POT ROAST IN THE CROCK POT

RECIPE AND PHOTO SUBMITTED BY Kristy L Howey

Pot Roast- In the Crock Pot! 

Here’s what you need:

3-4 pound chuck roast (depending on the size of your crock pot)
3 non baking potatoes (I really prefer the creaminess of yukon gold)
Half a red onion
1 cup baby carrots
Big handful of green beans, stems cut off
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon season salt.

All I did was put the roast on the bottom of the pot, put the season salt on it, then threw in the veggies, potatoes and onion cut into big chunks and everything else thrown in on top. Then I covered them in the seasonings and salt and pepper. You can add other seasonings if there’s a flavor you prefer- These are just the seasonings we like here. I put the top on, put it on high for four hours (or you can do low for six or more hours). When we ate, the meat was SO tender, the veggies were perfect and not overdone or soggy.

• Julie Chalfant Capes I love crock pot roast. I do it every once in a while . I just put in a sm- med. roast , with 2 packets of brown gravy, 1/4 -1/2 c. water, a mixture of flour and water, not much, maybe 1/4 a cup ( shaken up together) . 1 packet of stew seasoning, some carrots , onions, stir it all together and that’s it. Cook slow all night or all day while at work.. The stew seasoning gives it the best flavor.
