Time 6h15m

Number Of Ingredients 8

3 lb pot roast
1 1-oz pkg onion soup mix
1 12-oz beer
potatoes, chunks
carrots, chunks
celery, chunks
onion, chunks
whole mushrooms, optional

Steps:

  • 4. Pour beer over roast.
  • 5. Cook on low for 6 to 8 hours.

Tips:

  • Choose the right cut of beef. Chuck roast, rump roast, and top blade roast are all good choices for pot roast. These cuts are tough, but they become tender when cooked slowly in a liquid.
  • Brown the beef before cooking. Browning the beef adds flavor and helps to keep it moist. You can brown the beef in a skillet over medium heat or in the crock pot on the "sear" setting.
  • Add plenty of vegetables. Vegetables add flavor and nutrition to pot roast. Good choices include carrots, potatoes, onions, celery, and parsnips.
  • Use a flavorful liquid. Beef broth, chicken broth, or red wine are all good choices for the cooking liquid. You can also add herbs, spices, and seasonings to taste.
  • Cook the pot roast on low for 8-10 hours. This will allow the beef to become tender and fall apart.
  • Serve the pot roast with mashed potatoes, rice, or noodles. You can also serve it with a side of vegetables.

Conclusion:

Pot roast is a classic comfort food that is easy to make in a crock pot. By following these tips, you can make a delicious and tender pot roast that your family will love.
