Pot Roast Recipe

Well - the weather here in Oklahoma has finally started to cool off a little and the rain has arrived for the fall season.  What better meal to have than crock pot - pot roast?!  Because I was running low on food to take to work with me for lunch - I decided to start a roast before I went to bed in order for it to be ready to take to work with me in the morning.

Homemade Pot Roast



3 to 4 pound Roast Beef or Round Steak

Salt and Pepper

1 small Onion, chopped

1 package Brown Gravy Mix

1 cup Water

1/2 cup Ketchup

2 teaspoons Dijon Mustard

1/2 teaspoon Garlic Powder

Place roast in crock pot. Sprinkle meat with salt and pepper.  Combine remaining ingredients; pour over meat.  Add any veggies on top that you like - I added red new potatoes cut into quarters and baby carrots.  Then add water until everything is just covered. Cover and cook on low 8-10 hours.

When I woke up the aroma was beautiful and the meat litterally just fell apart with the touch of a fork- this is a great meal for any cool, wet afternoon or evening!
