Dutch Oven Roast

·      1 2 to 3 pound Beef Roast

·      ¼ cup Cut Up Seasoning (See Kitchen Tools & Staples Post)

·      1 TSP Black Pepper

·      1 TBS Creole Seasoning

·      1 TBS Italian Seasoning

·      1 TSP Sea Salt

·      1 TBS Garlic Powder

·      ½ cup Red Wine/Water/Beef Broth (Whatever you Prefer)

Directions

Pre heat oven to 325, Heat a large dutch oven coated with Olive Oil on Medium High Heat. The dutch oven should get hot enough that you hear the oil sizzle. While pot is heating Season your roast on all sides with dry seasoning to your taste. Sear Roast on all sides, for about 1 minute each. (Don’t worry when you place the meat in the pot it will sizzle and create smoke this is a good thing it will settle)

Remove Roast from pot and turn off heat, add ½ cup of the liquid of your choice and ¼ cup cut up seasoning. Stir until incorporated well, add roast and cover with lid. Place in oven for 1 ½ to 2 hours in 325 degree oven until desired temperature is reached. (I like to baste the roast every 30 min. with cooking liquid to keep from drying)
