I saw Paula making this on TV and knew I had to try it.... It makes your house on a cold day smell heavenly... I added some potatoes and carrots the last hour of cooking.
Ingredients:
1 (3 -4 lb) boneless chuck roast
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 cup onion, thinly sliced wedges
3 garlic cloves, crushed
2 bay leaves
1 (10 3/4 ounce) can cream of mushroom soup
1/4 cup red wine
2 tablespoons worcestershire sauce
1 tablespoon beef bouillon granules
3/4 cup water
1 cup salt
1/4 cup black pepper
1/4 cup garlic powder
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
2. For House Seasoning: Mix ingredients and store in an airtight container for up to 6 months.
3. Add the house seasoning, salt and pepper to a small bowl. Rub seasoning into the roast on both sides. Heat oil in a large skillet and brown the roast, searing it on both sides. Place the meat in a roaster pan. Add onions and garlic to skillet for 1 to 2 minutes to absorb leftover roast juice. Place into roaster iwth meat and add bay leaves.

7. Cooks Note:.
8. If the gravy is not thick enough, remove the meat from the pan and pour the gravy into a saucepan. Bring to a boil and thicken it by adding 2 T. of cornstarch mixed with 1/4 cup cold water, stirring constantly until thickened.
