This is a super family meal that is quick, easy, and everyone will rave about it. Using the slow cooker/crock pot gives you time to make the sides and clean up the kitchen before the meal! We usually serve with a veggie and a starch and you can add a can of mushrooms to the gravy as well if desired. Also simply double the recipe if you are serving more people. Ingredients:
2 lbs beef chuck (i prefer a leaner piece) or 2 lbs round roast (i prefer a leaner piece) |
1 (14 ounce) can low sodium beef broth |
1 (10 3/4 ounce) can cream of mushroom soup |
1 (1 1/4 ounce) envelope onion soup mix |
2 tablespoons flour |
Directions:
1. Heat a skillet on high and sear the meat on all sides until browned (this is critical, it DOES make a difference, the roast will be dry otherwise).
2. Put meat and all ingredients (except flour) into slow cooker/crock pot.
3. Cook on High for 5 hours, then turn to low until ready to serve.
4. About 30 minutes before serving remove meat and 1 cup liquid from cooker.
5. Stir flour into the 1 cup of liquid and return it to the slow cooker to thicken the gravy.
6. Trim excess fat off of roast and return to slow cooker until ready to serve.
