A fail-proof slow cooker recipe for crock pot roast beef (chuck roast) with potatoes, carrots and the best gravy ever!
Pot Roast is another one of my favorite comfort food meals. Just the smell of it!!! how is lingers through the house while it cooks, it really is simply the best. We stumbled upon a great sale on Chuck Roasts, so we bought four of them.
How can you resist at $5-$6 each ($1.99 price per pound) what a steal of a deal. I make so many meals with a chuck roast, Shredded Beef Taco’s, No Peek Beef Tip’s, and this No Fail Pot Roast recipe.
This is kind of my fix it and forget it meal. Just toss all the ingredients in the crock pot and forget it. Well except for the veggies I add those the last hour of the cooking process so i don't have mushy veggies.
What I love most about this recipe is that by the time it is all finished and done with it makes it's own gravy. The meat is top notch tender and just falls apart. This is a perfect Sunday meal or if you have guests coming in town.
I like to serve mine with white rice my daughters favorite and hot yeast rolls. I always try to make a special dessert for after the meal it just wouldn't be complete without dessert everyone knows that.
If you don't have time to make a dessert fresh fruit or a fruit salad would be just as nice. The complete recipe is at the end of the post. I don't use any particular brand as you can tell by the picture i use generic onion soup mix and mushroom soup.
Perfect every time!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I call this my no fail pot roast

Southern Place is one of my absolute favorite sites i stop everyday to check out Christys recipes. I have prepared a lot of them myself and i am never disappointed. I told Chirsty i was the Southern Plate Stalker Ü
HiHoohio That does sound good. Thanks for the suggestion i will give that one a try, it will be a nice change.
You might think this is a terrible way for the drippings because a lot of people use it for gravy which is nice but I love my doggy too and give her a nice taste treat at times.
After the roast is out and I have just drippings in the removable stoneware, I add one cup of water, and three cups of Gravy Train and leave it on the WARM setting for a little bit. I then seperate what is in the crock pot into three portions. Instant treat for my dog!
