Slow Cooker Beef Pot Roast Recipes

The real secret here is making sure you sear the meat before the long, slow braising.

Prep: 20m | Cook: 6h 30m | Ready In: 6h 50m

Ingredients:

• 1 (5 pound) bone-in beef pot roast
• salt and pepper to taste
• 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour, or as needed
• 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
• 8 ounces sliced mushrooms
• 1 medium onion, chopped
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 tablespoon butter
• 1 1/2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
• 1 tablespoon tomato paste
• 2 1/2 cups chicken broth
• 3 medium carrots, cut into chunks
• 2 stalks celery, cut into chunks
• 1 sprig fresh rosemary
• 2 sprigs fresh thyme

Cooking Process:

• Generously season both sides of roast with salt and pepper. Sprinkle flour over the top until well coated, and pat it into the meat. Shake off any excess.
• Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until hot. Sear the roast on both sides for 5-6 minutes each, until well browned. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
• Reduce the heat to medium and stir in mushrooms and butter; cook for 3-4 minutes.
• Stir in onion; cook for 5 minutes, until onions are translucent and begin to brown. Add garlic, stir for about a minute.
• Stir in 1 1/2 tablespoons flour; cook and stir for about 1 minute. Add tomato paste, and cook for another minute.
• Slowly add chicken stock, stir to combine, and return to a simmer. Remove skillet from the heat.
• Place carrots and celery in the slow cooker. Place roast over the vegetables and pour in any accumulated juices. Add rosemary and thyme.
• Pour onion and mushroom mixture over the top of the roast. Cover slow cooker, turn to high and cook the roast for 5-6 hours, until the meat is fork tender.
• Skim off any fat from the surface and remove the bones. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

Serving Suggestion:

Serve with mashed potatoes.

Cook’s Note:

• Easy Cleanup.
• Try using a liner in your slow cooker for easier cleanup.
