re: How do you do a tender pot roast...

I do a pot roast so many different ways that all come out a little different.

Try this one.

Get a chuck roast. Put a 1/4 cup of ap flour in a gallon ziplock. Shake that thing to coat all the sides. Get a couple tablespoons of bacon grease hot in your dutch oven. Sear that thing on all sides. Remove and toss in some prediced medium onion, stalk of celery , and either a bellpepper or some jalapeno. Cook until clear, then add water a little at a time while scraping the fond off the bottom of the pot. Once the water is 3/4 to an inch deep, cover with foil, put on the lid and slide into a 275F oven for about 2-4 hours. The longer the better.
