How to Make the Perfect Pot Roast | Allrecipes

[@rubytice5798]

Made this so many times with her recipe. Never changing it ever! The best hands down pot roast ever! Since it’s only salt, you can taste how good the beef is. Of course I’ll never say I got it on KZbin. Passing it down like a grandma recipe. Sorry that’s how good it is! 😂

[@nickmarek]

Just made this Pot Roast today. Used Dry Red Pinot Noir and my slurry was flour and beef broth. This dish was incredible!!! Can’t wait to make it again! Thank you!!!

[@BURTONizAjerK]

I just made it tonight. 10/10, easy and delicious, now I have lunch all week. Thank you so much ❤️.

[@barbryll8596]

My mom used to make this for Sunday dinner. Probably one of my favorite "one pot" meals.

[@malafunkshun8086]

In my family, we don’t use flour or corn starch, but instead use Worcestershire sauce and beef broth to make a rich sauce. We also insert pieces of garlic into the roast and sometimes use garlic powder along with salt and pepper. The idea is to make sure the meat is well seasoned and the sauce full of flavor. The carrots also help add flavor, along with mini bell peppers and celery. The potatoes of course are also there. And being good Pacific Islanders, we also have a freshly cooked pot of rice on the side, along with soy sauce. 😉 I also like this version of pot roast, however. Mahalo for sharing! 😊🤙🏼

[@graciethankful4643]

I really like your recipe. Being Meditarrian descent we use tons of garlic. I put garlic into pork chicken believe this or not our steelcut oats raw. It is so good and healthy. I like your idea better. 🙂

[@Kindlyone777]

Ooooh yes I do it just like that too because I want it to come in it’s own gravy straight out of the oven. I don’t add potatoes with the roast because I serve it over a bed of mashed potatoes. 😋. I sear the roast with flour all over it this helps make a thicker gravy. Oh man it’s sooo yummy. Thank you 😊

[@millsykooksy4863]

❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@Sook995]

Malafunkshun808 sounds salty

[@maxmeh2342]

Worcestershire and Beef broth will flavor your sauce, but they won't thicken it. You need some kind of starch to thicken it. You can use flour in the beginning and make a roux, or you can do as this cook showed and use a cornstarch slurry to thicken at the end.

[@johndough8219]

Another way to thicken the sauce is to add a beurre manié which is just 1/1 butter and flour mixed into a paste. I keep a bag of them shaped into balls in the freezer just in case I have this exact situation and I need a quick thickener.

[@cecedubois5147]

Do you make them up yourself and freeze them?

[@Wewhosee-im3ii]

Thats a good idea! But i think searing the meat with flour on the outside gives it more flavor!

[@turbojon8117]

@@Wewhosee-im3ii She did sear it with flour on the outside. Her sauce was still water thin at the end of cooking. Did you miss all that when watching the video?

[@Viviancanderson]

My mom taught me the corn starch and water slurry trick also. For me, pot roast must have the holy trinity: onions, carrots and celery!

[@judithfleser3703]

That’s a cool idea!!! I squeeze lemons and freeze the juice in 2 oz popsicles. I’ll have to try your idea! Thanks

This is the best presentation on the pot roast schedule. It is clearly narrated by this beautiful young lady. She gives the basic recipe that everybody uses, but includes the eternal possibilities that people take with this old time recipe. Congratulations! This is the best!

[@angiereddick8986]

Making this right now. I don't have fresh thyme and used dried thyme instead. Hope that's ok. I didn't have long carrots, but a million thick baby carrots so using those with white potatoes. I hope all works out. Should be done by 5:30pm eastern time today. 😊 Thanks for the recipe!!

[@Lilliancooks]

How did it turn out?

[@dougimlach1037]

Cream or broth wouldn't thicken it but corn flour will it's a fail for me .

[@P1xelat3d89]

Usually when substituting fresh herbs with dry herbs, you only use about half as much in the recipe. Hopefully you realized that otherwise your pot roast may have tasted overwhelmingly like thyme and nothing else!

[@WilliamPatrick-u2y]

Been cooking for about 45 years and I have made pot roast and seen others make their version of this wonderful dish. I enjoyed this video. I just like to see how others are doing their thing! Anyway this is a classic and I thought she did a really good job. It wasn’t overly long or complicated. The chuck roast cooks up tender and delicious. One thing I want to mention, while she did touch on the slurry, for those that enjoy more gravy beef broth or Au jus can be blended with the roast juices/gravy and and thickened to the desired consistency along with salty and savor flavors if needed. The blending with the cooked juices keeps adding additional salt to a minimum. Nice video and simply spot on!!

[@guszepeda3595]

This recipe beats out many high end chef’s recipes that are on here on KZbin! Great job!

[@rochelleholmes9271]

@@christophersteward5720 I used a 3 lb chuck roast and took off 1/2 hr cooking time. It came out good but it didn't fall apart. Did I need more cooking time?

[@christophersteward5720]

@@rochelleholmes9271 I cook mine for 4 hours on high in the crockpot. Or 8 hours on low. If you use the oven 300-350 for about 4 hours should be good. I'm making one right now and has about an hour left. I'll let you know how it turns out. I use the McCormack pot roast packet with about half a packet of aujus seasoning and total of about 3 cups water. If u use the whole packet with the water it calls for its to much liquid in my opinion.

[@oldguytool1735]

I made this today - my first pot roast ever (I'm normally a steak kinda guy, but at the absurd prices these days am looking for things to do with less expensive cuts). It was FANTASTIC - the meat was so tender, and the veggies were just right. The only thing I did different was add some chopped garlic to the top of the roast after searing it.

I prefer to cook my roast just like this, compared to using the crock pot. Something about cooking it in a Dutch oven pot makes it so tender and tasty. Love it!

[@SuperSaltydog77]

[@ShalondaMcFarland]

This was a great chuck/pot roast video recipe. It came out perfect. I didnt use the mustard. And I added beef broth to the marsala. I make slits in the meat and put garlic inside before searing. Also used a little ground thyme and a dash of basil leaves vs what you used. Very good. Thank you for the concise and accurate video.
