Tender Pot Roast Recipes

TENDER POT ROAST

Steps:

• Pre heat oven to 300 degrees.
• Season roast with salt and pepper on all sides.
• In a large dutch oven heat oil, over a medium high heat, do not allow to smoke.
• Brown meat on all sides in dutch oven, this should take about 10 minutes.
• If at any time the oil starts to smoke remove from heat, lower the temperature and continue cooking.
• Once browned remove meat from pot and place on a deep plate (to catch the juices).
• Add vegetables to dutch oven, stirring often, cook until lightly browned and tender.
• Add garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute.
• Add stock, bring to a boil and stir/scrape until all the brown bits are removed from the bottom of the pan.
• Add red wine and sugar. Allow to boil until alcohol smell is gone, put thyme, meat and accumulated juices back in pan.
• Add water until liquid comes halfway up sides of the meat.
• Bring to a simmer, cover with a large piece of foil and the pan lid (to assure seal).
• Place in oven, be sure to turn the meat over every 30 minutes or so.
• Cook until fork tender, 2 1/2- 3 1/2 hours (meat needs to remain above 200 degrees F. for 30 minutes).
• Remove meat from pan onto serving plate, cover with foil.
• Place dutch oven back on stove; boil till liquid is reduced to 1 1/2 cups or so (about 15 mins).

POT ROAST - MOST TENDER EVER

Steps:

• Pre heat oven to 300 degrees.
• Season roast with salt and pepper on all sides.
• In a large dutch oven with lid off for now, heat the oil over a medium high heat, do not allow to smoke. Brown meat on all sides in dutch oven, this should take about 10 minutes.
• If at any time the oil starts to smoke remove from heat, lower the temperature and continue cooking.
