Pot Roast !!!

Nothing is better than a classic and easy Pot Roast. Here is my recipe:


  1. Since I start this soon after waking up in the morning I obviously don't make myself a drink, but I would recommend a BIG cup of coffee.
  2. Once again since it is the morning I am going to skip the music, but I love watching Robin Meade Morning Express.
  3. Get out your preferred cut of meat. This can be a chuck roast or a rump roast. Place in the bottom of your crock pot.
  4. Cover your meat in one packet of Italian dressing seasoning and rub into meat.
  5. Pour enough water in the crock pot to almost cover your meat, leaving the top of your meat exposed.
  6. Slice up one half of a white onion and place around and on top of your meat.
  7. Put the lid on the crock pot and set to the low setting and leave for 3 hours.
  8. Sometimes the meat will absorb a lot of the water, if you notice that the water level has significantly dropped add more to return it to its original level.
  9. About two hours before meal time add baby carrots. I use about one cup.
  10. Also add your potatoes. I like to use a medley of baby potatoes (red, yellow and purple). Make sure the potatoes have been cleaned and cut into roughly 1 inch square portions. I add 1 1/2 to 2 cups of potatoes. Recover the crock pot.
  11. When read for meal time check to make sure the vegetables have been cooked and are tender.
  12. To serve: place meat and vegetables in a large casserole dish. Spoon the liquid from the crock pot on top to keep everything juicy and moist.
  13. Add salt and freshly ground black pepper and serve.
  14. Enjoy!
