Bison Pot Roast with Onions and Mushrooms

This recipe kicks off my bison days with a hearty old-school style pot roast. I roasted up some onions and mushrooms to go with it, and they sure did.

Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 11.5 lb Bison Chuck Roast
  • 1 lb Mushrooms
  • 2– Large Onions
  • 1 Tbsp of Garlic Powder
  • 1 Tbsp of Italian Seasoning
  • 1 Tbsp of Dried Basil
  • 1/2 Tbsp of Red Pepper Flakes (optional)
  • 1 1/2 cups of Water

Instructions

  1. Cut the onions into chunks and place them into a baking pan. Clean the mushrooms with a dry paper towel and cut them in half or quarters and add to the pan with the onions.
  2. Add all seasonings to the onions and mushrooms, and stir well to coat everything evenly.
  3. Place the bison roast on top of the seasoned onions and mushrooms.

  4. Pour water into the pan until there is about 1/2 inch of water in the bottom.
  5. Place the pan in a preheated oven at 400 degrees F and bake for 50 minutes.
  6. Remove the roast from the oven and let it rest for about 5 minutes before slicing.
  7. Serve the roast with a generous helping of the onions and mushrooms.
    Rest for 5 minutes and enjoy. Look at that pink!
  8. Reserve the broth from the pan to drizzle over the sliced meat, and save the remaining broth as a soup base for later use.

Notes

Unless you’re feeding a large family, you’ll have leftover roast, and you’ll be glad you do when you use it to make my cabbage rolls and quick and easy soup.
