CLAY ROAST
When it comes to a Sunday dinner, nothing beats a classic like the pot roast! Slow-cooked dinners that can be cooked in a slow cooker, instant cooker or in the oven. A complete meal with cooked vegetables along with their meat.
WHAT IS ASADO DE OLLA?
Roast pot is a large, sturdy cut of meat (usually a cheap cut perfect for slow cooking), singed, covered and cooked slowly with herbs and vegetables in a tasty broth until it melts tenderly.
A good pot roast can be made with any cut of roast meat: chuck roast, round roast or breasts. The meat is seasoned and scorched and then added to your slow cooker or instant cooker with a braised liquid; For this recipe you will use meat broth and balsamic vinegar that helps to soften the meat and add a deeper flavor.
There are three main steps to the most perfect pot roast, whichever option you choose
:
- DO your roast first: The taste you get from burning your meat first is amazing. The fat is extracted while the juices are sealed. This step is well worth the extra time and dishes. While cooking slowly, the meat will release an incredible flavor in its sauce.
- ADD vegetables.
- COOK SLOWLY using the method you want!
The incredible bonus is the rich sauce that is cooked directly in the pot to drizzle all your
meat roast!

:
POTATOES: Yukon gold or peeled red potatoes reddish potatoes. You’ll love the buttery texture of the Yukon months pot roast recipe. Onions: White or yellow onion is best for adding flavor while slowly stewing. carrot: Add them peeled or unpeeled. Be sure to cut them into thick pieces, as cutting them into thin discs will turn into porridge.
THE BEST ROASTS FOR ROASTING POT
Hard cuts with lots of connective tissue that would be like the leather of the chewing shoe if you cooked it quickly in a pan are the perfect cuts to use
. Chuck Roast: tender,
- melts
- Brisket: It has a lot of connective tissue so it’s a fattier cut that gets super tender while cooking slowly, but can still be sliced to serve
- Round: (bottom round, top round) a lean cut and easy to cut.
and easy to crush.
Slow cooking of these cuts breaks down collagen, tenderizing the meat. The meat releases its juices into the broth, giving your roast an amazing taste. Adding flour or cornstarch turns that liquid gold into a delicious and thick sauce.
HOW TO ROAST IN POT IN A SLOW COOKER (CLAY POT)
Season the roast with a good amount of salt and pepper and seal on all sides until golden brown (about 5-6 minutes on each side). Transfer the roast to the bowl of a 6-quart slow cooker. Add all remaining ingredients and simmer for 8 hours. The meat will be so tender and crumbling, and the vegetables soft. Remember to taste the test and add any extra balsamic vinegar, brown sugar, salt or pepper, until you reach the desired flavor.
PRO TIP: It’s best to cook the pot roast on the low setting rather than the high setting when it comes to pot roasting. Your meat will be tender and delicious every time.
HOW TO ROAST IN AN INSTANT POT (ELECTRIC PRESSURE COOKER)
Heat the oil in the instant pot and put it in ‘Sauté’. When the oil is hot, seal on all sides until golden brown (about 4-5 minutes on each side). Add all remaining ingredients and cook under high pressure for 60 minutes, followed by a 15-minute natural release. Then use the quick pressure lever to release any remaining pressure. Carefully remove the lid and transfer the roast and vegetables to a hot dish.
PRO TIP: The natural release part of electric pressure cooking is an important step. We’ve found that if you release the pressure immediately after cooking, your meat can harden. Letting the pressure cooker sit for 15 minutes during the natural release stage produces a tender result.
