3 Season Crock Pot Roast Recipes

THE PERFECT CROCK POT ROAST

Steps:

• Spray your crock pot with cooking spray
• Place your roast in your 6- quart crock pot (I used my Hamilton Beach Programmable Insulated Slow Cooker.)
• Surround your roast with your potato wedges, onion halves and carrots
• Mix together one of your brown gravy mixes with 1 c cold water
• Pour over your roast and veggies
• Cover and cook on low for 8-10 hours (total)
• An hour before serving, mix together your remaining brown gravy mix and 1 c cold water
• Pour over roast and veggies
• Cover again for the last hour of cooking.

CROCK POT ROAST

Steps:

• Pat roast completely dry. Combine seasoning ingredients and massage it onto all sides of the roast, followed by the flour.
• Heat olive oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Once the oil is shiny and heated, add the roast and sear on each side for 2-3 minutes, until a brown crust has developed. Decrease heat slightly if needed during cooking. Remove from heat and set aside.
• Whisk together the gravy ingredients and add some of it to the skillet that you used to sear the roast. Use a silicone spatula to "clean" the bottom and sides of the skillet, this will give the gravy more flavor. Transfer it to the slow cooker along with the remaining gravy, followed by the pot roast and any juices from the plate.
• Cut the potatoes in half or thirds of equal size. (If 1-2 inch potatoes, you can leave them whole.)
• Peel the carrots and slice them into halves or thirds. Very thick carrots can also be sliced in half lengthwise.
• Arrange the potatoes around the roast and top with carrots. Place the lid securely on top and resist the temptation to open it during cooking as you'll lose a lot of heat.
• Cook on high for 5-6 hours or on low for 8-10 hours.
• Carefully remove the carrots, potatoes, and the roast and set on a serving platter. Tent with foil.

EASY 3-ENVELOPE CROCK POT ROAST

Steps:

• - Mix dry mixes thoroughly into water.
• - Place beef in Crock Pot.
• - Cover with gravy and place on lid.
• - Cook on LOW for 6-8 hours until meat is easily pierced by fork.
• - OPTIONAL: Add vegetables after first 3 hours of cooking to avoid them becoming too soft.
• ENJOY!
• NOTE: Because recipes need exacting amounts it was hard to list the envelope quantities. For clarity, my Italian Dressing envelope was 0.7 (19g) ounce size, My Ranch was 1 ounce (28g) size and my Beef Gravy mix was 0.87 (24g) size. These sizes worked perfectly for flavor and were not over-salty.

THREE PACKET SLOW COOKER ROAST

Steps:

• Whisk together the water, Italian dressing mix, ranch dressing mix, and brown gravy mix together in a bowl until smooth. Place the beef roast into a slow cooker, and pour the sauce over top.
• Cook on Low until the roast is easily pierced by a fork, 6 to 8 hours.

SLOW-COOKER POT ROAST

Steps:

• In slow cooker, stir together cornstarch and 2 tablespoons cold water until smooth. Add carrots and onions; season with salt and pepper, and toss.
• Sprinkle roast with 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper; place on top of vegetables, and drizzle with Worcestershire. Cover; cook on high, 6 hours (or on low, 10 hours).
• Transfer roast to a cutting board; thinly slice against the grain. Place vegetables in a serving dish; pour pan juices through a fine-mesh sieve, if desired. Serve roast with vegetables and pan juices.

3 SEASON CROCK POT ROAST

• For a crisper veggie taste, after roast has cooked on the low setting for 5 hours, remove the roast, add vegetables to the bottom of the crock pot, place roast on top of vegetables and cook an additional 2 hours on high.
• Remember, you can always thicken the gravy on the stove top after cooking is complete.
