This is a recipe handed down from my aunt which I loved as a kid. It was the focal point of summer weekends with the family at the lake home. It has such a distinctive taste and the meat is usually so tender. (Just re-found the recipe!)

Ingredients

  • 4 pounds pot roast
  • 3 tablespoons flour
  • 1 tablespoon brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon dry mustard
  • 1 cup ketchup
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons worcestershire sauce

How To Make silver plated pot roast

  • Step 1
    After preparing the vegetables, brown the pot roast on both sides on an outdoor grill. Takes about 20 minutes.
  • Step 2
    Mix flour, brown sugar, salt & pepper, dry mustard, ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, and vinegar together in a medium bowl.
  • Step 3
    Tear off a 5 foot strip of heavy duty foil and fold in the middle so you have a doubled piece of foil. Put half of the sauce in the center of the foil and put the browned roast on top. Pile the vegetables on top of the meat, pouring the remaining sauce over it all. Wrap the roast in the foil, folding edges tightly to secure the juices.
  • Step 4
    Put a double thickness of foil on the grill and place the roast package on top. Cook 1-1/2 to 2 hours "over slow coals" as my aunt's recipe says, or on low on a gas grill.
  • Step 5
    Serve roast in chunks because it's usually too tender to slice! Serve vegetables in a separate bowl and pass the sauce.
