Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- Season the roast with salt and pepper. In a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat, add the oil. When the oil is hot, add the roast and sear on all sides until well browned, about 5 minutes. Remove to a plate.
- Add the celery, carrots and onions and saute until caramelized on the edges, about 5 minutes. Add the flour, garlic, thyme, bay leaves and rosemary. Stir to incorporate the flour into the oil and cook until the flour smells toasty, about 2 minutes.
- Pour in the wine and bring to a boil. Add the roast back to the pot, along with the stock and potatoes. Bring to a rapid simmer and cover tightly. Place in the oven and cook, covered, until the meat is just tender (a knife will slide out easily with no resistance), about 2 hours 30 minutes. Remove the meat to a cutting board.
- Let the sauce sit for a few minutes, and then spoon off any fat that has risen to the surface (or pour into a fat-separating measuring cup, pour off the fat and add the sauce back to the pot). Return the sauce to a simmer. Whisk in the mustard and horseradish and season with salt and pepper if necessary. Discard the bay leaves and stir in the parsley if using.
- Carve the meat into 1/2-inch-thick slices against the grain, and serve with the sauce and vegetables.
DUTCH OVEN NEW ENGLAND POT ROAST
My grandmother used to make this Pot Roast all the time. The key is using a little better cut of meat then "Chuck", and cooking slowly. I have embelished the recipe slightly, using wine and more herbs. My grandmother was a tea-totaler! By cooking at a lower oven setting, the meat will just fall apart! I use a top of the round roast, but you can also use a bottom of the round.

NEW ENGLAND CROCK POT ROAST
I'm not a horseradish fan but my husband is, so when I found this recipe in a Betty Crocker cookbook I decided to give it a try. The horseradish completely mellows into this wonderful flavor that isn't hot or spicy and the gravy made with the juices is so yummy. No extra seasonings needed. The original recipe called for 1 tsp of black pepper but my family found it a bit too peppery so we cut back on that. Be sure to serve buns to clean up the plate with! We think this one is worth a try!

NEW ENGLAND POT ROAST
Having lived in New England for many years while growing up I developed a great appreciation for the thriftiness of New Englanders. They use the most economical cut of meat and the vegetables that are in season. Well they did back in day. Today with the availability of most vegetables year round the recipe can be the same any...

Steps:
- 1. Over high heat, pour sufficient oil to cover the bottom of a large Dutch oven or other large heavy pot (I use a large French enameled iron pot), generously salt and pepper both sides of the roast and sear meat until well browned on both sides. Remove meat and pour off oil. Return pot to medium heat and add chopped carrot, celery, onion and the garlic. Cook stirring, adding a small amount of oil if necessary, until softened but not browned. Sprinkle flour over vegetables and stir for 2-3 minutes. Return meat, adding water, tomato paste and herbs.
- 2. Bring to a simmer on top of the stove, cover (use aluminum foil under cover if it does not fit tightly). Place into preheated 325-degree oven and cook for 2 hours. Check at 1 hour and turn meat if it is not covered by liquid; add additional water if liquid is too thick - it should be the consistency of thin gravy.
- 3. At 2 - 2 ¼ hours, add remaining vegetables; the time varies according to size. Cook for a total of 3 hours. If the vegetables are not quite cooked, cover and let sit - cooking will continue using retained heat. Check for seasoning, adding salt or pepper to taste. Skim excess fat from the liquid, cut meat into serving size pieces, arrange on a heated platter and surround with vegetables. Moisten with some of the liquid, pass the remainder at the table and enjoy a true New England tradition.

Tips:
- Use quality ingredients, especially the meat. Look for well-marbled chuck roast or rump roast.
- Brown the meat well before braising. This will develop flavor and help to keep the meat moist. Use a Dutch oven or other heavy pot with a tight-fitting lid.
- Add plenty of vegetables to the pot roast. This will help to create a flavorful broth and add nutrients to the dish. Some good options include carrots, celery, onions, potatoes, and turnips.
- Season the pot roast generously with salt and pepper. You can also add other herbs and spices, such as garlic, thyme, rosemary, and bay leaves.
- Braise the pot roast for at least 3 hours, or until the meat is fall-apart tender. The longer you braise it, the more flavorful it will be.
- Serve the pot roast with mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or rice. You can also make a gravy from the braising liquid.
Conclusion:
New England Pot Roast is a classic comfort food that is easy to make and always a crowd-pleaser. The combination of tender beef, flavorful vegetables, and rich gravy is sure to satisfy everyone at the table. So next time you're looking for a hearty and delicious meal, give this recipe a try.
