Croc-Pot Pot Roast

Where did I get this recipe: My Mother (with my own little twist)

One of the best memories of my childhood was coming home from church on a Sunday afternoon, and smelling the pot roast cooking on the stove.  The entire house would smell so delicious.  As I’ve gotten older, I’ve learned how to make my Mother’s Pot Roast with my own little twist.  With each passing year I have tried to make my Pot Roast the best it can possibly be.  

My brothers have their own take on this recipe, but I think mine is the best! (Those sounds you hear are my brothers arguing with that last sentence!) Actually, my brother Dave makes a mean Pot Roast.  I can only hopes to one day have mine taste like his.

Maybe if we are lucky, my brothers will share their Pot Roast recipes on this blog…

This recipe is SUPER easy.  If you have a Croc-Pot, this is a perfect Sunday afternoon meal for you!

Croc-Pot Pot Roast

Serves 8-10 People

1 2-3 lb. Chuck Roast

1 Yellow Onion

2 Packets Lipton Onion Soup Mix

4 Beef Bouillon Cubes

1 bag Miniature Carrots

Water

Season All

1. Place 4 Beef Bouillon Cubes in the bottom of the Croc-Pot.

2. Add 1 Packet Lipton Onion Soup Mix.

3. Add 2 Cups hot water and mix.  Don’t worry if the Beef Bouillon Cubes don’t dissolve, just try and mix everything together the best you can.

4. Slice Yellow Onion in to long pieces and place in the Croc-Pot

5. Add half bag of Baby Carrots and mix.

6. Place Chuck Roast in Croc-Pot and season top.  I like to sprinkle Season All and pepper over the top.

7. Add enough water to cover the entire Chuck Roast.

8. Add remaining Packet of Lipton Onion Soup Mix over the top of Chuck Roast -  Add a little bit of water over the top to make sure entire packet is dissolved over Roast.

9. Add remaining half bag of Baby Carrots over top of Roast

10. Cover Croc-Pot and cook on low for 8 hours.

Ingredients in Pictures:

What would one of my recipes be without my trusted Red Croc-Pot?

I was taught the more fat you can see, the more tender your meat will be when cooked

The Yellow Onion really adds a delicious flavor to the Roast

The Beefy Onion flavor is the only one I will buy -  makes the Roast unbelievable!
Remember to add BOTH packets for this recipe!

Remember to add 4 of these magic cubes

Baby Carrots - So sad they are separated from their parents

The magic spice!  Makes everything better - trust me!

Water.....It doesn't have to be bottled water, it  was the only picture I could find

The smell in your house will be AMAZING!  In my book, there is nothing better than having your house smell like good home-cooked food.

Your family will love this recipe, I promise!
