Super Deluxe Pot Roast

"This came from a Southern Living cookbook that I have had forever but I have tweaked it just a bit. I love the flavors and how tender the roast gets. I put this on around 11 a.m. on Sunday's during football season and let it simmer all day until game time. I typically serve it over steamed white rice. Several times I have served it over a mushroom cous cous and it was fantastic!"

directions

  • Make small slits in top of roast. Insert a garlic slice into each slit, this and the kitchen bouquet is what is responsible for so much of the flavor. Rub roast with salt and pepper and use the 1/2 teaspoon of kitchen bouquet (a browning aid found near marinades in the grocery store) by pouring a little in the palm of your hand and gently patting it all over the roast. Be careful, a little of this goes a long way. Dredge in flour. Brown roast on all sides in dutch oven with hot oil. Add onion and wine.
  • While this browns and the onions saute, combine tomato sauce and next five ingredients, stir well and then pour over roast. Pour in beef broth, stir well and bring to a boil. Place tied herbs in broth, cover, reduce heat and simmer for 2 hours without lifting lid. After two hours turn roast and cook another 30-45 minutes. Add potatoes and vegetables (I always put in turnips too b/c I like them and have added everything from broccoli to cauliflower, mushrooms and bell peppers) Simmer one more hour or until roast and vegetable are tender to your liking.

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

Although hardly your traditional southern girl, I come from a huge southern family and have been cooking since I was eight years old. Cooking is more then a hobby, I genuinely get so much pleasure from cooking and providing the people I love with great food. I have to attest, that it truly IS the way to a man's heart! In my opinion, there is nothing more admirable to hold then the truest essence of a homemaker, or as the term is coined today "household engineer"! I am a licensed real estate agent working full-time from home and a soccer mom to my 9 year old son. I am a busy bee but somehow find time to indulge in some of my many passions: dancing, photography, sewing and interior design. Finding that perfect balance is what I strive to do everyday and so far so good. Happy Cooking<img src="http://i250.photobucket.com/albums/gg271/MrsTeny/Permanent%20Collection/PACSpring09Iwasadopted.jpg"><img src="http://i80.photobucket.com/albums/j166/ZaarNicksMom/PACsticker-Adopted.jpg">
