What types of seasonings do you use when making a pot roast? I have used beer before! Can you believe that? A long time ago and a lady I had met while my husband was deployed to Iraq told me about her slow cooker beef roast recipe that called for one can of beer. I thought she was crazy but after giving the beef a taste I quickly realized that this woman wa son to something. The meat turned out super tender and flavorful. Yummo!
Check out what my pals over at Group Recipes had to say about this awesome recipe:
Delicious slow-cooked beef roast, use any cut of beef- sure to be delicious! Dinner in one pot is always appreciated, and ready when I get home is even better. I love this recipe; you will too! Recipe adapted slightly from Lipton.
My mother is the one who taught me to use Lipton onion soup mix in my pot roast and boy oh boy, was she ever on to something! Just this simple addition of seasonings really brings out the flavor in the roast and it makes the meat insanely tender.
Ingredients
2-3 lb beef roast of your choice
Bertolli olive oil
1 lb carrots, baby or regular
4 red, or I like Yukon gold potatoes
1 small yellow onion, quartered
5 cloves garlic, crushed
1 package Lipton Onion Soup Mix
2 tsp beef base
3 cups hot water
Instructions
Brown roast in a pan with a little bit of oil over medium-high heat, until all sides “sealed” and brown
Layer half of the carrots, garlic and all of the onion on the bottom of crock pot
Top with browned roast
Arrange the rest of the carrots, garlic and potatoes on top of roast
Mix beef base and soup mix in the hot water, pour over roast and veggies
Cover crock pot tightly, set on high
Cook for six to eight hours, meat will be very tender, falling apart and veggies cooked through
Enjoy!
*Depending on your how quickly your crock pot cooks things, you may want to adjust cooking time and/or heat. This is how long my sloow cooker takes : )
