WHAT TO EAT WITH POT ROAST RECIPES

Steps:

• In a large skillet, brown meat on all sides in hot oil over medium-high heat. Remove from heat and set aside.
• In a 3 1/2- or 4-quart slow cooker, combine carrot, celery, onion, garlic and bay leaf (see Tip). Top with meat. In a medium bowl combine broth, wine, tapioca, Italian seasoning, tomato paste, garlic powder, pepper, dry mustard, paprika and salt. Pour over meat in cooker.
• Cover and cook on low-heat setting for 10 to 12 hours or on high-heat setting for 5 to 6 hours.
• To serve, transfer meat to a serving platter. Remove vegetables with a slotted spoon. Remove and discard bay leaf. Skim fat from remaining sauce; drizzle sauce over meat and vegetables. If desired, serve with mashed potatoes.

Steps:

• Use a roasting pan somewhat larger than the roast. Place roast in pan, and place under broiler about 4 inches from heat. Broil to brown top. Switch oven setting from broil to bake, preheat to 300°.
• Arrange carrots, celery, onion, and cauliflower florets around roast. Combine soup mix, beef broth, and water in a jar and shake well. Pour over roast and vegetables. Cover roaster with lid or heavy aluminum foil.
• Roast for 2 to 2 ½ hours or until meat thermometer inserted in thickest part of roast measures 155° (or 140° for medium rare). Remove roast to serving platter and surround with vegetables. Re-cover with foil and let rest 10 minutes.
• Use the drippings from roaster with enough water to prepare gravy mix according to package directions. Serve roast and vegetables with gravy.
