This is the only way I'll do pot roast, and I've tried many over the years. Talk about the perfect comfort food! I usually make mashed potatoes, dumplings or egg noodles to go with this and smother all in the delicious gravy. Ingredients:
3 -5 lbs chuck roast |
1 medium onion, peeled and sliced |
1 -2 lb carrot, peeled (if thin, leave whole, if chunky, cut in half) |
1 (1 1/4 ounce) envelope dry onion soup mix, divided |
1 (10 3/4 ounce) can condensed cream of mushroom soup |
2 tablespoons water |
1 1/2 teaspoons paprika |
1 teaspoon onion powder (from soup envelope) |
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder |
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper |
Directions:
1. Put 2 tablespoons water in bottom of crock pot. 2. Place carrots in crock pot. 3. Combine paprika, onion soup powder, garlic powder and pepper (making a dry rub). 4. Rub into roast, coating all sides. 5. Place roast in cooker. 6. Sprinkle 1/2 of the remaining soup mix over roast. 7. Layer sliced onions on top. 8. Sprinkle with remaining soup mix. 9. Spoon cream soup over top. 10. Cook low 8 to 10 hours. |
