I hesitated to add this recipe because it is so very easy it is hardly a recipe. It is also delicious so I decided to share it. Perfect fall/winter recipe. If you like pot roast I'd be very surprised if you don't enjoy this method of cooking. I've had this recipe for many many years - not sure of the origin. Simple can be good - very good.

SERVES 6 -8 (change servings and units)

Ingredients

1 (4 lb) beef chuck roast
salt
pepper

Directions

1
Wrap tightly in aluminum foil after salting and peppering to your taste. Make sure you have this on a pan the will catch any seeping juices.
2
Put in a preheated 250 degree oven and bake for 5-6 hours. Turns out beautifully with enough natural juices to make gravy if desired.

I have been looking for a way to prepare a roast that makes me look like a rock star - and have failed - until now. My DH wasn't sure he wanted to go to the butcher for a good piece of beef for me to ruin (again), but I insisted I wanted to try your Lazy Day Pot Roast. He is very glad he did, and I'm very glad I insisted. Followed your instructions to the letter and was very happy with the results. Goes to show simple is almost always best. Thanks Salesgirl!

This makes a perfect pot roast. Instead of aluminum foil I used a dutch oven. Nice, slightly crusty outside. Truly tender inside. Great juices. Easy, no fuss great on a cold day to keep kitchen warm.
