How to Make Old-Fashioned Pot Roast

Step-by-Step

Sprinkle the roast with 1 tablespoon flour.
In a dutch oven, brown the roast on all sides in half of the butter.
Add the water, bouillon, onion, celery, salt and pepper and bring to a boil.
Reduce heat then cover and simmer for 1 hour.
Add carrots and cover and simmer 45-60 minutes longer or until meat is tender.
Remove meat and carrots to a serving platter and keep warm. Strain cooking juices; set aside.
In the same dutch oven, melt remaining butter.
Stir in remaining flour; cook and stir until bubbly.
Add 2 cups of the cooking juices and blend until smooth.
Cook and stir until thickened; add additional cooking juices until gravy has desired consistency.
