How to keep the pot roast tender?

To keep the pot roast tender, you will need to make sure you use kosher salt on the roast.

How to cook a pot roast?

To cook, a pot roast only takes a bit of preparation. The first thing you will need to do in preparation for any meal is to ensure you have all your ingredients sitting to the side so you don’t forget anything. Now, let’s get to these steps on making a pot roast.

Step 1:

Clean your pot roast thoroughly, and then cut into bite-size pieces.  You can decide if you want to cut the roast up or leave it as it is. I would recommend cutting the roast into pieces.

Step 2:

So, season the pot roast with half the seasonings you have.

Step 3:

Once you have done so, in a bowl, add flour, then add the remaining seasoning to the flour.

Step 4:

After that, place your sliced roast pieces into the flour, and cover every inch of the roast pieces.

Step 5:

After that, place some olive oil in a pan medium-high. So, once it becomes hot, place the pieces of pot roast in the pan and let cook on each side until it becomes golden and looks crusted.

Note: The meat will not be done at this point.

Step 6:

So, turn the crockpot on high and place all that meat into the crockpot.

Step 7:

So, add in your beef broth, chopped onions, chopped potatoes, carrots, rosemary, and garlic clove.

Step 8:

After that, let cook on high for 6 hours. At around 5 hours, taste the sauce to ensure it’s to your liking. If not, add more seasoning to taste.

Tip: As a result, the longer the roast cooks, the more the roast, carrots, and potatoes break down.

Warning: As a result, it will become mushy if cooked too long.
