Ingredients

  • 1 3 pound beef chuck roast
  • 1 packet Onion soup mix
  • 1 can cream of mushroom soup
  • 1 can sliced mushrooms drained (optional) Sliced fresh mushrooms work well, too!

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 250 degrees.
  • Place roast on a large piece of heavy duty foil. Rub onion soup into roast, top with can of cream of mushroom soup, top with can of mushrooms (optional.)
  • Cover and tightly seal foil around roast. Place in roaster pan, cover and bake for 5-6 hours.
  • Remove roast from foil. Use droppings to prepare gravy if desired.

Notes

To make a simple gravy: Drain the fat from the drippings, add them to a saucepan and heat them on the stove. I added a little kitchen bouquet and another can of mushroom soup it made a quick and easy gravy to serve with mashed potatoes.
