Mamallama's Potroast
- Number of Servings: 6
Ingredients
3 pounds chuck roast1.5 cups sliced onion4 cups carrots, cut up6 T balsamic vinegar .5 cup brown sugar5 medium potatoes, cut upbrown gravy mix for 3 cupswatermeat tenderizeroptional seasonings:thyme, garlic, rosemary
Sprinkle roast with tenderizer, piercing it
Sear in deep pan till browned on med hi heat. Reduce heat to simmer. Temporarily remove meat from pan.Add just enough water to cover bottom of pan and scrape up browned juices. Return meat to pan. Pour brown sugar and vinegar over top. (amounts given are estimated - I usually add enough vinegar to coat the roast, and enough brown sugar to do the same.) add seasonings and onions and fill pan with water as much as possible. Keep heat on low (3-4) to simmer, checking water level occasionally. After about 1 hour, add carrots. After another half hour, add potatoes. Cook till potatoes are done. Remove solids to serivng dishes and prepare gravy: use a little cold water in mix to start it dissolving, and then stir it into the hot juices till thickened. Serve!
If served among 6 people (that's 8 oz meat each before cooking!) it's about 575 calories each, if you have 1/6 of the meat, carrots, potatoes, and gravy.
