Now you definitely need a crock pot for this recipe. I have two favorite crock pots. One is the programmable 6 quart crock pot. It is awesome and very nice on the budget. I love that it will seal closed so you can transport it for parties and tailgates.

I also love my Ninja cooking system. It is pretty awesome because you can brown your ground beef or your chicken in the pot and then let is slow cook all day. That means one more less pan to cook for most recipes. This has become my new favorite crock pot just because of that one feature!

Also, since I tend to be a little lazy in the kitchen, I highly suggest using crock pot liners to make cleaning the crock pot a breeze! These are a lifesaver for our family! These will make this chuck roast crock pot recipe even easier. Make sure you leave a comment and let us know your favorite slow cooker to use.

Ingredients

• 2 to 3 lbs roast
• 1.5 lbs of any potatoes of your choice, cut into chunks (I used small baby yellow potatoes so there was not cutting)
• 4 carrots peeled and cut into chunks
• 1/2 onion cut into chunks
• 4 cups of beef stock or broth (one carton)
• 1 teaspoon of minced Garlic
• 1/2 teaspoon of Italian Seasoning
• 1/2 teaspoon of salt
• 1/2 teaspoon of pepper
• 1/4 cup of water (for the gravy)
• 2 tablespoons of cornstarch

How to make The Best Crock pot Roast Recipe:

1. First cut all your vegetables into large chunks. You want them to be bigger so they will not turn into mush.
2. Add your roast to the crock pot and then place the vegetables around the roast.
3. Add all your seasonings.
4. Next add in the beef stock.
5. Cover and cook on low for 8 hours or on high for 5 hours.
6. Shred the beef.
7. Now, time to make the gravy. In a small bowl whisk together the 1/4 cup of water and the cornstarch.
8. Remove 2 cups of the liquid from the crock pot and place in a sauce pan.
9. Whisk in the water and cornstarch mixture in with the beef juice.
10. Bring to a boil, stirring frequently for 3-5 minutes until it begins to thicken. It will thicken as it cools as well.
