One 3-4-pound boneless chuck roast
1 teaspoon The Lady's House Seasoning
1 teaspoon The Lady's Seasoned Salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 tablespoon beef bouillon granules
1 cup thinly sliced onion wedges

Place the meat in a roaster pan. Sprinkle the bouillon granules over the meat, and cover it with onions, garlic, and bay leaves. Combine the mushroom soup, wine, Worcestershire sauce, and half a soup can of water, and pour this over the roast. Cover and bake for 2 to 2 1/2 hours, or until tender.
