I love my covered Le Creuset to make this roast but you can also use any roasting pan with a lid or cover with foil. |
Ingredients:
- 3 to 4 lb. chuck roast
- salt and pepper
- 2 Tablespoons vegetable oil
- 6 carrots, peeled (keep whole)
- large onion, quartered
- 1 can cream of mushroom
- 1 envelope onion soup mix
- 1/2 cup water
Directions
- 1. Preheat oven to 300 degrees
- 2. Season roast on both sides with pepper and lightly with salt. Heat oil in a large skillet on high heat and sear each side of roast until nicely browned.
- 3. Place roast into a large roasting pan. Place carrots and onion around roast.
- 4. In a separate small bowl, combine the mushroom soup, water and onion soup mix. Mix well and pour over the roast.
- 5. Cover with lid or tightly with foil.
- 6. Bake at 300 degrees for 4 hours. No Peeking!
- 7. When done place roast, carrots and onions on platter and pour gravy in a gravy boat and serve with mashed potatoes.
Note: You can also add potatoes along with carrots and onions to roast before baking.
