Halfway fill with water, a 3 qt. stainless steel saucepan. 2. Into the pan of water, slice potatoes about 1/4 inch thick. 3. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, watching carefully to prevent boil-over and stirring from bottom occasionally to prevent sticking. 4. Immediately reduce heat to medium-low and simmer for approximately 7 to 10 minutes, until potatoes break apart easily with spoon. 5. Shut off heat, drain potatoes and return to pan. 6. Add salt and half of the butter. 7. Using a potato masher, mash the potatoes down into the pan to make the pieces smaller. You may use a hand mixer, instead, if you are very careful to use low speed to avoid flying potato chunks! 8. Switch to hand mixer, add the rest of the butter and beat well at medium speed until it starts to become smoother. 9. While continuing to beat, slowly begin adding milk until desired consistency. 10. Continue to beat until all lumps are gone. 11. Taste for seasoning and add more salt if needed (it usually does.) Not recommended, but if desired, add pepper. Keep warm until serving. A pat of butter on top is a nice finishing touch. 12. Cover and refrigerate leftovers. Leftovers, also, may be packaged and frozen. When needed, thaw in the refrigerator and reheat in the microwave.

SLOW COOKER PERFECT POT ROAST RECIPE (AND HOMEMADE GRAVY)

Steps:

• Place a large skillet on stove top and heat over medium high heat (perferably a non-stick skillet).
• Add 2 Tablespoons of olive oil.
• Generously sprinkle salt, pepper, and garlic salt on all sides of the pot roast.
• Place roast in hot oil on a skillet and let it sear on that side for 2 minutes. Flip the roast over and sear the other side for 2 minutes.
• Depending on the shape of your pot roast, you can sear the other sides if you choose.
• Spray the slow cooker with non-stick cooking spray and place your seared pot roast in the slow cooker.
• Add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil to the hot skillet. Add onion, carrots, and celery to the skillet and season with more salt and pepper, if desired. Using a spatula, scrape the "brown bits" (aka the burnt bits) off the bottom of the skillet as you cook the vegetables (these bits add so much flavor!).
• Cook for about 3 minutes or until the vegetables start to soften.
• Add garlic to the skillet and cook for 1 minute more.
• Add the vegetables to the slow cooker, spreading the vegetables all around the roast.
• Pour in the beef broth, being sure not to pour it directly on the roast or vegetables because you just cooked them in delicious flavors. Try to pour the beef broth on the sides as much as possible.
• Pour the Worcestershire sauce, balsamic vinegar, and soy sauce directly on the roast. Sprinkle thyme and rosemary evenly around the meat and vegetables.
• Place the lid on top of the slow cooker and set timer for 8-10 hours on low heat (it will vary based on your slow cooker - mine is done in 8 hours, but some will take longer) or 4-5 hours on high heat (I highly recommend cooking this roast on low - I have never had it turn out as well when I have cooked it on high. Also, you want your house to smell good alllllll day long).
• Remove roast from slow cooker and slice into pieces (it should pretty much fall apart by this point).
• Serve with mashed potatoes and the cooked carrots on the side.
