Slow Cooker Old Fashioned Pot Roast

Long before we had slow cookers, my Mother would make a Sunday Roast. She would have it in the oven before we went to church and when we came home it would be ready to eat. I began using that same recipe when the slow cooker's became popular, and am still making it today. This is an old fashioned recipe fitted for a modern appliance, and one that continues to be one of our favorites!

How To Make Slow Cooker 

Old Fashioned Pot Roast

Dust the roast with flour, salt and pepper,

 then sear in a very hot skillet.

Place the seared roast into the slow cooker.

Place all the vegetables around and on top of the roast.

Add the beef broth and the seasons.

Place the lid on the slow cooker and 

cook on low for 6 to 8 hours or on high for 4 to 5 hours.

Carefully remove all the vegetables and roast to a serving platter

leaving the Au Jus in the slow cooker.

The Au Jus can  be served on the side or 

can be used to make a gravy to serve on the side.

This gravy is delicious with just a 

few seasons and thicken added to the Au Jus.

This Slow Cooker Old Fashioned Pot Roast Is Ready To Serve!

Any left over for us means a great roast beef hash the next day!

And sometimes sliced 

roast beef sandwiches served on toast with a drizzle of

 that delicious gravy on top. 

Sometimes it just gets better everyday!
