Mississippi Pot Roast
Crock pot beef roast is a main dish made by slow-cooking a cut of beef in a slow cooker. The crock pot, which cooks on low and consistent heat, allows the meat to cook slowly over several hours, resulting in a fork-tender and succulent roast. I’ve been making this recipe for years, and I can tell you, without a doubt, it turns out perfectly every single time.
I recommend using a chuck roast for this recipe. This cut of meat tends to have a good amount of marbling and connective tissues, which break down during the long cooking process, resulting in a tender and flavorful roast. You can also use a bottom-round roast or brisket.
While I think this is the best crock pot roast recipe, you can certainly get creative with the recipe. Here are a few ideas:

This recipe doesn’t require searing the meat before putting it into the slow cooker. There are some recipes like Crock Pot Chicken Thighs where searing helps render fat and seal in juices.
Using frozen meat in the slow cooker is not recommended. Thaw the beef in the fridge before cooking in the crock pot to ensure even cooking and prevent food safety risks.
If the beef is not tender, that means most likely that it has not cooked long enough. If at all possible, cook the roast on LOW so that it has time to get fall apart tender.
Slow Cooker Pot Roast
If needed, thicken the gravy with a slurry made with two tablespoons of flour and ¼ cup of cold water. Whisk the slurry into the drippings and bring it up to a simmer to thicken. Taste and adjust with salt and pepper.

I’ve been making slow cooker pot roast for as long as I can remember. But in the beginning, I was doing it all wrong.
The Best Easy Slow Cooker Pot Roast (made With Ranch, Brown Gravy & Italian Dressing Mix)
We’ve all had the super easy, lazy slow cooker roast that skips the browning, but once you try it browned you’ll never look back! Browing helps to seal in the moisture and creates the most delicious texture for a juicy pot roast.
Another mistake was using onion powder and garlic powder in place of the real thing. Those have their place, but not here. The fresh onion and garlic add so much flavor to a pot roast.
And have you ever tried crock pot roast with fresh herbs? It’s so much better than dried, so it’s worth the splurge. You can often even find them bundled together in a blended package to make this slow cooker pot roast recipe even easier.
Tender Pot Roast
Last but not least—the vegetables. I was always adding potatoes in cubes and using Russet potatoes. How does that turn out in the end? Potato soup! Instead, using a waxier potato (Yukons) and keeping the potatoes whole will help keep your potatoes moist, but not gluey. Cut them up at the end if you’d like, or just serve them whole.
Everyone will be too busy savoring each bite to care about the potato size details. This is the ultimate pot roast recipe! Simple ingredients yet layers of rich, satisfying flavor.
I prefer a thick gravy, so I always thicken the broth after cooking. I’ve tried several different methods for thickening, and I prefer the cornstarch route since you don’t have to add extra fat (butter for flour) and I prefer to thicken after cooking.
The Best Crockpot Pot Roast
If you try to thicken with flour or cornstarch from the beginning it doesn’t thicken properly and can leave a floury or cornstarch flavor behind. Here’s how you’ll thicken the gravy:
Only go for a bag of the thick baby carrots. You know what I mean. We’ve all seen those pencil thin worthless bags of baby carrots. Use the hearty thick ones (check the organic section, they aren’t much more expensive and they taste better).
I only recommend low heat cooking for the most tender results. I’ve tested with high heat cooking and it’s just not the same.
Crockpot Roast (with Carrots & Potatoes)
Slow cooker meals are especially good for busy days where you can get everything started early and have a delicious dinner ready for you at the end of the day. I like pot roast on cold and cozy Sundays through the fall and winter.
This slow cooker pot roast calls for a 3 lb chuck roast and should serve 6 people. Larger roasts can feed more people, as long as you have a large enough crock pot or roasting pan.
Really you don’t need anything else to go with this it’s such a hearty dish on it’s own, but if you’d like serve it with a side salad, some steamed asparagus for a nice green color, or some buttered homemade bread.

**I like to measure first to to see if I have the correct amount so I know if it will thicken properly, there should be 2 cups liquid, if you need more just stir in a little more beef broth to reach the correct amount.
