Pot Roast in the Cream Can

[CaseT]

For whatever reason our grocery store chain here has decided to not put roasts out anymore. So I've had to really hunt to find any type of roast.

Last week they had chuck roasts finally so I picked up a couple. One for the freezer, on for dinner. Since I was limited on time I used the cream can. Put in the standard veggies, onion, carrots, taters, and celery. Added beef bone stock and a Deschutes Black Butte Porter. I should mention that the roast marinated in Henderson's relish with SPOG for 2 days.

Brought the pot to boil reduced the heat to low and let the roast cook for 3.5 hours. Pull from the pot and let rest 30 minutes before slicing. Roast was butter knife tender, veggies were perfect. I used the stock to make a simple gravy. My wife doesn't care for gravy so she used the stock as Au Jus.

Veggies in the pot. The carrots were too pretty to cut up!

As usual there were leftovers. I like open face hot meat sandwees so that happened!

Nice combination there Case, looks really good. Speaking of roasts Fry's (Kroger) had bone in rib roasts for $3.97 a pound so yesterday we bought a couple and had them cut into ten 1 1/2 inch steaks and another 2 bone roast. Merry Christmas to me.

Thanks Rich! I went to our Safeway this morning and they had (4) rib roasts, all $8.99/#. Those are the only rib roasts I've seen this year. Don't know what the deal is but Safeway/Albertsons has quit marketing roasts. All steaks or burger. I'll have to give our Fred Meyers a look, I see ours has rib roasts on sale for $6.99/#. Unfortunately for me its out of the way so I don't go there often.

Thank you Cliff! Yeah the gravy was good. Just the simple 2 table spoons flour & butter for a roux & 2 cups stock with salt and pepper to taste.

That's interesting our Safeway has rib eye bone in roasts whole in the bag at $4.57 a pound this week. I usually get theirs but with Fry's being under $4.00 a pound I went there instead.

Creme can cooking at its best, what else do you need.....nothing...= tasty.

That's some fine home-cooking, Case. Not really a fan of pot roast, but yours could change my mind.
