Pot Roast is not so much a recipe as the proper method. We use my
grandmother's and it works well.

Take a rump roast, wrap it in waxed paper, and place it on a hard surface,
such as a concrete floor. Bet it will a rolling pin a dozen times to help
tenderize it.

Heat up a Dutch oven, then put in a little oil and let it heat. Rub the meat
on all sides with some salt and pepper. Put the roast into the pan to brown
it. Let it sit until it releases and turn to the next side, repeat for all
sides.

Add some onions, add about a half cup of water, put on the lid and let it
cook on very low heat for four or five hours. It will be tender, tasty, and
have lots of gravy to be thickened. Serve with mashed potatoes and a veggie
of your choice.

Here's what I think I did wrong:
First, I seared a cold piece of meat.
Then I deglazed the pot residue with wine and added beef stock to it then
added it to the pot.

Then baked it and added potatoes and vegetables later.
The potatoes came out purple and the gravy looked brownish red in color.

Perfect Pot Roast

(Easy too!)

3-4 lbs chuck roast
3 tablespoons olive oil
2 pounds baby carrots
4 large potatoes, peeled and cubed.
Salt and fresh ground pepper.

Heat a large soup pot or deep skillet on high.

When it is hot add the oil.

Brown the roast on all sides, well.

*[If you want thicker gravy rather than broth,
remove the meat and brown a 3 tablespoons of
flour in the fat then return the meat to the pan.]

Add salt and pepper.

Add a splash of water to the pot, turn it down
low, cover, and leave it alone for three hours.

When it has cooked for three hours, put the
carrots and potatoes in. (You can add sauteed
onion too if you like.) You will notice that water
has cooked out of the roast and mingled with the
fat into a lovely brown broth. You do not need
beef stock or wine.

Replace lid and cook for another hour.

Serve with hot crusty bread. The meat will
be falling apart, and the broth/gravy will be
meaty and good with no winey or boullion
weirdness.
