Simply the Best Pot Roast
- Ready In:
- 3hrs 15mins
- Ingredients:
- 6
- Yields:
-
1 Pot Roast
- Serves:
- 4
ingredients
- 3 lbs chuck roast
- 1 sweet onion, Quartered
- 1⁄2 lb fresh mushrooms, sliced (I used canned)
- 1 tablespoon oil
- salt & pepper, to taste
- 1⁄2 cup water
directions
- Preheat oven to 325 degrees.
- Heat oil on medium high in dutch oven. Sear both sides of roast to desired brown.
- Sprinkle with salt & pepper on both sides of roast.
- Add onions, mushrooms & water. Depending on size of the roast and the dutch oven, you'll need about 1/2 cup of water. You want to make sure that the water does not cover the roast. But you do want the water to cover the bottom of the dutch oven.
- Place the covered dutch oven in the oven for 2-1/2 hours. Check the roast for doneness and put back in if more time is needed. Because the dutch oven is covered, anticipate a shorter cook time than if the roast is uncovered.
