Dino's Slow Cooked Pot Roast.

ingredients:

2-3 lbs Shoulder roast or roast of choice
3-4 cups Beef stock (Yes you can use bouillon)
3 lbs Small Red potatoes
5-6 Large Carrots
1 Large White or Yellow Onion
1 Tbls Worstershire sauce
1 Tbls Garlic Salt
1 Tbls Dry Marjoram
1/2 Tbls Dry Basil
1/2 Tbls Dry Mustard
2 Packet Brown Gravy Mix

1 Tbls Bacon Grease or Cooking Oil
Salt and Pepper to taste

Preheat oven to 250 degrees. In large Dutch oven or cast iron pan heat bacon grease to smoking. Season roast with salt, pepper, and 1/2 Tbls of garlic salt. Brown the roast in bacon fat.(about 3-5 min per side) While roast is browning, wash and dry potatoes and carrots. Cut carrots in half. Cut potatos in half and set aside. Peel and rough cut onion(chopped to about 1 1/2 inch pieces) and set aside. Combine all other ingredients except the gravy mix. In large lasagna pan or high sided baking pan combine roast, vegetables, and stock mix. Stock should cover meat entirely. Cover dish with plastic wrap and then aluminum foil.

Slow cook roast in oven for 4-5 hours at 250 degree. Remove and let rest 10 minutes.

While roast rests, remove 2 cups of stock from dish. Take 1/2 cup cold water and mix with dry gravy mix. This will keep it from getting lumpy. Add to 2 cups of stock and heat in browning pan until thickened. Pour on top of roast and vegetables. Serve.

You good variation to this is to add 1 1/2 Tbls horseradish to stock mix before cooking.


Enjoy.
