Time 6h15m

Number Of Ingredients 21

3-4 lb. Chuck Roast (see notes for other cut options)
2 tablespoons flour
4 tablespoons olive oil
3 tablespoons cold water + 3 tablespoons corn starch (to thicken the gravy at the end)
2 teaspoons brown sugar
½ teaspoon black pepper
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon chili powder
1 teaspoon paprika
1 cup chicken broth
2 cups beef broth
1 cube beef bouillon (or 1 tsp better than bouillon)
1 ½ teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoons low sodium soy sauce (can sub Worcestershire)
2-3 drops Kitchen Bouquet browning and seasoning sauce (optional: gives it a darker color)
1 Tablespoon cold unsalted butter
2 ¼ lbs. baby potatoes (see notes)
2 lbs. whole carrots (cut into halves or thirds.)

Steps:

  • Pat roast completely dry. Combine seasoning ingredients and massage it onto all sides of the roast, followed by the flour.
  • Heat olive oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Once the oil is shiny and heated, add the roast and sear on each side for 2-3 minutes, until a brown crust has developed. Decrease heat slightly if needed during cooking. Remove from heat and set aside.
  • Whisk together the gravy ingredients and add some of it to the skillet that you used to sear the roast. Use a silicone spatula to "clean" the bottom and sides of the skillet, this will give the gravy more flavor. Transfer it to the slow cooker along with the remaining gravy, followed by the pot roast and any juices from the plate.
  • Cut the potatoes in half or thirds of equal size. (If 1-2 inch potatoes, you can leave them whole.)
  • Peel the carrots and slice them into halves or thirds. Very thick carrots can also be sliced in half lengthwise.
  • Arrange the potatoes around the roast and top with carrots. Place the lid securely on top and resist the temptation to open it during cooking as you'll lose a lot of heat.
  • Cook on high for 5-6 hours or on low for 8-10 hours.
  • Carefully remove the carrots, potatoes, and the roast and set on a serving platter. Tent with foil.

I was looking to make something different and found this packet of Grill Mates Mesquite Marinade in my cabinet. Threw it together in the crock pot with a cut up whole chicken and that was it. It turned out great.

This is one of my favorite crock pot recipes. Has a wonderful smokey flavor. Use a package of powder mesquite marinade - not a bottle of liquid marinade. Will try to post pic of marinade package.
