There's nothing quite like sitting down to a hearty, slow cooked dinner at day's end. And, it's even better when that dinner is pot roast with all the trimmings. This recipe has proven to produce thee best pot roast I've ever made. Every component is pure perfection. The meat is juicy and fall-apart tender. The vegetables are cooked just right and are full of flavor. The seasonings are simply spot on and the broth yields a fabulous gravy-like sauce that is divine when poured over everything prior to serving. We usually have leftovers of this, so we often make hash the following day. The leftover roast is, also, fabulous utilized in a hot roast beef sandwich for lunch. Yields 4 - 6 servings. Ingredients: SEASONING MIX - 2 tablespoons steak seasoning (mine is store-bought and has a blend of peppercorns, garlic, paprika, parsley and salt) 1 tablespoon kosher salt 1 tablespoon dried thyme* 1/2 tablespoon dried rosemary* *NOTE REGARDING HERBS (updated October 2022): I’ve prepared this recipe numerous times throughout the years since publication. I am adding a substitution suggestion in place of the thyme and rosemary as I’ve come to prefer 1 1/2 tablespoons of Herbs de Provence in their place. It is easily obtainable at most supermarkets. REMAINING INGREDIENTS - 1 chuck roast (mine was 3 pounds) Olive oil 1 pound carrots, peeled and cut into large chunks 2 pounds potatoes, peeled and cut into large chunks 1 onion, peeled and cut into large chunks 2 stalks celery, cut into large chunks (optional) 1 cup beef broth 1 tablespoon corn starch Directions: Combine together seasoning mix in a small bowl. Set aside. Coat both sides of meat with olive oil. Sprinkle on a third of the seasoning mix onto each side. Sear both sides of the meat in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Transfer roast to slow cooker. Place the vegetables in a large bowl. Drizzle on a little olive oil to coat vegetables. Sprinkle on the remaining seasoning mix. Add the vegetables to the same skillet that was used to sear the meat. Sauté for about five minutes - stirring occasionally. Transfer the vegetables to the top of the roast in the slow cooker. Pour in the beef broth. Cover with lid. Cook on low for 9 hours or on high for 6 hours. Using a turkey baster, retrieve most of the cooking juices from the slow cooker. Transfer juices to a small sauce pan and bring to a simmer over medium heat on the stovetop. Whisk together the cornstarch with a little water. Blend into the pan juices while whisking. Bring back to a simmer until thickened. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed. Transfer the roast and vegetables to a large platter. Ladle the gravy over. Serve immediately. ANGELA'S TIME-SAVING TIP: I usually prep my veggies the evening before so that I don't have to take the time to do this task in the morning. Simply store the peeled, cut carrots in a container or plastic baggie in the fridge. (Do the same for the onions and celery.) And, store the peeled and cut potatoes in the fridge - submerged in cold water in a large container. (Just drain off the water in the morning.) Also, the seasoning mix can be made the night before to save some time in the morning. And, for an extra boost of flavor and to save a little more time come morning, the beef can be seasoned the night before and stored in a large plastic baggie in the fridge.

A set and forget meal that will knock your socks off! Can be made in a traditional slow cooker or thermal cooker.
A while back, I was on Studio 5 whipping up a classic, traditional, family-style recipe. I felt like it was really fun because I was able to share a recipe that took zero effort or even a glance at a recipe to make. I think those are the best recipes! They're ones we've tried, tested a million times, and prepare for our families on a monthly, and sometimes weekly, basis. Along with those stuffed shells (thank you for all the emails and messages about how successful it was in your kitchens! It completely has made my life!!!), this pot roast dish is something I remember eating so many times throughout my childhood. My Mom would place the mighty roast in her large black roasting pan (the piece of roast was definitely much larger than the ones I buy - but she had many more mouths to feed), seasoned it up with salt and plenty of pepper, and I remember the strong smell of the infused-vinegars she's drizzle all over the meat. A few hours later, after church, we'd come home to the incredible aroma of pot roast and baked potatoes. It smelled like Sunday afternoon, to me, and I LOVED it when we were able to gather around the family table at dinnertime and talk together while we filled our bellies with what she had cooked for us. My recipe is different, but the concept of the Classic Slow Cooked Beef Roast is still alive and vibrant throughout this dish. I've made it a million times since Ryan and I got married almost 8 years ago, and this is still my favorite way to prepare it. I know slow cooker recipes are usually pretty straight forward, but this one requires a couple of extra steps - don't worry, I have the photos for the steps to help you along the way. Let's jump in! First, we must prepare the meat by searing it. I had made my beef roast for years without doing this simple extra step, and when I started doing it, it made LOADS of difference in the overall taste and texture of the meat. I rub the surface of the entire roast with the steak seasoning. I have a special seasoning that I love using, because it's a tenderizer, and well as adds incredible flavor (not an ad, I just love this stuff!). It's called "Spade L Ranch" Beef Marinade and Seasoning. It's killer, and adds some really incredible flavors. After I rub the meat surface, I sear every side of the meat in a little oil - this adds more depth of flavor to the meat (like when you BBQ a hamburger on a grill vs. roasting it in the oven - the crispy char is really tasty). Watch out for little flecks of oil - it tends to splash out of the pan if the heat gets too hot, too quickly. I love using all these fresh earthy veggies - they are always on the less expensive side (which makes me feel better for splurging a bit more on a large piece of meat sometimes). Wash & chop them all up, and keep in mind that we want to cook them all evenly. So make the pieces as equal in size as possible. The bottom layer of the slow cooker is the onions. I love the onions adding a ton of flavor through the bottom of the roast during it's slow journey in the slow cooker. I place the seared beef roast on top. Next comes the carrots. I just place them around the onions and roast, simple as that. I know there's a fleet of people against "mix seasoning packets", but there's one I've used for a long time, and the flavors have never let me down. (Again, not an ad), it's the McCormick "Pot Roast" seasoning packet. I mix it up with beef stock, or even water, and pour it right over the carrots, onions, and most importantly, the beef roast. Between 5-8 hours later (depending on if you put your cooker on low or high heat), you have this amazing, savory, soaked-in-flavor beef roast. It will blow your minds, people. The meat is incredibly soft and tender, and shreds almost immediately when you touch it with a fork. The veggies aren't mushy, or all the same flavor, after cooking together for so long. They each compliment each other with the sweet carrots, the hearty potatoes, and the soft onions. It's something I love looking forward to after a long day at church on Sunday, and smells just like my childhood! Enjoy! Slow Cooker Classic Beef Roast makes 4 servings ingredients: large beef roast, thawed (rump or chuck is fine) 2 T steak seasoning 2 T olive oil 1 package McCormick pot roast mix (don't judge, it's good stuff) 2 C beef stock (or water) 1 medium yellow onion, roughly chopped 6 medium carrots, peeled, ends removed, and sliced into 1/2-inch coins 6 medium russet potatoes, washed & sliced into 1/2-inch coins method: 1. In a larger saucepan over medium heat, slowly heat up olive oil. With your clean hands, rub the steak seasoning all over the surface of the beef roast, gently massaging them into the grains of the meat until all the seasoning is covering the roast. Wash hands, then place roast in the pan with giant tongs (watch out for splattering oil). Sear all sides of the roast until the outside of the roast is toasted on all sides. Set aside. 2. In the bottom of the slow cooker, place the chopped onions, and then the roast on top of the onions. Toss in the carrots. 3. Whisk the pot roast mix with the beef stock or water, then pour over the roast and carrots. Top with the chopped potatoes, Top with the lid, and cook on low for 8 hours, or high for 5 hours. When finished, shred with a fork, and serve with the thick juices from the bottom of the slow cooker. Recipe source: Baking with Blondie
