A food dish made from an inexpensive cut of beef, such as the round or chuck, that is seared for a short amount of time to brown it. The Pot Roast is then placed in a covered pot with a small amount of liquid to be braised on the stove top or in the oven. This method of cooking makes a cheaper cut of meat much more tender. Vegetables are added to the pot during the cooking process to create a complete meal.
