Greetings! Today I want to share with you how I make my pot roast. I know that there are as many recipes for pot roast as there are cooks, but this is how I like to do it and it is quick (and slow) and easy! You could do this in a low oven for a little less time over the course of an afternoon, but it will be a bit drier. Here is what you need to make this recipe:

1 bottom round or rump roast 2 to 4 pounds
2 cups fresh carrots (I used the baby carrots)
1 medium onion sliced
4 cloves of garlic smashed
2 envelopes of onion soup mix (1 box)
1 can of diced tomatoes (14 ounce)
2 beef bullion cubes
1 teaspoon of marjoram
2 bay leaves
1 sprig of fresh rosemary or 1 teaspoon of dried
1 teaspoon of cracked black pepper
4 cups of water

Place carrots in bottom of your crock pot and put the roast fat side down on top. Add in the onions, tomatoes, soup mix, bullion cubes and spices as well as the water. Place crock in the heating sleeve and set on high put your lid on and go do something for 3 to 4 hours. When you can smell the roast check on it. Flip it over and put the lid back on and turn the temperature to low. Remember, not to take the lid off too many times, because it takes a long time for the crock pot to heat back up again. Now wait another 2 to 3 hours until the meat can easily be torn with a fork. Serve with potatoes of your choice and maybe a nice salad and some bread. You may choose to thicken the broth for a gravy or just serve it as we did au jus.

I hope you try this and I hope you enjoy it! Until next time, See Ya!

  • im making this now....been on high for an hour, cant wait to start smelling this..my wife and daughter are gonna be happy tonight!!!

  • Excellent, i'll be using this as a guide for my Christmas Day dinner!

  • I hear that it is good to brown the outside of the meat before you put it in the slow cooker.

  • I made this last night it was a hit very very good thanks!!

  • What I would do is cut up a red potatoes and add to the slow cooker mm mm good. They soak up the juices /drool

  • Is the onion soup mix and beef bouillon crucial?

  • I'm just getting into slow cooking, and this looks like a great recipe.

  • Yummy!!!!!!!

  • At 6:11 I says 4 mins....I was thinking you might have meant 4 hours since you came back at 8....I am sure someone else has mentioned this though....looks very good though!!

  • I was worried that I'd made a mistake when I put tomatos in with my roast. Your video has given me idea's for my next roast.

  • Wow! Thank you so much for posting this! I'm going to try it tonite!

  • Roast beef is my favorite.

  • I'd love to see a video of you making Chimichanga's like you mentioned...yum! That meat looked so tender and delicious....my mouth is watering!!! :D

  • The slow cooker is great. I just added about a quart of home made maranara sauce (spell check please) and meatballs. Added some beer to that sucker, set it to hight, and hope for the best.

  • Damned girl...what's for dinner tonight???? Half way starving right now and watching your video, seems i need a mop first to clean up the drool!!! I can smell it, I can taste it and I want it!!!

  • @themrzlingo it is spelled "much". I can't believe you are going to be procreating.

  • Noreen, You're the best! I'll be using this recipe tomorrow. What ever would we do without your great recipes and sweet ways?

    never trust a skinny chef

  • Luv The Shows im a new momy just learning how to cook and dont have that mutch money. your shows show me how too cook alot of food without spening that mutch, big fan dont stop what your doing :)

  • wow, this look amazing! Thank you so much!!!!

  • I just got my 1st crock pot today.

    I am planning on pot roast to be the 1st thing i will make in it.

    i looked at several recipes online, & yours is the the one i think i will try.

    the only things i think i may change is, thickening the grave (a little), & mashed potatoes, instead of boiled.

    looks great!

    God Bless

  • Thank you for sharing! I enjoyed watching you ... hubby requested pot roast for dinner tonight. (I am 22 y/o & never made it before) *fingers crossed* it turns out.

    God Bless
