Marie's Easy Slow Cooker Pot Roast
I am rating this based on following the basics of the recipe and using my own ingredients that my dad always used when he made pot roast in his dutch oven. I did not brown the roast, but I rubbed it with salt, pepper and garlic powder the night before and the next morning put it in the slow cooker on low with a chopped onion, crushed garlic cloves and bay leaves, topped with a mixture of one can of beef broth, a glass of red wine and a small can of tomato paste. Came home at lunch and added red potatoes, baby carrots and celery. After I got home from work I turned it on high for about an hour to make the vegetables nice and soft. All in all it probably cooked about 11 hours. I was able to make a nice gravy with the liquid by adding a bit of cornstarch and flour and heating up in the microwave. With the modifications I made this came out just like dad's recipe. Thanks.
