AWESOME RED WINE POT ROAST
I call this my 'famous Seamus' pot roast because my tiny Siamese cat, Seamus, sat in the kitchen the entire time this pot roast was cooking. I've been making this recipe for 40+ years and I just throw the ingredients together; it's very forgiving. My son-in-law also says it's the best thing he ever ate. When boys hang around the oven, it can't be bad.

Tips:
- Choose the right cut of beef: Chuck roast or brisket are both good choices for pot roast, as they are tough cuts that will become tender with long, slow cooking.
- Brown the beef before braising: Searing the beef in hot oil or butter before adding it to the pot will help to develop its flavor.
- Use a variety of vegetables: The vegetables in pot roast add flavor and nutrition. Use a variety of vegetables, such as carrots, celery, onions, potatoes, and parsnips.
- Use a good quality broth: The broth is the liquid in which the pot roast is cooked. Use a good quality broth, such as beef broth or chicken broth, for the best flavor.
- Cook the pot roast on low heat: Pot roast should be cooked on low heat for a long period of time, usually 8-10 hours. This will help the beef to become tender and fall apart.
- Serve the pot roast with mashed potatoes, rice, or noodles: Pot roast is a hearty and filling dish that can be served with a variety of side dishes. Mashed potatoes, rice, or noodles are all good choices.
