One Pot Pork Roast Dinner (or beef)

"This was a favorite of mine growing up that my Mom used to make (likely still does). It is really good, a great tasing gravy type sauce, a whole meal in one and it tastes like you worked hard. Great meal for company when you dont want to spend the day in the kitchen. The meat can also be cup up, mixed with the veggies and made into a stew for freezing afterwards, good on bread too. I have done beef and pork roasts this way. "

  1. What a wonderful meal we had. This recipe is perfect. Perfectly easy to assemble, and perfectly east to eat!!!. It was so good, all of the flavors melded together. It was wonderful. I did a bad thing, though. I only used a small 2 1/2 lb. roast, so I didn't have any leftovers. I will do better next time I make this. I used 2 onions, quartered, and used Cream of Mushroom soup. This is terrific, thanks for sharing.
     
  2. One of the best roast dinners I've had. Don't usually like recipes with creamed soup, but the tomatoes cut that taste well. I don't like onions very much, but the rest of the family does, so I cut onions in half and nestled in sauce. Family well pleased!
     
  3. Thanks for an easy tasty recipe! Served it over rice.
     
  4. Excellent recipe - I used a pork roast with ribs...chicken and Mushroom soup and a can of mushroom soup with roasted garlic. Sprinkled a package of beefy onion soup over the top and put it into a slow oven for about 5 hours. It was AMAZING!!! Fall off the bone tender with TONS of flavor! Thanks Tara - Great Recipe
     
  5. This is so easy and very tasty! I didn't have any celery, but next time I will. I also added 1 T. of Worchestershire sauce to the soup mixture. This should also work well in a crockpot on low for 8 hours. Thanks for posting Tara.

  1. Tara, this was superb! I however, cut the entire recipe in half, and used a ( 2.55 lb. ) boneless pork loin center cut roast, and baked it for 2 hrs. and 40 minutes. I did spray the inside of baking dish with a nonstick vegetable spray, since I was using a very lean pork roast, that was trimmed of most it's fat. I cut each potato into 8pcs., the carrots and celery into 2-inch pcs., and I used jarred minced garlic, instead of garlic powder. I also chose to use the dried rosemary, instead of the dried thyme. This was great reheated on a low temp, in the microwave. Also, I figured when using a pork roast, they should at least be baked in a 325 degree oven, ( not 300 ) and baked 1 hour per each pound.
