Gracie's top stove beef pot roast...5-6 folks

Coat (big) pot bottom slightly with veg. oil.

After coating beef sides (possibly 2 -2# roasts stacked) with flour-salt-pepper,

cover pot and sear (medium-325F) 4 lb.+   beef both sides...15 minutes.

(3/4 lb to one lb per person)---type beef= arm, chuck, round.

*Dump in 2 cans (Campbell's) beef broth/bullion, and enough water to cover meat.

Go 2 hours+ @ 325F...lifting/turning meat periodically. 

Add vegetables (I use-- tatoes skinned then quartered, chopped celery, chopped carrots)...and cook for another hour, to top of pot (& cover).

Then check tatoes and beef for softness.

*Can also sprinkle in a little minced garlic and whole onion (maybe 2) cut up,  during "beef- only" section.
