Seven bone roast, Dutch oven style

 

Ingredients 

One 7-bone roast, about 4lbs.
One packet of onion soup mix or tomato bouillon, (my favorite)
One can of condensed cream of mushroom soup
About 10-12 oz. of red wine

Directions

Lay the roast in the bottom of your dutch oven.
Cover the roast with the dry soup mix. If using the tomato bouillon, use about 4 tablespoons.
Next spread the cream of mushroom soup over the top of the roast.
Now fill the soup can with red wine and gently drizzle it over the roast.
Cover and cook at 250-275F for 6 or 7 hours.
While it’s cooking, you may want to leave the house, the aroma of this roast cooking will be amazing,  as will be the flavor and texture.
