ingredients
directions
- Wash raw roast, then sprinkle with 1/2 tsp salt and rub with flour. Sear in olive oil, browning roast on all sides. It's okay that a little may stick to the bottom of the pan. Cover with lid and reduce heat; simmer for 4 hours or until very tender. No need to add any liquid, as the roast will produce its own.
- Add potatoes, then layer in carrots and onions. Sprinkle vegetables with between 1/4 tsp to 1/2 tsp salt. Continue to simmer for 1 additional hour, or until vegetables are tender.

I admit I had my doubts, especially with no added liquids. But my roasts lately haven't turned out so great, so I figured it was worth a try. Turned out to be the most tender roast I've ever made (I had an inside round), literally falling apart when I took it out of the pot. I'll always make my pot roasts like this now!
