Pot Roast in the Slow Cooker
This is one of those recipes that makes the house smell absolutely divine while it cooks. You just toss everything in, set it, and forget it. Before you know it, you’ll have a tender, juicy pot roast that’s simply irresistible.
Here’s what you’ll need:
Ingredients:
- 1 (3-4 lbs) chuck roast
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 medium onion, sliced
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 4 carrots, sliced
- 4 potatoes, cubed
- 1 cup beef broth
- 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1 teaspoon dried rosemary
Instructions:
- First things first, season that chuck roast with salt and pepper. You want it to be flavorful!
- In a pan, heat up the olive oil over medium-high heat. Once hot, sear the roast on both sides until it’s nice and browned. This step is crucial for sealing in all those juicy flavors!
- Next, add the sliced onions and minced garlic to the slow cooker. Lay the seared roast right on top of them.
- Now it’s time to add in the veggies. Toss in the carrots and potatoes around the roast.
- In a small bowl, mix together the beef broth, Worcestershire sauce, thyme, and rosemary. Pour this mixture over the roast and veggies.
- Cover and cook on low for 8 hours, or on high for about 4 hours. Your patience will pay off when that roast is fork-tender!
- Once done, let it rest for a few minutes before slicing. Serve it up with those veggies and spoon some of that delicious gravy over everything.
And there you have it—your delightful slow cooker pot roast that will make for a hearty meal any day of the week. Enjoy every bite, and don’t forget to share with family and friends. Happy cooking!
