The Ultimate Pot Roast

You can be known for your roast. Please note this recipe has an extended cooking time.

Ingredients

  • cooking oil
  • 1 pot roast - medium sized
  • 1 large onion, chopped or sliced
  • 1 teaspoon minced garlic (or powdered)
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 can tomatoes ( or 1 quart jar home steamed/stewed tomatoes)
  • 2 bay leaves
  • 3/4 - 1 cup brown sugar ( more depending on your taste preference)
  • 1 can mushrooms if desired

Instructions

Put some cooking oil in the bottom of a stock pot or large saucepan (one with a lid) and heat. Once oil is hot add the pot roast. Be sure to brown well on all sides and edges as this will help keep in the juices. Once meat has browned nicely add the onions & garlic. Sprinkle meat with enough salt & pepper to your desired taste on all sides. Once onions have cleared slightly, add the remaining ingredients. Stir to mix all and just taste the liquid. If it does not taste sweet enough for you add more brown sugar. Cover with a lid and turn heat down to medium on a propane stove and 8 on an electric. Let cook for 3- 3 1/2 hours or until meat is no longer pink inside. Be sure that you turn the meat every 15 - 20 minutes and stir the sauce over the meat and around it to avoid it sticking. When finished cooking the meat will be very tender and you will have a thick but sweet chunky gravy.
