Steam-Baked Missouri Pot Roast

If you’re not familiar with Mississippi Pot Roast — one of the most popular recipes on the internet and quite possibly the most popular slow cooker recipe of all time — well, don’t worry. We’ve adapted it for the Anova Precision Oven, named it after our home state, and added a few of our favorite ingredients: garlic, onions, and beer.
The roasted malts in a stout add a smoky undertone to the braising liquid and fresh garlic and onions just make everything better. For optimal flavor, we also give the beef a quick sear before it goes in the oven.
The original Mississippi Pot Roast recipe takes six to eight hours, but with the power of steam, the Anova Precision Oven cuts the cook time in half; it’s ready in just three. (Though after it cooks for three hours, you can lower the oven to 150ºF (65ºC) and maintain full steam until you’re ready to eat.)
