Emeril Lagasse Pot Roast Recipe

You’ll start by making small slits in the meat and stuffing them with garlic for incredible flavor.
Next, sear the roast in a Dutch oven to get that beautiful, caramelized crust.
Don’t forget to sprinkle Emeril’s Essence seasoning on all sides for that extra kick!
Once seared, reduce the heat and let the flavors meld together perfectly.
