Mom's Beef Roast

My mom taught me how to make one of the best beef roasts ever! It's super easy to make, and really is wonderful. The roast will make a delicious gravy too--so make sure to make some mashed potatoes to go with it!

• Ready In: 4 hrs 5 mins
• Serves: 6

Ingredients

• 3  lbs  roast (I use whatever...round, pot roast....whatever is on sale!)
• 2  tablespoons red wine vinegar
•  pepper
•  garlic powder
• 1  envelope  onion soup mix

Directions

1. Place roast in roaster pan and sprinkle with vinegar, pepper, garlic powder and the onion soup mix.
2. Cover roaster and bake at 325º-350º for at least 3-4 hours.
3. The last hour of cooking I remove the lid to brown the roast a bit.
4. Then with the drippings, I make gravy (remove roast and cover with foil. Heat the drippings on the stove over fairly high heat. Add more water if necessary, and bring to a boil. Whisk in a slurry of flour and water (fairly thick) stirring constantly to avoid lumps. Adjust salt and pepper.).
