PORT (POT) ROAST IN A PAN FOR TWO IN A 1.5 HOURS
This is something I discovered the other day when hubby came home and I hadn't started the pot roast in time. I had a very small 1.5lb chunk of pot roast (chuck) and very little time to do something with it. Feel free to dabble with it. Personally, it's the PORT that makes the difference on this one.

Steps:
- Season meat on both sides and on the edges with seasonings.
- Brown meat on MED in the heaviest frying pan you have. You should have it just hot enough to hear it sizzle but not so hot that you can't leave without touching for about 5-7 minutes on each side. The trick here is to get it to brown. Try to avoid using a non-stick type pan. It will not give as good of crust. (personal experience). I use a small "Martha Stewart" cast iron frying pan that I got at Kmart for under $10. If your only pot that is heavy is a dutch oven then use it instead. The trick is to "sizzle it" for as long as possible without burning or turning it. The thicker and tougher it looks the better.
- Once the meat has browned sufficiently add the port and water just enough to barely cover the meat and cover. Continue cooking but lower the temp to as low as possible but still have it bubbling for 40 minutes.
- During the last 20 minutes at the veggies and try to wiggle them in to the sauce as much as you can. Add a touch more salt and water if you need to.
- Cover and continue cooking for 20 minutes.
POT ROAST
At Spoon and Stable, his Minneapolis restaurant, Gavin Kaysen cooks a version of his grandmother Dorothy's pot roast using paleron (or flat iron roast), the shoulder cut of beef commonly used in pot au feu, as well as housemade sugo finto, a vegetarian version of meat sauce made with puréed tomatoes and minced carrot, celery, onions and herbs. This recipe uses a chuck roast and tomato paste, both easier to find and still delicious.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 340 degrees. Season meat generously with salt and pepper. On the stove top, heat oil in a large Dutch oven, or other heavy roasting pan with a lid, over medium-high heat. Sear the meat until a dark crust forms, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Remove meat to a plate.
- Reduce heat to medium and add butter to the pan. Melt the butter and add the whole head of garlic and vegetables, stirring frequently and scraping the bottom of the pot, until the vegetables start to color, 8 to 10 minutes.
- Add tomato paste and cook, stirring frequently, until it darkens slightly, about 5 minutes.
- Add bay leaves, rosemary and wine and cook, stirring occasionally, until liquid is reduced to a thick gravy consistency, 5 to 7 minutes.
- Return meat to the pot. Add broth, then cover the pot and transfer to the oven. Cook for 2 hours 20 minutes.
- Let roast sit at room temperature for at least 10 minutes. Remove meat to a cutting board to slice. Discard bay leaves and rosemary stems. Squeeze any garlic cloves remaining in their skins into the stew and discard the skins. Serve slices of meat in shallow bowls along with the vegetables and a generous amount of cooking liquid ladled over top.

Tips:
- Choose the right cut of beef: Chuck roast or rump roast are good options for pot roast. These cuts are tough, but they become tender when cooked slowly.
- Brown the beef before cooking: Browning the beef adds flavor and helps to keep it moist. You can brown the beef in a skillet over medium-high heat for a few minutes per side.
- Use a good quality port wine: The port wine adds a rich, fruity flavor to the pot roast. Use a port wine that you would enjoy drinking on its own.
- Cook the pot roast slowly: The best way to cook a pot roast is to cook it slowly over low heat. This allows the flavors to develop and the beef to become tender.
- Let the pot roast rest before serving: Once the pot roast is cooked, let it rest for 10-15 minutes before slicing and serving. This allows the juices to redistribute throughout the meat.
Conclusion:
This recipe for Port Pot Roast in a Pan for Two in 15 Hours is a delicious and easy way to make a classic dish. The port wine adds a rich, fruity flavor to the pot roast, and the beef is cooked until it is fall-apart tender. This dish is perfect for a special occasion or a simple weeknight meal.
