Beef Pot Roast
Source of Recipe
Mom Made this on Sundays
List of Ingredients
3 pound boneless beef arm roast
4 to 6 medium potatoes (pealed and quartered)
1 pound bag of carrots (small baby carrots)
1 large onion
salt
pepper
garlic powder
1 cup waterRecipe
Place beef arm roast in a large pan with lid (dutch oven), add water. Season with salt, pepper and garlic powder to taste. Slice onion and place the onion slices on top of the seasoned roast. Place any remaining onion around the side of the roast.
Add the potatoes and carrots around the roast. Salt and pepper the potatoes and carrots, but don't put garlic powder on them.
Bring to a boil, then turn down to simmer. All stoves are different, but try Med-Low. Cover and cook for 3 hours. Don't lift the lid during cooking, it lets the steam out and takes longer to cook the roast to tender! Also, make sure that when the roast is cooking that the water is a very low boil, simmer. If it cooks too fast, the meat will be too tough and the whole thing will burn.
An easier way: In a crock pot, put the potatoes, carrots and onion in first, then place the roast on top of the vegetables. Add water. Add the seasonings and cook on low for 10 hours, or on high for 5 hours.
