A tender and flavorful pot roast recipe that is easy to prepare and perfect for a comforting meal.
Preheat your oven to 250°F (120°C).
Preheating ensures even cooking from the start.
Season the beef roast generously with sea salt, freshly ground black pepper, garlic powder, and smoked paprika.
Rub the spices evenly over the roast for consistent flavor.
Place the seasoned roast on a large sheet of aluminum foil, and pour the beef broth over it.
Ensure the foil is large enough to wrap the roast completely.
Wrap the roast tightly in the foil, sealing all edges to prevent juices from escaping.
Double-wrap the foil if needed to avoid leaks.
Place the foil-wrapped roast on a baking pan to catch any potential drips.
Using a pan with raised edges is ideal for catching juices.
Bake the roast in the preheated oven for 5-6 hours, or until tender.
Check the roast's tenderness by gently pressing it through the foil.
Carefully remove the roast from the oven, let it rest for 10 minutes before unwrapping, and serve.
Resting allows the juices to redistribute, enhancing flavor.
