Seriously Delicious Pot Roast...seriously!!!!! image

This is oober easy and comes out delicious every single time! I love my crockpot and this is one of the recipes/reasons why. The idea here is very tender meat, chunks of mushrooms all served over egg noodles. A salad would add color and round out the meal.

Time 6h15m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

Ingredients

3/4 cup flour
2 tablespoons McCormick grill seasoning
2 tablespoons olive oil
3 lbs boneless chuck roast
1 (1 ounce) packet Lipton Onion Soup Mix
8 ounces button mushrooms, cut in 1/2
1/2 red onion, chopped
1/4 cup chicken broth or 1/4 cup water

Steps:

Heat a large skillet on medium high.
Combine flour and grill seasoning in a large bowl.
Coat Chuck Roast with flour mixture, shake off any excess.
Place Chuck Roast in skillet and sear/brown all 4 sides, 3 minutes each side.
While meat is searing: Mix Lipton Onion soup mix, mushrooms, onion and chicken broth (or water) in the crockpot. This will become the gravy of the dish. It does not look like much now, but the water from the mushrooms and cooking process WILL make a nice gravy!
When Chuck Roast is seared/browned on all sides add to crockpot and coat with the mushroom mixture.
Set crockpot to low for 6 hours. I would not recommend doing this on high for half the time. It does not come out as tender.

1 tablespoon vegetable oil
3 ½ pounds beef chuck pot roast
2 teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 cup diced carrots
1 cup diced celery
1 cup diced onion
¼ cup butter
1 teaspoon dried rosemary

Add butter, and cook until the onions are translucent, about 5 minutes. Then sprinkle in rosemary, stir the vegetables, and return the roast to the pot. Cover the pot with a lid.
Roast in the preheated oven until the chuck roast is tender, about 2 1/2 to 3 hours. Season vegetables with additional salt and black pepper, if desired.
