Sunday Pot Roast

SERVES: 6

COOK TIME: 1 Hr 30 Min

Sunday dinners just got a whole lot better with our Sunday Pot Roast. See how a less expensive cut of beef can be turned into a tender, tasty meal that everyone will love.

What You'll Need

1 (3- to 3-½-pound) beef bottom round roast
1 cup chopped onion
1 cup sliced carrot (1 to 2 carrots)
1/2 cup dry red wine
1/2 cup water
1 tablespoon crushed garlic
1 tablespoon dried tarragon
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper

What to Do

Preheat oven to 325 degrees F. Coat a 9- x 13-inch roasting pan with cooking spray; place roast in prepared pan.
In a medium bowl, combine remaining ingredients; pour over meat.
Bake 1-1/2 to 2 hours, or until meat is fork-tender.

Notes

To make a rich gravy, mix 2 teaspoons cornstarch with 1/2 cup pan drippings, then add back to roasting pan. If you like your gravy thicker, just add a bit more cornstarch to the pan drippings, until you get the desired consistency.

I would cover it for the first hour so the juices don't evaporate in the oven , check after the first hour for tenderness and to see if you may need more juice . Then if it's tender remove the cover and continue cooking if you feel it needs more time . Hope no matter how you decide to cook it that it turns out good for you !

The difference in viewpoints here may be due to confusion between 'roasting' and 'braising'. The former is cooking with dry heat, and the latter uses moist heat.
