My mom taught me how to make one of the best beef roasts ever! It's super easy to make, and really is wonderful. The roast will make a delicious gravy too--so make sure to make some mashed potatoes to go with it!

SERVES 6 (change servings and units)

Ingredients

3 lbs roast (I use whatever...round, pot roast....whatever is on sale!)
2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
pepper
garlic powder
1 envelope onion soup mix

Directions

1
Place roast in roaster pan and sprinkle with vinegar, pepper, garlic powder and the onion soup mix.
2
Cover roaster and bake at 325º-350º for at least 3-4 hours.
3
The last hour of cooking I remove the lid to brown the roast a bit.
4
Then with the drippings, I make gravy (remove roast and cover with foil. Heat the drippings on the stove over fairly high heat. Add more water if necessary, and bring to a boil. Whisk in a slurry of flour and water (fairly thick) stirring constantly to avoid lumps. Adjust salt and pepper.).

I always tend to overcook a roast beef. I used the cooking instructions from my package of eye round- it was 2 1/2 lbs. and I cooked it for an hour and a half at 325. It was probably done but I had it covered and it needed to brown a bit outside. I think I should have uncovered after 45 minutes...live and learn! Thanks for an easy recipe. I served it with green beans and Cauliflower Casserole which was a nice match.

We cooked this last week for lunchmeat. The DH loved it. It was flavorful, inexpensive and easy to make. We used the pan drippings to make the best onion dip for chips we've ever had. Just remove the drippings to a bowl, add sour cream to taste and enjoy. Thanks for posting!

Very good and especially easy! While I made the gravy, I microwaved some carrots in the broth from the roast so they tasted like they were cooked with the roast. Meat was nice and tender after 3 1/2 hours in the oven.
