>>16746960

>>16746960
November of last year

Thursday

>>16746974
How does it take patience to cook one of the easiest things to cook have you been reading lies in New Yorker again?

Last winter, I consider pot roast to be a cold weather dish.

>>16746960
A while. I buy a quarter steer at a time, and I think I only have three stew cuts left. But you've inspired me.

>>16746960
luv me roast
luv me mash
luv carrot
simple as

>>16747016
Not quite, it's my birthday as well but I thought that bit of trivia might be a bit dull to yer ears

>>16746960
never

I don’t have the patience to, forgive me

>>16746960
like two weekends ago.

Last night but I also added celery

>>16746960
quite some time ago. I mainly eat them when it's cold

>>16746960
I cook stuff like that a lot during the cold months.
Not really a Summer dish.

>>16748379
Agreed. The whole house ends up quite warm in the process

>>16746960
Bout a month ago. Probably should do that again.

>>16746960
a couple years ago. i don't really eat red meat anymore because it makes my stomach hurt. i still do roasted chickens every couple months though

like 4-5 months ago.

I don't generally do that kind of dish in the summer.


I picked up a nice looking chuck roast the other day though, so I might do one in the next few days.

>>16746960
My mom made it last week

>this op format

fuck off schizo

>>16746960
Don't usually roast that much since it's hot out still, but I had a roast last night.
When people ask me what white people food is, this is what I tell them.

>>16746974
Patience? You chop up some veggies and throw them in a crock pot or dutch oven with some roast then make gravy out of the broth. It's one of the first meals I learned how to make.

>>16746960
>>16746970
Same, last month over a cold weekend

Was delicious

>>16748784
this thread is for people who enjoy the simple pleasure of roasted meats and vegatables

>>16746960
I've never made a pot roast only normal roasts.

>>16747022
I like going over to moms for this. Sometimes I put one on before I got to work and set it for 12 hours. It just tastes like home.

>>16746974
No one makes them because they're not cooking for a family of 5 and investing in a massive cut of meat.

>>16747022
based

>>16746960
Last winter, it's been too warm to have the oven in all day for months, but soon I can again.

>>16746960
It's my favorite food I make it all the time

>>16746960
Yesterday for real

>>16749796
Today is sunday. You should have waited and made it today. Like G-d intended.

>>16746960
3 days ago. It's one of my favorite meals. also cheap and super easy to make.

>>16749807
You're probably right, because I can't top it. Out of ideas tonight.

>>16747016
How is remembering our president's birthday a bad thing?

Over the fall and winter I make a 4 pound roast every week and get 5 dinners out of it.

What's your go-to slow cooker roast recipe?

How do I make a nice roast with vegetables? What kind of meat? How do I do it?
Tell me because I’ve never done it before.

>>16746974
Best part about working from home. I can do a slow roast 5 days a week if I want.

>>16746960
Does anybody eat butter and drink milk anymore?

all the kids are falling for the margarine scam. Nobody wants to eat real food anymore

I haven't roasted ever since I got a smoker.

>>16748743
what's that called? Doesn't look like a normal pot roast, gib recipe.

>>1674696
Love a good pot roast.

>>16751337
Just about any big chunk of meat will make a nice roast.
Beef Eye, pork loin, and whole chicken all make for excellent roasts and are very affordable. My favorite is lamb, but it's expensive and hard to come by. Whatever meat you choose, rub and season it generously.
In the case of pork and beef, it's recommended that you sear the cuts on all sides prior to roasting so that they maintain moisture. Lightly browning the outsides will do the trick.

For the vegetable bed, feel free to get creative. I usually go with carrots, broccoli, yellow squash, mushrooms, and onions.
Potatoes are also a good choice, but I personally don't care for them.
Whatever dish you cook it in, pour a small bit of liquid on the bottom to help cook the vegetables. Wine or light beer are good options here.
For additional seasonings, I'm a fan of rosemary, coriander, bay leaves, and garlic. With salt and pepper of course. Lemon is also a nice choice.
Times will vary based on whatever meat you choose, but expect 3-5 hours at 350F.

In short:
-Pick a fat piece of meat that'll fit in your dish.
-Sear it.
-Choose whatever vegetables you want
-Add your spices
-Add some liquid
-Put your meat on top of the vegetables
-Cook the bitch

>>16751499
Thanks anon
Do I put the spices on the meat or just sprinkle them over top of everything?

>>16746974
I make roasts almost every week. Hubs luvs em.
Best is lamb imho, nothing like a good leg of lamb or shoulder cut.

>>16746960
Pot roast is what made me realize that cooking a single, big piece of meat makes no sense at all. You're better off with smaller, flatter pieces of meat that cook faster and have more surface area (and therefore more seasoning).

>>16751506
Both.
You'll want to spice your meat before you sear it.
Rosemary, garlic, salt, and pepper are good for this step.
Larger spices, like the coriander and bay leaves, only go into the pot. But add some extra garlic, rosemary, etc at this point so that the vegetables get some.

>>16751436
It's just been cut into ~1.5" cubes and seared before being slow cooked.


Then at the end I remove the lid of my dutch oven and turn the heat up by ~50-75f and let the top crisp up a bit to finish it.


It's just chuck roast cubed, shallots, half a bottle of red wine (reduced by half before adding stock), thyme, rosemary, and sage, and chicken stock. Then after ~90-120 minutes in the oven at 350f I add cut up carrots and potatoes for a final 60-90 minutes (before uncovering for a final 15-25 minutes at 400-425f)

Really easy to do, just a little time-consuming.

It's the same recipe for my braised chicken thighs as well, but instead of using red wine I use white wine (pic related).

Fact: more men now wear bracelets than eat stew.

i prefer tobacco roast to pot roast

>>16751560
ha

>>16751556
better wear bracelets and not eat stew then wear stew and not eat bracelets!!! ha!

>>16751543
OK, I've never made an actual roast like that since I've never used stock other than consomme/chicken powder. And the only time I used red wine in cooking it was way too strong. I'll try it later, no dutch oven but I have a slow cooker that I've used for birria and cholent

>>16751578
I could just leave the roast whole, but I prefer cut into cubes and seared on all sides so everyone can get a few nicely seared chunks.

When you just cook the whole roast as-is usually you get some nice seared edge bits, but a lot of the middle ends up not being as delicious because it's only seared on 2 sides (top and bottom).

So cutting into cubes just gives a lot more surface area for searing.

>>16751532
Thanks

>>16751556
wat

>>16746960
last month

>>16746960
Does making a roast pork shoulder in the same style as beef pot roast count? If so, just last month. If not, it's been a few years. I don't want to pay beef prices for a dish like pot roast.

>>16752664
Of course it counts, how do you play?
Big piece of meat in a roastingpot. Good enough for me.

>>16752674
I do it in the crock pot with quartered red potatoes, carrot, celery, garlic powder, onion powder, 2 tablespoons of gochujang, about a quarter cup of soy sauce, a good sized dollop of hoisin sauce, 4 beef stock cubes, and just enough water to cover.

>>16746960
Never, because I've been vegan since I was nine (9) years old.

>>16752695
Pot roasts and stews would be the roughest thing to give up if I were to go vegan.
They're all coming out with fake hamburger patties, but I really don't think they can fake a nice stew meat.

>>16749110
No you libtard it's because of smart phones and the rap music turning the boys into girls, why there oughtta be a law

>>16752699
Seitan can work pretty well.

>>16747002
And yet you call this a pot roast despite the fact that it is obviously hamburgers

luv taters in my roast
luv parsnips
luv mushrooms
luv onions when they get dark and caramelize
luv sweet patoters

>>16747002
I celebrate it too.

>>16746960
yesterday

>>16752720
Yeah, the law says that I get to have them while they're still twinks.

literally last week, used the leftovers to make quesadillas

>>16750157
Not my president

Like 2 weeks ago and shit was amazing. One of my favorite meals. I use sweet potatoes in my roast.

>>16748743
That looks fucking tasty anon

>>16746960
Maybe 3 weeks ago. I usually make it every time I go to costco since they have really good chuck roast.

>>16752727
Get behind me

>>16746960
See:
>>16747019
It was fucking amazing, a neighbor of mine always wants some when he sees I'm making it. I want an air fryer to really make the meat better though.

>>16746960
>tfw mum used to make us a roast every Sunday
>made me roast beef and potato sandwiches with the leftovers for school on Monday
>never got fat
>her desserts were god-tier
>love British food to this day

I'm thinking it's time for a roast.

>>16751499
To add to this anons great writeup. Adding some tomato paste to the pan after searing then letting it cook for a little before deglazing with whatever liquid you are using adds a lot of flavor

I make boeuf bourguignon every 2-3 weeks, I'd say. Beef, onions, carrots, garlic, shallot, beef stock, wine, tomato paste, spices and seasonings, and a mushroom, pearl onion, and bacon topping to add at the very end. It takes forever to cook but the preparation itself is failproof and low-effort.

Last week, my grandparents were visiting and they really like it

Its actually rainy today and this post got me craving pot roast so I'm going for it. Gonna put some turnips in too and see how that turns out

>>16746960
I've tried a couple times, it always comes out super bland no matter what seasoning I use or how much. The beef is always tasteless.

>>16754123
Quit smoking.

>>16754126
I don't smoke
I've managed to make some pretty great gravy and vegetables with chuck roasts but the seasoning just never penetrates the meat, or maybe it does and it all just runs out.

my mom made potroast and borscht every day for the first 20 years of my life, don't reckon i'll be preparing it at any point in my life.

>>16754181
oh and potato dumplings
still kinda like them for the texture tho

>>16746960
>when was the last time you made a pot roast?
A few months back.

>>16754181
20 years of eating it and you still can't spell it

>>16746960
years because I'm too poor to even eat a fairly decent meal

>>16754128
Beef is never bland. Doesn't matter what you do.

>>16746960
Like 2 weeks ago?
I do it about twice a month in a pressure cooker. Takes about 30 minutes to prep and 1 hour to cook.

Just finished making a pot roast will post new thread

>>16754378
That's bullshit, especially when you're talking about cooking a cut to death like a chuck roast

>>16752982
Not my problem.

>>16746960
The trick is red wine deglazing often in a dutch oven to get the fond up

>>16754822
Might as well be a vegetarian, faggot. You don't like meat, you need to change it to like it.
