Pot roast is a classic comfort food that is often cooked with vegetables and gravy. There are many different variations of this dish, but one of the most popular is pot roast with soy or lima beans. This dish is typically made with a chuck roast, which is a tough cut of beef that becomes tender when cooked slowly. The roast is browned in a Dutch oven or slow cooker, then simmered in a flavorful liquid, such as beef broth or red wine. Soy sauce or lima beans are added to the pot along with vegetables such as carrots, potatoes, and onions. The dish is cooked until the beef is fall-apart tender and the vegetables are cooked through.

ROASTED LIMA BEANS
Steps:
- Place the beans and water in a large saucepan over high heat and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to low, cover and cook until the beans are just soft, about 1 hour. Remove from the heat. Drain the beans and cool under running water. Drain thoroughly and spread on paper towels to dry.
- Preheat an oven to 425 degrees F. Toss beans with the olive oil and sprinkle with salt, lime juice and cayenne. Spread beans out on a baking sheet and place in oven. Roast until beans begin to brown slightly. Serve warm or room temperature.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Heat a large ovenproof skillet that can later be covered over high heat for about a minute. Add oil and, after a moment, meat. Immediately transfer to oven. Let sit there for 10 minutes, then turn and brown other side for 10 minutes.
- Remove meat from oven, and sprinkle with pepper. Add beans to pot, along with soy sauce and 1 cup water. Cover, and return to burner, adjusting heat so mixture simmers. Cook slowly, turning about every half-hour, until meat is very tender, at least 2 hours (and not unlikely 4). If heat is low enough -- just a few bubbles should appear at a time -- you will not need to add more liquid, but do so if the mixture threatens to dry out.
- When meat is done, taste, and add salt if needed; serve with beans and sauce.

SOUTHERN LIMA BEANS WITH RICE
I was born and raised in the south, and we eat a lot of beans. Here is a easy and basic lima bean recipe. We've been doing it this way for years. You can use ham hocks, hambones, smoked bacon or smoked sausage for the pork flavor in this dish. Also fresh, frozen or even canned beans can be used--they just won't have to cook as long.

Steps:
- I know the bag says to soak the beans overnight, but you really don't have to.
- Wash the beans, and then put them in a large pot. Cover with water and bring to a boil. Boil for 3 to 5 minutes, then turn off the heat, cover and let it sit for 1 hour.
- After the beans have sat, drain the water and sit the beans to the side.
- Add the oil to the pot and sauté the ham hocks and onions together, until onion is clear and tender, add garlic and sauté about 2 minutes more. Add the beans and cover with water.
- Add pepper and salt--only about 1 teaspoon of salt at first.
- Bring to a boil; stir, reduce heat and cover and simmer for about 2 hours.
- Keep checking the water level and stirring every once in a while. Add more water if needed, but not too much.
- Just enough to keep about 1 inch of water above the beans as they cook.
- Cook until beans are tender, adding more salt if needed. The water will turn into a wonderful gravy. Serve over rice.

SLOW COOKER SOUTHERN LIMA BEANS AND HAM
I searched your website for the simple lima bean recipe that my mom used to make and the one that is served by many restaurants here in the south as a side dish. I couldn't find one, so I submitted my own. This is an easy, basic lima bean dish with ham, onion, and seasonings. Served over Mexican cornbread, it makes a delicious hearty meal. You can also do this on the stovetop. Just follow the directions on the back of the lima bean bag and add the seasonings. Slow cooker time is about 7 hours. Add a side salad for a complete meal.
