Bacon Wrapped Chuck Roast.

BACON Wrapped Chuck Roast........ as with anything.. BACON can only make it that much better!!

Ingredients:
Large 3-4 lbs Chuck Roast
2-4 large Carrots or small bag of baby carrots
2-3 Stalks Celery
1 Med. Onion
Lots of Garlic (I use a hold head. Leave skin on, but separate cloves)
Salt
Pepper
Arrowroot
and BACON (nitrate free/uncured)


Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees
Salt and Pepper, to taste, Chuck Roast and Wrap in Bacon strips.
Chop Onion, Celery and Carrots in large chunks, peel paper off Garlic but leave the skin on each clove.
Place roast on top of onions, add Celery and Carrots and Garlic around the Roast in the pan.
Add about a 1/2 cup or so of water or beef stock to the pan.
Cover and bake for approx 3-31/2 hours..

When Roast is finished baking, remove from the pan, along with the veggies. Peel the roasted garlic and mash, add back into the roasting pan with the juices and place on low heat, add in a bit of arrowroot to thicken... viola.. tasty sauce to smother your veggies!

Mashed Cauliflower goes great with this!!

Note: This dish can be made in the crock pot as well. Just place all ingredients into crock pot and place on low for 6hrs or longer..
