Slow Cooker Pot Roast

Chuck Roast is in the Old Time Beef Share Subscription!

One of my fav simple & easy meals with the seasonal bounty of local carrots, celery, onions & new potatoes is Slow Cooker Pot Roast.

1. Thaw Chuck Roast & place in a 6-8 quart slow cooker
2. Add quartered or new potatoes, carrots, turnips, onions & celery
3. Add 3 cups or so of water or broth
4. Salt & pepper to taste
5. Cook on low for 8-10 hours or until meat falls off the bone and is tender.

I usually make a soup or stew from the leftovers by cutting the leftover meat & veggies into bite-size pieces, thickening the leftover broth with corn starch, and adding dumplings on top.  

PS ... you can trade out the chuck roast for brisket, shank, or short ribs.
