     Title: Mom's Pot Roast
Categories: Beef, Vegetables, Herbs, Pasta
     Yield: 4 Servings

     3 lb Rump roast
          Salt & fresh ground pepper
     3 tb Olive oil
     2    Celery ribs; chopped
     1    Carrot; chopped
     1    Onion; chopped
     4 cl Garlic; minced
     1 c  Red wine or cranberry juice
    28 oz Can crushed tomatoes
     1 c  Water
     2    Bay leaves
     1 lb Dry pasta shells

 Set the oven @ 350 F/175 C.

 Season the meat with salt & pepper. Heat the oil in a large Dutch
 oven over high heat. Sear the meat all over, about 2 minutes per
 each side.

 Move the meat to the side (or remove it from the pot altogether if
 necessary), add the celery, carrot, and onion, and brown the
 vegetables, stirring occasionally, about 3 minutes.

 Add the garlic and cook for a minute or 2 longer. Add the wine to
 deglaze the pot, scraping up the browned bits on the bottom. Add
 the tomatoes, water and bay leaves (and the meat if you removed
 it). Bring the liquid to a simmer and taste for seasoning. Add more
 salt if necessary. Cover the pot and bake, basting the meat
 occasionally, until tender, about 3 hours.

 About 20 minutes before the meat is tender, bring a pot of water to
 a boil and salt liberally. Add the shells, give it a stir and cook
 until al dente according to the package instructions. Drain the
 pasta.

 To serve, you can pull the meat apart with a couple of forks right
 in the pot at the table. Serve with the pasta, plenty of sauce and
 vegetables, tossing them all together.
