Prep Time 5 minutes
Cook Time 1 hour 30 minutes
Total Time 1 hour 35 minutes
Servings 6

Ingredients

  • 1 4-6 pound chuck roast
  • salt & pepper
  • water
  • 1 tbsp butter
  • 1 clove garlic

Instructions

  1. Rub garlic clove onto roast. Salt and pepper the meat. In an electric skillet, on medium heat melt butter then put roast into pan and brown evenly on all sides. 

  2. Once brown, add about 1/4 - 1/2 cup water and close lid. The water will absorb and start leaving the browned goodness from the meat in the pan. When this happens, after about 10 minutes, turn meat over and add water again and close lid.  
  3. This is starting to make the juices and also cooking the meat. Continue this process for about an hour, then add carrots to pan. When the juices absorb, stir the carrots and turn the meat, adding some water .

  4. Don't add water until it is all absorbed. If you want to remove some of the juices to be sure you have enough go ahead and then just add the water, and continue browning and letting water absorb between turning.

    Roast comes out tender, juicy and delicious and your carrots will be cooked and browned with lots of flavor.
