Baby red potatoes<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

This time, I\u2019ve gone back to basics with the lady whose YouTube site is The Hillbilly Kitchen. Here, she presents her Sunday and\u00a0 holiday roast beef, which we\u2019d have after coming home from church. What my paternal Grandma fixed was pretty close to this lady’s method. What\u00a0 my Dad fixed was burnt meat. \ud83d\ude1b<\/p>\n

Hillbilly Pot Roast<\/strong><\/p>\n

First is the YouTube video, which is about 38 minutes long. She explains everything and repeats where appropriate. This is the Sunday pot roast my paternal Grandma made and my Dad tried to copy. I miss that.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Note that she does not tell you to \u201cflour\u201d the roast before searing it. That does make a difference, as searing the meat is meant to seal in the flavor, so flouring the roast is not necessary in this case.<\/p>\n

Here\u2019s her list of Ingredients<\/strong>:<\/p>\n

Beef or Pork Roast (She’s using two different cuts of beef in this video, and she does discuss the price differences.)<\/p>\n

Carrots (she’s using the baby carrots)<\/p>\n

Potatoes<\/p>\n

Water as needed<\/p>\n

1 tablespoon Corn Starch per cup of liquid from the roast<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Optional Seasonings<\/strong>:<\/p>\n

Onion<\/p>\n

Peppers<\/p>\n

Garlic<\/p>\n

Worcestershire Sauce<\/p>\n

Mushrooms<\/p>\n

Celery<\/p>\n

Salt & Pepper<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

She\u2019s doing this as a stovetop cookery event with a large deep lidded skillet as the cooking pan. We all have our own methods and utensils, and I would put it in a small oval roasting pan with a lid (yes, you can still get them!), or if it’s a holiday, the deep and very large 3 Ton cast iron skillet with a deep lid that I got from Lodge Cast Iron, and then I’d go do other chores like laundry.<\/p>\n

The most important thing to remember is to keep it covered, which keeps the beef moist.\u00a0 She only uses a hot flame to sear the meat. With the stainless deep skillet she’s using (a lot like the Lodge deep skillet), once the meat is seared and seasoning veggies (onions, peppers) are added, it might be a good idea to turn the flame or burner down a bit, but that’s up to the cook. Me, I’d put a flame diffuser on the burner to spread the heat more evenly, but that’s just me. You know your own kitchen equipment and what does and doesn’t work.<\/p>\n

Fortunately, it’s a one-pot meal, which means less clean-up in the end, and keeps the gravy in the pot with the roast.<\/p>\n

It’s worth your time to take a look as she is very thorough in going over her methods of cooking this way and the difference between stovetop roasting and the other methods, such as the Instapot.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
