Best Pot Roast & Gravy


Roast (I usually get what ever is cheapest, bottom round roast)
Worcestershire Sauce
Basil
Onion Soup Mix
Garlic
Salt
Pepper

Yellow Potatoes, quartered
Baby Carrots
Large onion, chopped

Gravy:
Drain Drippings, remove as much oil as possible
1-2 cans Campbell's Golden Mushroom Soup
Cornstarch, if needed.

I usually bake this in my roaster oven so it doesn't heat up your house. I place the roast in the pan and dowse it generously with Worcestershire sauce, then sprinkle it heavily with basil to completely cover the top of the roast. I then sprinkle evenly with remaining spices and cover. Bake at 275 for 6hours. After about 4 hours I add the cut up vegetables, cover and cook 2 more hours. Then drain liquid drippings and mix with condensed soup, do not add water. If the gravy is still to thin mix a heaping table spoon of cornstarch with a little water and add to gravy mixture to thicken. Slice roast to serve.

DELICIOUS!!! This is one of our favorite Sunday meals. Add some rolls and a nice green salad (really the salad is just for me cause salad is like criptonite to Kulesa).
