Notes

  • When you buy the chuck roast be sure to buy as little fat as possible. Chuck roasts have plenty of fat anyway, so it isn't usually a problem of not having enough.
  • Allow for ½ lb of raw chuck roast per person served, the fat is going to cook it WAY down.
  • You can cook your roast with potatoes and carrots. Many people prefer it this way but you don't HAVE to cook it that way. I like mine cooked separately and you might too.
  • Don't try to freeze the raw veggies with the roast, that will just result in mushy veggies.
  • If you are new to cooking roasts, don't try any other cut that a chuck roast. Shoulder roasts and others are often tougher and you might want to wait until you have this under your belt before moving on.
  • The idea with pot roast is cooking low and slow - so if it isn't fall apart tender, then try cooking it longer. That usually works.
  • Freeze for up to 6 months.
  • Be sure remove as much air as possible from the package because that helps prevent freezer burn
