Sunday Pot Roast

We checked out the newly renovated Safeway in Belle View. Usually we frequent Super H Mart, Trader Joe's or Whole Foods in Alexandria. Each has their own advantages and disadvantages. When I feel like cooking Asian food for the week, we head to Super H, but it's the farthest away. When time is short or we feel like Italian or traditional American, we go to TJs or Whole Foods. 
The renovated Safeway has a more extensive meat department. We picked up a beef chuck roast on sale. The produce area has varying degrees of fresh vegetables, some a little worse for the wear. I also picked up an oven bag to cook the pot roast and vegetables in, which definitely helped with cleanup afterwards.
 After two hours in a 350F oven.
With the liquids from the bag, I made a rich gravy to spoon over the roast and vegetables.
