My Mom's All Day Roast (Revisited)

Tweet

Back in March I wrote about my mom's All Day Roast. You can find that post Here. I made this last night and took better pictures, that I'd like to share. The roast is larger than in the first post, I wasn't really happy with those pictures, but what can you do? lol
Its getting to be that time of year again, where having the oven on all day won't make the house hot! 
You also could very easily put this meal in the crock pot on Medium, maybe on Low if its on long enough. I have a Auto Shift on mine that switches back and forth between Low and High. Just make sure to add enough liquid that it doesn't dry out!


Here is what you need:

1. English Cut Roast (biggest one I can find usually,because they shrink!)
2. 2-3 Cans of Green Beans (I use French Cut, any brand)
3. 2-3 Cans of Whole White Potatoes (any brand) (fresh potatoes, don't really work for this recipe, as they fall apart..canned works best)
4. 1 packet of Lipton Onion Soup Mix (or any brand)
5. (Optional) add some Baby Carrots or (my mom sometimes used frozen    Pearl Onions)
6.Water or juice from green beans or potatoes (add enough to almost come to the top of the roast)
7. Pan large enough to hold it all (13x9 isn't quite big enough!)

Preheat oven to 200 degree's... meanwhile in a pan place the roast in the middle, open your canned veggies and drain (don't drain 1 can of the green beans juice for the liquid) surround the roast with the canned veggies(adding the juice from green beans.) Sprinkle packet of Lipton Onion Soup Mix on the whole thing.

Can you see the liquid? almost to the top of the roast.

Add about a can of water, slowly pour over whole thing. Make sure you have enough liquid in bottom, that comes at least half way up the roast! Cover with foil and cook at least 6-8 hours. 

Can you see where I didn't sprinkle the onion mix? That little section of green beans is for my hubby :) he doesn't like trying to pick the onions out of the green beans lol

The smell of this will drive you crazy about 2 hours after its been cooking, it smells soooo good!!

This will be a family favorite! It will be your favorite, because its so simple!

Prep time is about 5 minutes, you can't beat that for a meal that tastes like you slaved over the hot stove all day! lol (-̮̮̃•̃) 

I love the flavor of the potatoes and green beans ...yum!

This roast just literally falls apart!

OMGosh! doesn't this look so GOOD!!??

Enjoy!!!

Growing up as a kid, I did not like this roast at all! I felt like we had it Every week....of coarse we didn't, but we had it often, because its convenient, and oh sooo good (as I realized as an adult) When I asked my mom for the recipe she was shocked!! She said, You never liked this roast!!? lol 

Let me tell you, anyone who I have ever made this roast for absolutely loved it, even my kids love it, its one of their favorites! I made it for my husband's  family when we were dating, and he tore it up! haha :D (if you have read some of my earlier posts you might remember he's the one who doesn't like onions!)

You can do this in a crock pot (it kind of hard to cover all the ingredients with enough liquid) but I feel it works best in the oven...

I have a newer post on this roast Here , there are way better pictures on the newer post. ;)

Here is what you need:
1. English Cut Roast (biggest one I can find)
2. 2-3 Cans of Green Beans (I use French Cut, any brand)
3. 2-3 Cans of Whole White Potatoes (any brand)
4. 1 packet of Lipton Onion Soup Mix
5. (Optional) add some Baby Carrots or (my mom sometimes used frozen    Pearl Onions)
6.Water
7. Pan large enough to hold it all (13x9 isn't big enough!)

Place the veggies around the roast

I prefer canned potatoes as they hold together better, fresh potatoes seem to get grainy and fall apart...just my opinion.

Turn oven on to 200 degree's... meanwhile in a pan place the roast in the middle, open your canned veggies and drain (don't drain 1 can of the green beans juice for the liquid) surround the roast with the canned veggies(adding the juice from green beans.) Sprinkle packet of Lipton Onion Soup Mix on the whole thing.
Add about a can of water, slowly pour over whole thing. Make sure you have enough liquid in bottom, that comes at least half way up the roast! Cover with foil and cook at least 6-8 hours. 
Sometimes I have to add more green beans and potatoes as those seem to go fast (also it seems like there isn't very many potatoes in the cans) and there is usually no leftover's, depending on who is over for dinner :) 

You can put this in the oven, go to work and it will be done when you get home, that's why my mom liked it! Ohh and the smell that greets you when you walk in the door! 
This roast just falls apart when cooked long enough and the potatoes and green beans take on the flavoring of the soup... 
Your family will love ♥♥ this!!
