Looking for easy pot roast recipe you cook in the oven??!
Answers: I don't have a crock-pot or slow cooker, so I have to cook it in the oven. Anyone have any good recipes I can try?
Put the veggies in with your pot roast and sprinkle a package of dry french onion soup mix over the whole thing.
cover with foil and roast in a 350 oven for 2 1/2 hours or until it is as tender as you like.
It makes its own gravy and is delicious.
get a cook-in bag
there is a recipe on the flier inside
use the ingredients that you like
brown the meat on the outside before you put it in the bag with the vegetables and a can of mushroom soup.
excellent flavor, very tender, easy cleanup
Pot Roast Recipe Ingredient Choices
Pick one of the two
Pot Roast Ingredients #1:
Large Potatoes, cut in half
Carrots
Garlic Salt
Fennel Seeds
This one has a slight "spice" taste. The fennel seeds really bring out the juices of the slow cooked meat. An easy pot roast recipe which I make the most, simply because I always have the ingredients on hand.
Pot Roast Ingredients #2:
Large Potatoes, cut in half
Sliced Onion
Onion Salt
Garlic Powder
In this easy pot roast recipe, instead of carrots and fennel seeds I use onion. It's got a similar taste to the first recipe, except for more of an onion flavor.
Pot Roast Recipe Directions
For each easy pot roast recipe above, the directions of my roasts are all the same. I choose to cook mine in the oven. I find it easier to cook in the oven because of the size of the roast and the ability to put in additional ingredients as listed above.
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 325*
2. Place meat in roaster, stab with knife to allow juices to cook threw meat. Add all other ingredients.
3. Fill with about half water (pot roast should be covered with water)
4. Cook for 4-5 hours, checking every hour or so, and flipping roast over.
There's lots of room for creativity with an easy pot roast recipe for the oven. Try out different vegetables from the garden like green beans, squash, and other slow cooker vegetables. I'm always ready to try a new easy pot roast recipe that taste good, so pass your recipes on if you have them!
Pot Roast...is really just a method...a braising method....which loosely means cooked low and slow with some type of "braising" liquid...get a boneless (cheaper cut) beef roast...rump, bottom round or preferably chuck....season with s & P (salt and pepper)....get your skillet good and hot..(I'd go the dutch oven route but you didn't mention if you had one)...so...brown roast in skillet on all sides...preheat oven...say 300....in a sauce pan combine onion soup mix and water...bring to simmer...shut off...add roast to roasting pan...add liquid...cover with lid if you have one if not then just use tin foil tightly wrapped....maybe 2 1/2 to 3 hrs...depending on size...normal size 3 1/2 to 4 lbs...thicken gravy with a slurry of 2 Tbs corn starch and enough water to make it a milk like consistency...whisk into simmering liquid....some potatoes...green beans...it's a good meal...hope this helps
Sure.
It's called Beginners Pot Roast
Salt and pepper the roast and brown it in a little oil on all sides. Place it in a large pot that can go in the oven, add a can of cream of mushroom soup, a pack of brown gravy mix, some finely chopped onions, a bell pepper, celery, and a cup and a half of water to it. Cover it tightly and let it bake for an hour an a half at 350. Then add peeled small potatoes and a bag of baby carrots to it and bake for another 45 minutes.
OVEN POT ROAST
Roast
Dry onion soup mix
1 can undiluted mushroom soup
Place raw, unbrowned roast in foil. Sprinkle 1/2 package of dry onion soup mix over the roast. Spread 1 can of undiluted mushroom soup over that.
Seal the foil completely around the roast and put it in the oven for the length of time you usually do. Undiluted celery soup may be substituted for the mushroom soup.
I skip the foil and just put it in a covered pot.
