Favorite Slow Cooker Pot Roast

Teresa Ambra


I love a good pot roast dinner. I make Favorite Slow Cooker Pot Roast regularly because it’s just so incredibly delicious. This favorite roast includes the traditional new potatoes and carrots. I also add onions, mushrooms and celery to round out the flavors. Add some of my special gravy and it’s comfort food extraordinaire!

John’s mother and step-father came to visit back in August 2019. I threw this entree together for them and they couldn’t get enough of it. This recipe is savory, smooth & so flavorful. All the extra veggies make a wonderful broth during cooking which adds exponentially to the taste of the gravy, IMHO.

I made this recipe up for our Friday night care group later that same month. I actually made two full crockpots of this stuff. Wow, did I ever get rave reviews that night. Everyone kept asking me how I made the gravy. What was my secret? I’ve always used Kitchen Bouquet seasoning.

My mom always used Kitchen Bouquet when making gravy. Like me, one of my sisters also has followed that tradition. It not only adds coloring to the gravy, it adds delicious seasoning. I served the roast with a fantastic Scalloped Corn with Bacon that everyone also enjoyed.

Favorite Slow Cooker Pot Roast is so delightful, you need to try it on your family this week. Seriously, no one can resist this delicious pot roast. If you have gluten intolerance, simply use a gluten free flour in place of the flour in the recipe. I do that frequently and it doesn’t take away from the taste at all.

I’m sure this wonderful pot roast entree will become a family favorite like it has with our family. Give it a try and you’ll see why.
