The Easiest Fall-Apart Pot Roast (Slow Cooker)
Super tender, juicy, fall-apart pot roast is not as hard as you think! This slow cooker recipe uses a few simple ingredients (one of them is patience...) to make the most flavorful (yet stupid easy) pot roast ever! Carrots add the perfect touch!
Ingredients
For the roast
3 to 4 pound chuck roast*
copious amounts of salt and pepper (copious I say!)
1 tablespoon oil, optional (for browning)
1 and 1/2 cups water
1 and 1/2 teaspoons Better Than Bouillon Beef Base**
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
1 bay leaf
2 (1-ounce) packets of onion soup mix
2 pounds carrots, peeled and chopped into chunks
For the gravy
2-3 cups of drippings from the meat
1-2 cups COLD water
1/3 to 1/2 cup flour
2 teaspoons Better Than Bouillon Beef Base
2 tablespoons butter, optional
salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
1.First you are going to have to make a choice about whether you want a really good roast, or a really REALLY good roast. Browning the meat before slow cooking makes it extra special. To do that:
2.Heat a wide skillet over medium high heat.
