About this Recipe: This classic recipe continues to be a popular choice on restaurant menus. Cracker Barrel© serves the beef with carrots and a side of mashed potatoes on the plate. If preparing this recipe, you might want to use a slow cooker or Instant Pot. We found that the easiest way to cook the beef was using an old-fashioned foil wrap, but it should be sealed securely.

Recipe featured on Sunday at Cracker Barrel© Restaurant.
When it comes to a Sunday dinner in America, there’s nothing quite as classic as pot roast. Roasting beef was used in peasant cooking in Europe, where tough cuts of beef slowly cooked in a liquid such as broth or wine until tender. Root vegetables were usually added to make the meal filling and hearty. It made its way to America and became one of our loved comfort dinners.

Cook’s Note: You might experience some juices escaping the foil. Add some water to the bottom of the pan if this happens. The foil wrapped technique was printed in Reynolds Wrap© Creative Cooking with Aluminum Foil.

Serving the Dish:  Cut beef into serving chunks, combine with carrots and gravy. Spoon a portion on dinner plate, spoon warm mashed potatoes on the remaining portion of the plate.

Serves: 4 to 6
