Southern Style Pot Roast (Crock Pot/Slow Cooker) (1 Viewer)

[Kelly]

Heat oil in a large Dutch oven. Brown Roast on all sides at med-med/high heat....3-4 min each side. I cut mine into large chunks to fit in the Crock Pot better.
Arrange vegetables in the bottom of the Crock Pot. Cover with Roast. Mix Soup packets, Tony C's and water and pour over meat and vegetables.
Cook on high for 4-5 hrs or on low 10-11 hrs. I prefer slower with low heat.....the meat is more tender. Of course, it depends on your Crock Pot and desired degree of doneness.
Remove roast and vegetables. Add flour to gravy. Amount depends on your preferred thickness. Wisk until smooth. Start with 1 tblsp and add from there. Add more water if you need to.
Voila!
(This is from memory.....so I hope I didn't forget anything!)

Okay, another question, isn't a dutch oven like an over the coals crockpot?

 

[Kelly]

Yeah.....it's just used to brown the roast on the stove top. Just another pot to dirty. You could cook the whole recipe in it, but I don't like to. It's too much 'pot watching' to keep everything from scorching even on a simmer. You'd have to stir it often.

So just a heavy cast pan will work too?

 

[Kelly]

Yes ma'am.

 

[Jenn]

Yes ma'am.

I did not find Tony C's but I found cajun seasoning and it came out wonderful!

Except I didn't do the gravy. I have bad luck with gravy.

You can do gravy with a little corn starch instead of flour if you have a problem with lumps...
