Rindsey, I am not into all that messing around, if I am doing a roast in the oven where I have control of things, and not these new finagled slow cooking things unless I am really forced too, then I season the roast well, pierce holes and push cloves of garlic in the holes. Sprinkle dry herbs over the roast, place on a rack and add water to the base of the pan. Then I prepare my potatoes, pumpkin and carrots, cut them into good size pieces, put them in a deep container, drizzle EVOO and season well with sea salt and freshly ground black pepper. and add to the roast. I use the pan juices to make the gravy.





Chris
chop up some veg (chunky) onions, carrots, celery, leak.


place them on a baking tray put your meat on top of the veg


you can throw in some garlic salt pepper.add a pint of water.


cover with tin foil and cook as meat says take the foil off for the last 20Min's baste every 5 Min's if you want.take your meat out to rest use the juice that's in the tray to make a gravy.





for beef you can rub mustard over it before cooking





ham is nice covered in honey and brown sugar





pork is nice roasted with just salt on the skin to make the crackling i wouldn't tin foil this at all.





chicken is nice with butter, lemon and tarragon rubbed under the skin cut the rind off the lemon though or it could taste to bitter.





lamb with sprigs of rosemary and garlic stab the meat to make little holes in stuff the holes with fresh rosemary and garlic salt and pepper.





venison is nice roasted slowly with red wine and juniper Berry's


swap the pint of watter for red wine and throw a hand full of Berry's in.
Those ways are filled with tons of salt and fake flavors.





The best way is a good sprinkled of seasoned salt (still less sodium than onion soup mix) and pepper. Sometimes I also add a bit or worcestershire before the dry stuff.





Add one dark beer, some onion chunks and possibly garlic if you want. Add the carrots and potatoes as well. You could also add celery.





Cook until good and tender. Just keep in mind that no matter how you cook it, if the roast is very lean and doesn't have much fat it will be dry and gross.
You don't need any soup. Just pepper the meat and cook, adding vegetables such as carrots, onion, celery, potatoes, or any other vegetables you like.
In the beginning (lol), roast were cooked without soup and/or the now famous dry onion soup mix.
