Believe it or not, I have never shared a pot roast recipe with you. It is one of my all time favorite consolation foods that my mom used to make.
I took what I remember from mom's lessonic version and added my own special twist.
My twist? Wine! Special? Why yes! I love red wine in my pot roast. It gives the roast and the gravy a mouthwatering wealthy flavor.
The entire roast is spectacular from start to finish. This pot roast is so tender that it literally melts in your mouth.
It begins by searing the beef and creating a fabulous crust on it which adds an Incredible caramel flavor and nuttiness to the roast.
Searing the meat first not only seals in the juices, it adds a depth of flavor that you can not create any other way, so even whether you choose to toss this is a slow cooker don't skip the searing step.
It is worth the time. Believe me.
The gravy is built with beef stock and red wine used to deglaze the pan and scrape up all those delicious browned bits from the roast and the veggies.
Adding fresh herbs genuinely kick the flavor up a notch. Then the roast is added back to the pan and heads to the oven to cook at a low moodature for a long time until it all melds together to create the most Incredible pot roast you will ever eat!
