Slow Cooker Roast and Potatoes

Crockpot Roast and Potatoes

2-3 lb chuck roast, quartered
3-4 Russet potatoes, quartered
6 garlic cloves, peeled
1/2 cup diced onion (more or less)
Carrots, optional
1/3 cup Shirley J Dutch Oven and Slow Cooker Beef Seasoning
2 cups water

1.  Place roast in the bottom of the slow cooker.  Surround with the potatoes, carrots, onions, and garlic cloves.
2.  Whisk the beef seasoning with the water and then pour over the top of the roast and carrots.
3.  Cover and cook on LOW for 6-8 hours (depending on how quickly your slow cooker cooks), until roast is tender and falls apart easily. 
4.  Serve roast and potatoes with gravy.

Review:
What is the quintessential crockpot recipe?  I would say either roast or soup.  That is at least the most common thing people typically make in their slow cooker.  I’ve done many thing with roasts before but it’s been a while since I’ve done a roast with potatoes and gravy.  The Shirley J seasoning makes it easy and fast.  It’s perfectly seasoned to make a wonderful roast and a yummy gravy. 4 stars.
