cook the meat, turning occasionally, until browned on all sides, 10 to 12 minutes. Transfer to a plate.
• Reduce the heat to medium-high and heat the remaining 4 tablespoons oil in the pot. Cook the onions and the remaining 1 tablespoon salt, stirring occasionally, until browned but not completely cooked through, 6 to 8 minutes (it's ok if the onion wedges break apart). Add the garlic and tomato paste and cook, stirring occasionally, until the paste is brick red and the garlic is fragrant, about 1 minute. Add the wine and bay leaves and cook, stirring occasionally and scraping the bottom of the pot, until slightly reduced and you can no longer smell the alcohol, about 4 minutes. Add the flour, stir to coat the onions and cook for 1 minute. Stir in the broth and pepper and bring to a boil.
• Nestle the meat and any accumulated juices into the onions. Arrange the carrots, celery and potatoes around the roast, pushing them into the onions and surrounding the beef. Cover and transfer to the oven. Cook until the meat is very tender but still holds its shape and is not falling apart, 3 to 3 1/2 hours. Let rest, covered, at least 45 minutes before serving.
• Transfer the roast to a cutting board and remove the twine with scissors, if necessary. Slice against the grain.
• Divide the vegetables among plates and arrange the sliced beef over top. Spoon sauce over the top garnish with parsley and chives.

DELICIOUS POT ROAST

• 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.
