Pot Roast with Gravy
I love it when my boys call me about my pot roast - keep calling! Anyway, this is pretty basic. Mom always had a round bone chuck roast but they are pretty hard to find.
Prep Time
20 minutes
Cook Time
2 hours
Total Time
2 hours 20 minutes
Ingredients
- 3 lb chuck roast, rump roast or top round roast - the eye of the round is good too.
- 1 large onion, cut up
- 1 large bay leaf, or more if you so desire
Instructions
- Brown roast in small amount of oil, adding chopped onion, turn a couple of times to brown it well.
- Add water to the pah, halfway up the thickness of the meat.
- Add bay leaf.
- Cover tightly and simmer until tender - a good couple of hours, I think.
- Check from time to time and add water if needed.
- By the time it's done cooking the water will be just about gone and the juices will remain.
- Remove roast from pan.
- Add about 1/4 cup of flour to the pan.
- Stir well and add water as needed to make the gravy.
