Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 lb. boneless beef chuck roast
1 Tbsp. Cajun seasoning
1 onion, chopped
14 oz. can diced tomatoes with garlic, undrained
1/2 tsp. Tabasco sauce
1/8 tsp. pepper

Steps:

Tips:

  • Sear the beef roast before braising: This step helps to develop a rich, flavorful crust on the outside of the roast, while keeping the inside moist and tender.
  • Use a Dutch oven or slow cooker: Both of these cooking methods provide a moist, even heat that is ideal for braising pot roast.
  • Add plenty of vegetables to the pot: Vegetables such as carrots, celery, onions, and potatoes not only add flavor to the pot roast, but they also help to create a flavorful broth.
  • Use a good quality beef broth or stock: The broth or stock you use will make a big difference in the flavor of the pot roast. Choose a broth or stock that is low in sodium and has a rich, beefy flavor.
  • Cook the pot roast until it is fall-apart tender: The cooking time will vary depending on the size and cut of the roast, but it should be cooked until it is easily pierced with a fork.
