Pot roast is an American beef dish[1] made by slow cooking a (usually tough) cut of beef in moist heat. Cuts such as chuck steak, bottom round, short ribs and 7-bone roast are preferred for this technique. (These are American terms for the cuts; different terms and butchering styles are used in other parts of the world.) While the toughness of their fibers makes such cuts of meat unsuitable for oven roasting, slow cooking tenderizes them, while the beef imparts some of its flavor to the water.
Browning the roast before adding liquid is an optional step to improve the flavor. Browning can occur at lower temperatures with a longer cooking time, but the result is less intense than a high temperature sear. Either technique can be used when making pot roast.[2] The result is tender, succulent meat and a rich liquid that lends itself to making gravy.
In the US, where it is also known as "Yankee pot roast",[3] the dish is often served with vegetables such as carrots, potatoes and onions simmered in the cooking liquid. Pot roast takes influences from the French dish boeuf à la mode, the German dish sauerbraten, and Ashkenazi meat stews. The more recent "Mississippi Pot Roast" is typically made with chuck, ranch flavored seasoning powder, and pepperoncini.[4]
