This is a great recipe for people who have to leave the house early every day for work. When you open the door at night, a delicious aroma awaits you!

Pretty good! I will probably use a smaller roast the next time since our family composes of 3 people!!! Very easy though and recomended

This recipe had a good flavor. However, I added a bayleaf the last half-hour of cooking to give it an even better taste.
-
I’ve been searching for a recipe that would keep the beef moist and tender. This is it! This recipe was so easy and quick to put together and the slow cooker did the rest!
-
This was the first time I have ever made a roast in the slow cooker, and it was oh-so-easy! And, it was very good! I used baby carrots and new potatoes (quartered)and it was ready to go in just a few minutes! My four year old daughter loved it!

I impressed my parents with this one. We all loved it – very moist and tender – not overcooked. It was good for leftovers as well.
I have a smaller, older crock pot, so I had to cut the roast (about 4 lbs.) into two chunks, then pile the veggies around it. After the first meal, I cut up more veggies and slow-cooked them in the leftover juice so that I would have plenty to go with the rest of the roast – excellent leftovers. Also, once you refrigerate, the next day you can skim off the congealed fat to reduce fat content. I liked the recipe as an easy and tasty way to get some nutritional veggies and fiber – carrots, onions and celery. -

The roast was very tender and tasty. But the potatoes had an odd flavor, it seemed like the potatoes took on the flavor of the carrots. I probably will try this again but I will leave out the carrots and see if the potatoes taste better.

This roast is awesome! It came out very tender and full of flavor.

My husband loved it. It was easy to prepare. It was delicious. Although, my 12 yr old loved, the picky 7 & 6 yr olds were not. This is a keeper!
-
I made this for dinner this past Sunday. It was extremely easy and the meat was melt in your mouth moist. I felt however that it lacked some flavour. I think next time I will add some worcestershire sauce to it. I will definitely make this again though, thanks.
-
My gravy didn’t thicken and the meat didn’t have much flavor.

This was simple to prepare and very good. My two teens LOVED it. The gravy is more “au jus” so it can be sopped up with bread. For leftovers, I shreaded the meat and it was even better. Instead of just using salt and pepper when I browned the meat, I used a season all type of seasoning and the flavor was full and rich. Definately a keeper.

Very tender and yummy.

Very good! I made it with Lipton’s “Beefy Onion” soup mix. It took the full 10 hours and the meat still wasn’t quite as tender as I like it, but I guess that varies by slow cookers.

This was a pretty good and easy pot roast recipe. We ended up having a later dinner than normal so it cooked 12 hours, but it wasn’t quite as tender as I wanted. Not tough at all, but not falling apart either. Might want to add a few more spices to kick it up a bit.

Very good very tender. I made a few changes as I had a larger group for dinner. I added 6 more potatoes, a bunch more carrots, 1/2 cup more water and another package of onion soup mix.

I have cooked a lot of roast in my day and this is the ONLY time it has come out perfect! I didn’t add any vegetables with it except for cutting an onion in half and setting it on top of the roast for the last 3 hours of cooking time. I made mashed potatoes and green beans separate, just don’t like my potatoes to taste like anything except potatoes. I also whisked 2 teaspoons of cornstarch with 1/2 cup water and added to the au jus that I transfered to a sausepan. I boiled the au jus mixture for about 5 minutes, whisking often, for a wonderful brown gravy. I was tempted to not cook it as long as the recipe calls for, but please just let it cook and keep check on the liquid level. Roast cooked this way just melts in your mouth! Thanks for sharing your talent!

Very easy to make, even for a beginner. Thank you for sharing this wonderful recipe!

Awesome! I cut the meat size in half. Sprinkle all sides of the meat with salt and pepper beforehand. I added more carrots than called for, and chopped the onions very fine. Be sure and add the celery because that’s what makes the sauce thick. Thanks for the recipe!
-
This was a delecious pot roast, my husband loved it. It was so easy to make to! The meat was so tender and juicy. Also the left overs were great too. I will be using this recipe again!!!

This pot roast was delicious and so tender. I cooked it for almost 11 hours since I was waiting for my brother in law and his fiancee to arrive for dinner. I wanted to make sure that it was hot and I figured that a little more heat could make it tenderize more. I used some Montreal Steak seasoning to season the roast before I browned it. Absolutely delicious. I will definitely make this again.

Great recipe. For a beefier flavor, I used a cup of canned beef broth, instead of the water, and a dash of Worcestershire sauce. This was a great dinner. I just threw it in the crockpot around 2, and since my roast was about half the size called for, it was done around 7. Thanks for the recipe : )

Very, very good–the only thing I did different is added a couple beef bouillon cubes and more water so that I could make lots of gravy. I even chopped up the left over roast put it back in the slow cooker and made a stew with it–it was great! Thank you Marie!

OMG! This was the best pot roast recipe ever. I cooked it about 9 hours and it just fell apart, didn’t even need a knife. I never made anything better. I used the beefy onion soup mix, beef boullion cube and a dash of worcestershire sauce.

Roast came out great. I quartered a head of cabbage and placed in the bottom of the crock pot. I also put the roast on top of the vegetables to let the juices mix in.

Good and easy. I didn’t have onion soup mix, so I used onion salt and some dry minced garlic. I also added beef cubes like suggested from other reviewers. I wasn’t able to fit the entire roast in whole, so I cubed it. It worked out great. I will probably continue to cube it. They were still very tender, and it was easy to serve right out of the crockpot! Thank You for the recipe.

Thank you, thank you, thank you! My husband has had a taste for pot roast so I ventured in to the slow cooker arena. The meat fell apart as I took it out, and the vegetables were perfect! I thickened the gravy a bit with cornstarch mixed with water and it was great. This will become a staple in our house.
-
My family absolutely loved this recipe. I added a bay leaf to the recipe for the last thirty minutes to add extra flavor. The meat was wonderfully tender and juicy. I suggested to my husband that I may add some garlic cloves next time, but he told me not to do anything that may mess up the recipe…he loved it that much. This will become a staple in our household.

Thanks, Marie. This is a keeper! Added 2 additional cups of water, a bay leaf and 1 beef bouillon cube. Ladled out the liquid at the end, reduced a bit and thickened with a little flour mixed with water. Makes a delicious gravy!

Yum! I skip the celery, and use a bottle of beer instead of the water. Then, when we are ready to eat I make gravy using a cup of the juices from the cockpot. My husband loves it.

I grew up having the advantage of one of the world’s greatest cooks, my aunt. And then, after I was married, My mother in law turned out to be almost as good. She made a fantastic pot roast…Up till now I have not found one as good. This one is as good as the ones she used to make for Sunday dinner. We had company this weekend and didn’t want to spend a lot of time cooking but wanted something really good. We visited with our company while dinner cooked all unattended. Everyone enjoyed one of the greates pot roasts they had had in some time. Thanks Maria

Very, very good. I used beef broth instead of water, and put in more vegetables than what the recipe called for. I cooked a 2.75lb chuck roast for about 9 hours, and it was falling apart when I took it out of the slow cooker. Very filling, and comforting. Great recipe!
-
I’m sorry to say this was disappointing. I followed the recipe except that I used beef broth instead of water. The gravy it made was thin and flavorless and the pot roast itself lacked oomph. Sorry, but I won’t be making this one again.

The meat was very tender and delicious, but the gravy lacked something. I thickened it with cornstarch as suggested by other reviewers, but I thought the flavor wasn’t full enough. It just tasted like onion soup. I will definitely be making this again, but next time I will add spices to see if I can improve the sauce. Overall a good recipe.

I did not think this tasted very good- it had a weird flavor, probably from the onion soup mix. also, all the vegetables just tasted exactly the same as the meat, which was overkill. I had a 3.5 pound roast and I cooked it on low for 10 hours, it came out way over done. I will not make this again.

I used Knorr’s pot roast flavoring instead of onion soup mix and cooked the living **** out of it (>10 hours). Had so much I invited friends over, and they left nothing for me!

This was a good recipe, but I took the advice of others and made some changes. I added 1 can of beef broth in addition to the water. It gave me just the right amount of juices for gravy. I added 1 tsp of minced garlic and doubled the amount of carrots and celery. My roast was 3.5 pounds and I cooked it on low for 8 hours. I will make this again.

I just purchased a crock pot and this was the first recipe I tried. The roast was absolutely fantastic, and it was so great coming home after work and having the house smell divine. I added more veggies than was called for including some red and yellow peppers, and several of the small red potatoes which were delicious. This recipe is a real “keeper”…so thanks, Marie, for what I know will be a family favorite.

I didn’t particularly care for this one. Maybe it had something to do with the cut of meat I used, really grisly and tough. But I wasn’t crazy about the taste either. Won’t make again.

This was a great recipe. So easy and I love the fact that you can have a roast dinner any night of the week! I added a bit of Bisto in the end to add flavour and thicken the gravy. While it was wonderful as is, I will try a few changes next time. Perhaps I’ll add garlic and omit the celery. I also love the taste of rosemary on beef, so I may add some of that also.

My 3lb roast came out so tender and tasty! I slow cooked it yesterday, then put everything in the fridge overnight. The fat hardened on top and was easily lifted off. We picked out what we wanted and nuked our plates. A quick meal for tonight! I don’t like it when recipes say salt and pepper to taste because it leaves a lot of room for error. We had to add a little salt at the table (which is better than having the whole dish ruined by being too salty!).

This is fabulous, great flavor, super easy, couldn’t ask for more! I did not add potatoes to the mix for fear they’d end up getting too soft and falling apart, so I just added the other veggies. I made mashed potatoes when I got home, and thickened up the broth with corn starch to make more of a gravy. Perfect winter comfort food meal. Thanks!

This was one of the best meals I’ve ever made! I used a 2.5 pound roast, and one whole can of beef broth in lieu of water. Cooked in the crock for ~ 6 hours on high–it was delish! Onions just melt in your mouth. Thanks Marie!

Great! I used beef broth on the advise of other reviewers and cooked potatoes seperately. It was tender and yummy, I used a 2.75 lb. roast and it was plenty for us. I strained out the veggies when it was all done and thickened the broth/juices on the stove with corn starch and a little Gravy Master to make the gravy . Thanks!!!

Just great! On the advice of another reviewer, I cooked it overnight and glad I did. In the morning I only had to transfer the roast to a covered plate and separated the gravy. We ate it that night and all the flavors had a chance to magnify. I omitted the celery (and of course added whole garlic cloves)and kept in the potatoes, they turned out just fine.
Thanks Marie.

This was so delish. I love how the veggies tasted and the meat was super tender. I will make this again, especially on the days when I don’t have time to fuss for dinner! Great job Marie!

Awesome recipe! The only thing I did different was use a whole can of beef broth instead of water as suggested by another person and it came out great. Will definitely make this again.

I took everywhere’s suggestion and used a can of low-sodium beef broth in place of the water, and added some minced garlic. I also left out the celery and replaced the onion with dehydrated onion. The roast itself was so tender it fell apart, and everything had a wonderful flavor. Was the first roast I’d ever made, and it was a hit with the entire family. Not enough potatoes and carrots for my family, so next time will make more, but I definitely will be making this again. Oh, to thicken the sauce, I made a slurry of flour and water and added it the last half hour of cooking.

Great recipe! Thanks for sharing. We added some more spices–but other than that great pot roast!

The potroast was really good! I added some mushrooms and left out the potatoes. It could have had a little more flavor. Next time I will add more salt to the meat.
UPDATE: I just made this again with adjustments and its great. I added sliced jalapenos, extra salt, mushrooms, and a teaspoon of crushed red peppers. MUCH BETTER this time!

yummy pot roast!! left out the celery and added slived mushrooms. i used beef broth as was recommended by several others and i added a little red pepper and garlic powder halfway through. the pepper gave it a nice kick (i also added a splash of Dale’s).i also added a little flour for the last hour of cooking to thicken the gravy. my husband will be enjoying the leftovers for lunch! thanks for the great recipe!

We made this only we added garlic and seasonings and worcestershire sauce to the meat first. It’s delicious!

I thought this recipe was good. I overcooked the roast a little – so it was more like beef stew – but it was just as tender and good. I meant to include a can of beef broth as some others suggested, but forgot. The next time I make it I will, as I think it will give it even more flavor. But it was still really good even without it. Definate keeper!

Decent, in fact very good, but somewhat on the basic side . I cooked the meat for 8 hours and that might have been too long. I do not like overcooked meat, though based on other reviews, I expected the meat to be more on the tender side if the meat was more done than some appreciate. The meat wasn’t tough but certainly didn’t “fall apart” as others reported. The veggies were awesome and I did add corn starch to some of the juice and it made a very good gravy. Leftovers are excellent.

I used a 2 pound roast and it was so tender that it fell apart. I left out the celery and used more onions than called for. I couldn’t taste much difference than other recipes of roast beef so I only gave it three stars. The finished product was pretty good though….
-
This was awesome. I followed the recipe exactly and it came out with great flavor and very tender.

Pretty good. A little strong on the onions. Next time I might leave the fresh onion out. I used low sodium beef broth instead of water and added a little garlic powder to the roast before browning. I will make this again but play with it a little.

This recipe was very simple and didn’t require a lot of prep. time, but turned out fantastic. The meat was extremely tender and my guests raved about it all day.

Yum! My husband and I loved this recipe!!! I only used 2.5lbs of meat and added lots of carrots and potatoes. I also followed other people’s suggestions and used 1 can of beef broth instead of water. The house smelled so good all day! The beef just fell apart and was really good with some of the juice added as gravy. So good!

Now this is GREAT pot roast from a slow cooker. I used low sodium beef broth in place of the water. I sprinkled onion and garlic powders along with black pepper on the roast. After browning and moving roast from pan to slow cooker, I deglazed the pan with the can of beef broth and then poured the mixture over the meat. I added shitake mushrooms and I bay leaf. I did omit the potatoes as hubby wanted the beef served over egg noodles. Due to my work schedule the roast ended up cooking for 10 hours, I was worried that it may have been over done. When we got home, the house smelled so good and the roast was perfect, very tender. This is REALLY REALLY good! Thank you Marie!

This is a staple in my house…we LOVE it! I use garlic salt and pepper, and Lipton Beefy Onion soup mix. I also use baby carrots and sweet potatoes instead of regular potatoes. I add a can of beef broth to ensure there is enough liquid to cover the meat. Cooks on LOW for 10-12 hrs, and is just perfect! I make “pot roast burritos” with the leftovers…hubby loves those! 🙂 An EASY, no-hassle, tasty pot roast!!! *note – close all of your bedroom doors when you turn on the crock or else your rooms will smell like pot roast for days…)

Excellent!! Moist, tender, flavorful, and juicy, but best of all, EASY! I used a bottom round roast instead of a chuck roast and it was delicious. Next time I will take others’ suggestions and use beef broth and worcestershire sauce while cooking to maximize the flavor. My husband and I loved it–will definitely make regularly.

Very good roast! I put more potatoes, and carrots, and also added beef broth in with the water, for added liquid! I also put in some garlic salt! I had to cook it quicker; so I did the first 5 hours on low, then 1 1/2 hours on high, just to speed things up! It was still delicious, and fell apart! Thanks for the great recipe!
