Aunt Mary's Pot Roast image

This recipe was found in "A Skillet Full" from the South Pittsburg Tennessee Historic Preservation Society. South Pittsburg is where the Lodge Manufacturing Co. is located; they make the best cast iron utensils, pots, etc. The recipe is so easy, but so good. My aunt's hairdresser shared this one with her and she shared it with us. I have increased the oven temperature to 350 degrees and decreased the baking time without any problem.

Time 3h10m

Yield 1 pot roast, 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 4

4 -5 lbs beef chuck roast
1 -2 tablespoon oil
1 (2/3 ounce) envelope Italian salad dressing mix
1 (12 ounce) bottle beer

Steps:

  • Heat the oil in an ovenproof dutch oven (I use cast iron). Brown the roast in the oil on all sides. Sprinkle the dry dressing mix over the meat and pour the beer over all. It will foam up! Place in a preheated oven set at 300 degrees and bake for 3 to 4 hours or until tender. I have baked it at 350 degrees for 2 to 3 hours before and had it turn out fine. If desired, you can add carrots and/or potatoes during the last hour of cooking.
