This recipe is #2 from Gooseberry Patch’s The Christmas Table Cookbook:
Yesterday my sense of taste came back most of the way and I’m so glad I was able to taste this pot roast because it was awesome!! Mr. Meat Eater was practically drooling when he came home from work and smelled this! It was easy to make and since everything was made together, all I added was biscuits and dinner was done!

Homestyle Pot Roast
Submitted by Karen Crosby, Myrtle Beach, SC
1 large oven-safe roasting bag
1/4 cup flour
2/3 cup water
1 oz pkg onion soup mix
4 redskin potatoes, quartered
1 large onion, quartered
16 oz pkg baby carrots
chopped fresh parsley, optional
Shake flour in the roasting bag and place the bag in a 13×9 pan. Add water and soup mix to the bag and squeeze to combine with the flour.
Add the roast to the bag and turn the roast around to coat with the flour mixture. Place potatoes, onions, and carrots around the roast.
Close the bag with the tie that comes with the bag. Cut 6 slits in the top of the bag and tuck end into pan.
Bake at 325º for 2 hours (mine went about 2 1/2 hrs since I was busy) or until the roast reaches your desired degree of doneness.
Sprinkle with parsley if desired.
Makes 6 to 8 servings.
Happy Cooking!

Nancy, this looks really good. Does it make a nice gravy? And what size roast did you use?

Yes it makes a yummy gravy. I think my roast was about 2 1/2 lbs and I had about 1/2 for leftovers.
