**Savor the Essence of Autumn with a Harvest Pot Roast Feast:**

As the leaves change color and the air turns crisp, it's time to gather around the table and indulge in the comforting flavors of a classic harvest pot roast. This hearty and flavorful dish is a culinary celebration of the season's bounty, featuring tender chunks of beef braised to perfection in a rich and savory broth. Accompanied by a medley of autumn vegetables, herbs, and spices, this pot roast is a symphony of flavors that will warm your soul and fill your home with the aroma of the season.

**Recipes Included:**

1. **Classic Harvest Pot Roast:**

- This timeless recipe embodies the essence of a traditional pot roast, featuring tender beef chuck roast braised in a flavorful broth made with red wine, beef broth, and a blend of aromatic herbs and spices. The result is a fall-apart tender roast that melts in your mouth, surrounded by a medley of carrots, celery, and onions.

2. **Slow Cooker Harvest Pot Roast:**

- For those who prefer a hands-off approach, this slow cooker version offers convenience without compromising on taste. Simply brown the beef chuck roast and vegetables in a skillet before transferring them to the slow cooker. Add the flavorful braising liquid, cover, and let the slow cooker work its magic, resulting in a tender and succulent pot roast that's perfect for busy weeknights or lazy weekends.

3. **Dutch Oven Harvest Pot Roast:**

- If you own a Dutch oven, this recipe is a must-try. The natural heat retention of the Dutch oven creates a moist and tender roast, while the vegetables caramelize beautifully. The addition of apples and cranberries adds a touch of sweetness and tartness that complements the richness of the beef.

4. **Vegetarian Harvest Pot Roast:**

- For a meatless take on this classic dish, this recipe features hearty portobello mushrooms as the star ingredient. Braised in a flavorful vegetable broth infused with herbs and spices, the mushrooms take on a meaty texture and umami flavor, while the addition of roasted vegetables creates a colorful and nutritious dish.

5. **Harvest Pot Roast Soup:**

- Transform your pot roast leftovers into a comforting and flavorful soup. Simply shred the leftover beef and add it to a pot with the remaining braising liquid, vegetables, and a touch of cream. Simmer until heated through, and serve with crusty bread or crackers for a satisfying and cozy meal.

FALL STOUT POT ROAST WITH AUTUMN VEGETABLES



Fall Stout Pot Roast with Autumn Vegetables image

Provided by Geoffrey Zakarian

Categories     main-dish

Time 12h10m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 18

4 pounds boneless beef chuck roast, tied (ask your butcher to do this)
Kosher salt and freshly cracked black pepper
1/4 cup canola oil
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
2 carrots, peeled and cut into large chunks
2 turnips, peeled and cut into large chunks
1 red onion, cut into large chunks
2 tablespoons tomato paste
5 cloves garlic, peeled
3 sprigs fresh thyme
2 bay leaves
Two 12-ounce bottles stout beer
2 cups beef stock
4 tablespoons butter
2 cups frozen pearl onions
2 cups frozen green peas
1/4 cup thinly sliced chives
2 tablespoons chopped fresh tarragon

Steps:

  • The night before, season the chuck roast liberally with salt and pepper and refrigerate uncovered.
  • When ready to cook, preheat the oven to 300 degrees F.
  • In a large Dutch oven, heat the canola oil over medium-high heat. Season the chuck roast again with salt and pepper and dust with flour, shaking off the excess. Sear on all sides, browning the meat evenly, 4 to 6 minutes per side. Remove the roast to a plate, then add the carrots, turnips and onion to the pot. Lower the heat to medium and cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are caramelized, 6 to 8 minutes. Stir in the tomato paste, garlic, thyme and bay leaves and cook another 2 minutes.
  • Add the roast back to the pot, then add the beer and beef stock. Nestle the roast down among the vegetables so that it is mostly submerged in the liquid. Bring to a simmer. Cover, leaving the lid slightly ajar, and place in the oven to cook under very tender, 3 to 3 1/2 hours, testing with a small knife for tenderness after 3 hours.
  • Meanwhile, heat the butter in saucepot over medium-low heat, add the pearl onions and peas and season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the onions and peas are warmed through, 3 to 5 minutes.
  • Once the roast is done, remove it from the pot and cut off the string. Discard the thyme and bay leaves. If you'd like the sauce thicker, place the Dutch oven back on the stove and bring to a simmer over medium-high heat. Simmer, stirring occasionally, until the liquid is reduced to the desired thickness (you're looking for a rich and smooth sauce).
  • To plate, slice the roast into thick slices. Place the vegetables on a platter, then the beef, then ladle the sauce over. Spoon the peas and onions on top and sprinkle with the chives and tarragon.

AUTUMN POT ROAST II



Autumn Pot Roast II image

A perfect Autumn pot roast! My mom made this recipe for our family when I was a little girl. We all loved it and now I make it for my husband who loves it just the same. If you want carrots with the pot roast, add them to the pot for the last 30 minutes of cooking.

Time 3h40m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 (4 pound) boneless beef chuck roast
2 cloves garlic, minced
4 tablespoons butter
1 large onion, sliced thin
12 whole peppercorns
12 whole allspice berries
1 tablespoon finely grated raw horseradish
½ cup bay leaf, crumbled
½ cup rum
½ cup water

Steps:

  • Mix together salt and flour, and rub mixture into the meat. In a Dutch oven, cook garlic in butter over medium heat. Place meat into pan, and brown on all sides. Remove beef from pan.
  • Arrange sliced onions in the bottom of the Dutch oven, and then place the meat on top of the onions. Season with peppercorns, allspice, horseradish, and bay leaf. Pour in rum.

AUTUMN HARVEST'S BEST PORK ROAST



Autumn Harvest's Best Pork Roast image

Pork, when cooked to perfection, is my favorite meat. I started serving this dish last fall when apples were being harvested and it was a huge hit. I like granny smith but many others will do just fine. Some people like to eat the apples with the pork. I prefer them just to flavor the meat and sauce.

Categories     Pork

Time 8h10m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 -3 lbs pork loin
coarse black pepper, freshly ground
salt
6 apples, quartered
1/4 cup apple juice
1/2 cup white wine
3/4 cup peach jam
3 tablespoons brown sugar
1 teaspoon ground ginger

Steps:

  • Rub pork loin with pepper and salt to taste.
  • Brown sides in frying pan.
  • Line apples on the bottom of a crockpot.
  • Lay pork loin on top of apples.
  • Whisk the remaining ingredients together and pour over pork loin and apples.
  • Cover and cook on low for 6-8 hours.
  • *Note:I use Livingston's Chablis Blanc which is about$4.00 a bottle in the grocery store. However, Beringer's Chenin Blanc or a nice German white wine (like Reisling) would be lovely as well.
  • **Note:I use my mom's homemade peach jam. If you use plain peach jam be sure to add 1/2 tsp cinnamon and a pinch of ground clove for a wonderful flavor.

AUTUMN POT ROAST



Autumn Pot Roast image

When the brisk autumn arrives, I tend to cook with fresh apple cider quite a bit. There is nothing like the crisp, tangy taste! Over the years, I began to add it to my pot roast recipe, and it became a family favorite. It just adds a hint of sweetness that really lifts the gravy from average to wonderful. Even "non-Pot Roast Lovers" (which there happen to be quite a few) enjoy this twist. I also know most people like potatoes in their pot roast, but I always serve my pot roast with either Recipe #290398 or Recipe #343221. I would love to try this in the slow cooker sometime, too!

3 tablespoons fresh apple cider
1/2 cup tomato juice

Remove roast and vegetables to a serving platter; tent with foil to keep warm.
  • After de-fatting pan juices, add water measure 3 cups. Mix flour and cold water until smooth and stir into pan juices. Bring to a boil and cook, stirring constantly, for 2 minutes or until thickened. Season with salt and pepper. Slice roast and add back to Dutch oven with vegetables. Pour in gravy. Turn to coat evenly with gravy, then transfer to serving platter to serve.

Tips

  • Sear the meat: Searing the meat before braising it helps to develop a rich, caramelized flavor. Be sure to sear the meat in a hot skillet over medium-high heat until it is browned on all sides.
  • Use a good quality braising liquid: The braising liquid is what will flavor the meat, so it is important to use a good quality liquid. Some good options include beef broth, chicken broth, red wine, or beer.
  • Add vegetables and herbs: Vegetables and herbs will help to add flavor and depth to the pot roast. Some good options include carrots, celery, onions, garlic, rosemary, and thyme.
  • Cook the pot roast low and slow: Pot roast is a dish that benefits from being cooked low and slow. This allows the meat to become tender and fall apart. Cook the pot roast on low heat for at least 4 hours, or until the meat is cooked through.
  • Thicken the sauce: Once the pot roast is cooked, you can thicken the sauce by adding a cornstarch slurry. A cornstarch slurry is a mixture of cornstarch and water that is added to the sauce and cooked until it thickens.

Conclusion

Pot roast is a classic comfort food that is perfect for a cold fall day. By following these tips, you can make a pot roast that is tender, flavorful, and fall-apart delicious. If you are looking for a delicious and easy fall recipe, give this harvest autumn pot roast a try.
