Seriously...so easy and so incredibly delicious! My mom makes a killer pot roast!!
What you need:
Oven bags (usually on the baking aisle or by the plastic wrap)
1.5 lb roast (ideal is only 2-3 inches thick...any thicker and it'll be dry and take FOREVER to cook)
russet potatoes (if large, cut in half or thirds, if medium, just poke a few holes in them so they don't explode)
carrots
celery
onion - chopped
dried onions
1-2 cans cream of [something] soup (mushroom, chicken, celery, whatever)
1 pack brown gravy mix - the powder stuff
1 1/2 cups water
Seasonings (salt, pepper, thyme, whatever other flavors you like)
Sear the roast until browned with salt and pepper.
Place in oven bag (in a large roasting pan)
Place potatoes around the roast.
Add fresh veggies and place on top of the roast.
Mix together remaining ingredients and pour over the roast and veggies.
Cut 3 small holes in the bag so it doesn't explode.
Bake at 325 for 3.5 hours. Remove carefully from bag (don't get burned by the steam), mix it around a little to make sure the gravy coats everything and serve.
Easy, easy!
