This beef pot roast is lovely served with mashed potatoes. The real secret here is making sure you sear the meat before the long, slow braise.

  • salt and pepper: (to taste)
  • ½ tablespoons all-purpose flour: 2 piece (divided, or more if needed)
  • vegetable oil: 2 Tbsp
  • butter: 1 Tbsp
  • ounces sliced mushrooms: 8 piece
