Make The Best Crockpot Pot Roast







A pot roast with vegetables makes a hearty meal.


Crock-Pot meals are easy on the budget and easy on the cook. All-day cooking tenderizes meat, allowing you to enjoy less expensive cuts. And because the ingredients have hours to mingle, your creations will please your palate and those of your guests. Pot roast is a perfect cold-weather meal and Crock-Pot cooking leaves you free to engage in other activities.

1. Wash the vegetables. Using the knife and cutting board slice the carrots into thick rounds. Scrub the potatoes, but leave them unpeeled. Cut the cabbage into six or eight wedges. Cut the onions in half then make slices. Place the onion slices on the bottom of the Crock-Pot.


2. Rinse the roast under cool water. Pat it dry with paper towels and place it on top of the onion slices in the Crock-Pot. Sprinkle the soup mix over the roast.


3. Arrange the remaining vegetables around the roast and sprinkle them with salt and pepper. Measure 1/2 cup of wine or broth and pour it into the pot.


4. Cover the Crock-Pot and cook on low for six to eight hours. Transfer the roast to a platter and arrange the vegetables around the roast. Serve with the broth.
