I'm cooking a pot roast

[mrsmaalox]

I'm wanting to do something a little different than my usual. What do you all usually do with yours?

[JoeChalupa]

I eat it.

[JoeChalupa]

Seriously, I pretty much keep it traditional. potato, carrots, celery, onions. I also use about 5 garlic gloves and some thyme. I also use some red wine.

I don't like pot roast. Did you buy the meat already? If not, you should make a brisquit instead.

It's already half cooked. I don't have good luck with brisket.

I am a Vegetarian and I find this topic highly offensive now you know why I stop posting here!

My mom used to always make a Sicilian pot roast -- brown and cook as normal, but then let it simmer in sauce (homemade, of course) for a couple of hours and serve with pasta.

I think i've seen Rachel Ray make one like that. She also served it with polenta.

Are you going to use a bag? I need more details please!

No it's in a slow cooker, not a crock pot. (Are you really the Pot Roast King?)

I do almost the same except I use 1 can of Coke instead of the red wine and I don't use thyme. I love my crock pot.

Add a pack of Lipton's onion soup mix.

[Evan]

In the crock pot
1 cup of breef broth
2 cans of cream of mushroom soup (I hate mushrooms but this works real well)
1 packet of lipton soup mix
Mix it

Pot Roast
Trim it of excess fat
Salt & Pepper then braise it (meaning fry it real fast on each side in a pan to seal in the flavor)

Put in the crockpot on low for 6 to 8 hours. When there is about 1 hour left I dump in a can of mixed veggies.

It will be so tender you can cut it with a spoon.

Easy and the best you have ever had.

Costs maybe $20 to do all of this.

[JoeChalupa]

No veggies?

Oops, never mind.

This isn't too salty? I love mushroom soup....

I've never tried it that way.

[Evan]

I use low sodium cream of mushroom soup.

[mrsmaalox]

Oops, never mind.

I will definitely add veggies. I have taters, turnips, onions, carrots, celery, mushrooms and artichokes. Not sure which I'll add yet.

[Evan]

I edited it back in there. I feel like a caveman if I don't add veggies.

water chessnuts work well too.

Never thought of artichokes. I will do that next time.

[AZLouis]

I throw in some veggies, peas, corn, carrots, squash, onions, and then I shred the roast.

Place over white bread top with brown gravy and have veggies on the side.

[lebomb]

I brown boneless pork ribs in the skillet, cover the bottom of the crock pot with onions, place the ribs on top, cover the top of the ribs with onions, salt and pepper.......cover with BBQ sauce.....cook on low 8-10hrs......some dayum good eatin my friend.

:tu I'd go with this receipe

That's how I was taught to cook Pot Roast and it's really good.

[mrsmaalox]

All these idea sound yummy; I'm gonna haveto try them all eventually. Lebomb I'll bet I could do a pork shoulder your way and have some great pulled pork sandwiches.

[peewee's lovechild]

Take one raccoon, one onion, 4 cloves of garlic, 1 cup of chopped celery, 2 lbs of potatoes and chicken broth.

Season with salt, pepper, cayenne, and a touch of nutmeg.

Slow cook for 4 hours and serve.

That's a cajun feast.

Raccoon? I thought they only made decent fajitas. I probably won't try either.......

I don't even like Pot Roast, and this thread is making me hungry.

http://www.ocmexfood.com/images/carnitaslavilla3.jpgThat doesn't look like carnitas.

[CubanMustGo]

1. Cook the pot roast.
2. Throw it out and let the dogs eat it.
3. Whomp up some BBQ brisket instead.

[peewee's lovechild]

That is NOT carnitas.

That is some abortion called "beef carnitas" they make here in SA.

It basically "carne asada" all cut up.

It tastes nothing like carnitas.

[Twisted_Dawg]

At 7:45 AM, I pour two cans of beef bullion in a crock pot, add potatoes, carrots, celery and the pot roast. Add seasonings to include oregano. Cook on low heat. Then when I come home in the evening I have dinner for three already made.

[SpursWoman]

I make mine fairly similarly to everyone else, but I sear the roast first seasoned with salt, pepper, garlic & rosemary in a little olive oil ... and since no one in my house likes potatoes or carrots cooked that way, I just add a bunch of mushrooms to it and make rice & a salad. :spin

[Fillmoe]

I've never seen that. I guess because you called it an abortion means it doesn't taste good?

[marini martini]

I gained 20 lbs. today, thanks to this thread!

[ploto]

As a child, we had pot roast every Sunday. Have not eaten it since and have had no desire.

[tlongII]

Pot roast is usually too dry in my opinion.
