Pretty common here in the Midwest.
I can't believe it's necessary to ask the question...

Not anymore. The meat part got damned expensive. It used to be a hearty affordable meal that wasn’t hard to cook and tasted good for the amount of effort you had to put into it.
Kind of like how nobody makes hamburger helper anymore. It was popular back when a pond of hamburger was like a buck. Now that it’s $5 a pound no ones wastes it on the stuff.

(Click saving) this guy (and myself) move the potatoes to another ceramic, add celery to the carrot-onion mix & chop that and leave it under the roast

Bit more info, this is a common combination for stocks, soups and stews in French cuisine, traditionally 2:1:1 ratio onions to carrots and celery.
In Italian cuisine the essentially same thing is Sofrito, there is also the Cajun Holy Trinity which varies ingredients but is for similar purposes.
This is kind of a staple for a lot of quality cooking, you should at least make a stock from scratch at some point in your life and you’ll see why these combinations are so important if you do so.

Yes, but we also include turnips and rutabaga. I’ve been tempted to add beets but don’t want it to look like a murder

Wife makes it at least once a month.
CluckN@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago
Yeah she needs to add a little more salt on the carrots
Chev@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago
Stop cooking meat. No need for it anymore.
LengAwaits@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago
You don’t have to use meat if you don’t eat it.
Seitan roast with potatoes, onions, and carrots is divine.
Highly recommend this recipe.

Sooooo… Eat it raw?
NigelFrobisher@aussie.zone 2 weeks ago
You should do if it’s chicken in particular.
SCmSTR@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 weeks ago
I’ve tried. The bioavailability of nutrients in meat fits my adhd, lifestyle, and finances better. Without meat, I’m… even more useless than I normally am.

Who can afford beef?!
Paddzr@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago

I do once in awhile, usually if I see a good looking pot roast on sale. I usually use this recipe, it’s for beef stew but it also works as the liquid for a pot roast. fromvalerieskitchen.com/classic-stovetop-beef-ste…

The easiest pot roast recipe:
- One chuck roast
- Carrots
- Potatoes
- 1 head of garlic
- Two packets of brown gravy mix.
- Two packets of ranch dressing mix (yes, really).
- Two packets of Italian dressing mix (yes, really).
- Browning & seasoning sauce.
- Beef stock
- Combine packets in a bowl, and stir to evenly combine.
- Rub pot roast with a few dashes of browning sauce, until evenly covered.
- Chop carrots and potatoes into large chunks.
- Peel garlic cloves.
- Fuckin throw everything into a slow cooker.
- Sprinkle seasoning mix over everything.
- Add about an inch of beef stock to the bottom of the pot.
- Set slow cooker to low, and fuck off for like 8-10 hours. Or if you’re using a leaner cut of meat, set to high and fuck off for 5’ish hours instead.

I’m not British, so I don’t cook my roast.
renamon_silver@lemmy.wtf 3 weeks ago
You roast your cook?
Treczoks@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago
I roast the roast, as it’s proper.

Pot roast? Cook pot roast? No, beef is too expensive, I just cook the pot.
SchmidtGenetics@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago
Nothing wrong with a pork roast.
grue@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago
I’m gonna have to try that sometime. At my house, pork shoulder tends to get used for carnitas or pulled-pork barbecue.
Jarix@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago
The smell from my childhood strongly disagree with you
BotsRuinedEverything@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
Idk who df y’all are but pot roast is still 100% a northeast Pennsylvania thing.
Kowowow@lemmy.ca 3 weeks ago
I’m more into beef stew than roast beef but man I’d love to be able to pick some up from fast food place

LengAwaits@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago
You should try this recipe, then.
Best seitan roast I’ve had.
altphoto@lemmy.today 3 weeks ago
Wow! That looks complicated but looks delicious!. I have to learn about saitan.
realitista@lemm.ee 3 weeks ago
I actually just finished eating that half an hour ago.
zymagoras777@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
No because scientists discovered that this food causes smol pp energy in you.
tacosplease@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago
Nah. Nothing wrong with it, but I either don’t have time for roast or have better things (to my taste) to cook with that time.
MutilationWave@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 weeks ago
Crock pot or pressure cooker will work just fine, just set the timer
Zedd_Prophecy@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago
That’s one of the meals I first cook when Fall begins, and a big 'ol vat of 5 meat chili.
MehBlah@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago
I haven’t done that for at least two weeks.
Valmond@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago
Love that when it gets together nicely.
Haven’t done one in ages though, what’s your best recipes out there?

I’ve switched to Ropa Vieja with rice. It’s so much better and can easily freeze leftovers.

You forgot cream of mushroom soup

The good old days…
SchmidtGenetics@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago
I’ll do that in bbq once in a bit still. But we usually do it the pressure cooker. Carrots seperate though.
hansolo@lemm.ee 3 weeks ago
…I can’t find it.
Where’s the Ed Sheeran bit? I’m sure there’s a reference in there.
Is he the carrot? He’s the carrot, isn’t he?
ObviouslyNotBanana@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago
Oh he’s in there
hansolo@lemm.ee 3 weeks ago
The potato?
Hmm… Maybe potato.
