Beginners Pot Roast
- 3 -4 lbs beef roast
- 2 large onions (chopped course)
- 2 1/2 cups water
- salt and pepper
- Preheat the oven to 450u0b0F.
- Place 1/4 of the onion on the bottom of the pan. If you do no have roasting pan you can use a cake pan, you will need to use foil to make a tent.
- Trim excess fat from the meat. Salt and pepper generously both sides. If you use the Worcestershire sauce cut back on the salt.
- Place the roast in the pan, add water and the remaining onions. Make sure to have onions on top of the roast.
- Cover and put in the oven for about an hour.
- Then lower the temp to 350u0b0F for another 1-1 1/2 hours depending on how rare or cooked you want you meat.
- My additions are when the mood strikes:
- Yellow and red peppers.
- A-1 Steak sauce or Worcestershire sauce.
- Garlic.
- Over the years I have made this with a frozen roast and only had to cut back the water and add about another hour or so to the cooking time.
