Easiest Pot Roast - EVER

 I am not one for pre-packaged, convenience foods, but this is my easiest and best pot roast recipe, so I make the exception.  Comfort food at its finest.  Here's the recipe (no printable needed, you'll probably remember it, it's that easy).  Ready?

Ingredients:
2-3 pound chuck roast
1 package onion soup mix
1 can cream of mushroom soup
aluminum foil


preheat oven to 325 degrees

  • place a large sheet of  foil in a baking pan (large enough sheet to "wrap" up the meat). 
  • place chuck roast on the foil
  • pour can of soup over the meat
  • sprinkle onion soup mix over the soup
  • wrap foil up and around the meat - crimping the foil so it's all sealed in
  • bake for 3+ hours at 325 degrees
  • open up, slice and serve with pot roast-y kinds of sides (mashed potatoes, carrots...)

YUM!

  6. This is such a simple recipe, I love it! I usually cook pot roast in my slow cooker which is also easy. I work with La Cense Beef, which is a 100% grass fed program. If you are interested in other quick and easy recipes for your Pot Roast, check out the website.

  7. I make this in my crock pot all the time. In addition to the cream of mushroom soup and french onion soup mix I add a can of coca cola. Then I use the juice as a gravy on mashed potatoes. We call it Coke Roast :)
