Aunt Mary'S Pot Roast - cooking recipe

Ingredients

4 -5 lbs beef chuck roast
1 -2 tablespoon oil
1 (2/3 ounce) envelope Italian salad dressing mix
1 (12 ounce) bottle beer

Preparation

Heat the oil in an ovenproof dutch oven (I use cast iron). Brown the roast in the oil on all sides. Sprinkle the dry dressing mix over the meat and pour the beer over all. It will foam up! Place in a preheated oven set at 300 degrees and bake for 3 to 4 hours or until tender. I have baked it at 350 degrees for 2 to 3 hours before and had it turn out fine. If desired, you can add carrots and/or potatoes during the last hour of cooking.
