Used to swear by searing meat. Not after my latest pot roast. Juicier without it.

My buddy skipped the sear on a braise last week and the guy couldn't believe how tender it turned out.

Skipping the sear totally makes sense since, like skyler_lewis45 said, the liquid does all the real work anyway.

Consider that searing might not help when you cook meat in liquid.
