Southern Pot Roast

2 lb roast
2 cans cream of mushroom or cream of potato soup
2 packets lipton onion soup mix
4-5 peeled and chopped sliced carrots
8-10 small red potatoes
flour
salt and pepper
oil

Preheat oven to 225.  Heat small amount of oil in a skillet over med-high heat.  Put flour, salt, and pepper on all sides of the roast.  Sear all sides of roast in the skillet.  In a roasting pan, mix soup with a can of warm water and onion mix and add vegetables and roast.  Cover and cook in oven for 6-7 hours spooning gravy over roast ever few hours.

You can leave out potatoes and make mashed potatoes and use roast gravy on them.  Another option is to lower the oven temp a little and cook overnight.

  1. This is how I make it except I use a crock pot and a roast seasoning packet instead of the soup mix. I am totally going to try the soup mix though because it sounds really good!! And I bet searing the roast really helps! Good idea!
