Description

This apple-flavored pot roast recipe yields a tender, slightly sweet pot roast made with apple juice, potatoes, and carrots — a comforting one-pot meal.

Ingredients

1 (3 pound) boneless beef chuck roast
water as needed
1 (12 fluid ounce) can frozen apple juice concentrate, thawed
1 dash soy sauce
3 cloves garlic, chopped
1 (1 ounce) envelope dry onion soup mix
3 baking potatoes, peeled and diced
2 carrots, peeled and sliced

Directions

1 Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).
2 Place beef in a roasting pan or large casserole dish; add about ½ inch of water. Stir in apple juice concentrate and soy sauce. Cut several small slits in roast; stuff with garlic. Season roast with onion soup mix. Cover the pan with aluminum foil or a lid.
3 Cook in the preheated oven for 2 hours. Add potatoes and carrots. Cover the pan; continue cooking until roast is fork tender, about 2 hours more.
