Crock-Pot Beef Roast
"I've put together a few different recipes to come up with something our family likes. Hope you enjoy it too!
*I usually cut my potatoes into eighths unless they are small potatoes.
*Using the crockpot on a low setting makes the meat so much more tender.
*I have a 6 quart crockpot, so I can fit a lot into it."

With a can of cream of mushroom soup do you still use a cup of water with the soup can directions. Or just the contents of the cream of mushroom soup. -
My crock pot beef roast id cooking right now on low. It's been cooking for about 4 hours. The cream of mushroom soup is staying on the top of the roast. Is that the way it is supposed to be or did I do something wrong? I didn't add any water to the condensed soup. Could that be a problem? -
I substituted for red potatoes, covered my roast in olive oil and then did a dry rub instead of onion soup mix. Also, I did mix the cream of mushrooms in a bowl with a little bit milk and the worcestershire sauce then dumped on the roast after it was ready going for about 20-30 minutes. Also, I did throw in butter at the bottom and then after I added the potates. -
On the slow cooker beef roast all the recipes I find are for 2 to 4 pounds but we were givgiven a 44 oz beef roast how do in cook it -
If the cream of mushroom soup doesnt sink in, do i just mix it with the rest of the juice at the end once I take everything out to make the gravy? My crock pot is smaller so everything is stacked more so than spread out

Super easy and delicious. We cooked on low for about 5 hours, didn't have time for 8 hours but it turned out perfect. Meat was tender, vegetables just right. [Side note: I don't understand reviewers who say they changed this, or that, or added four ingredients. Hmm, then you're not rating THIS RECIPE; post your own. Just sayin'.]

As a single male I must say that this simple recipe is delicious. Never fails to impress. My dates think I can actually cook. A+ -
Best combination of seasoning & sauces with the broth, Worcester, & soup the flavor is great. Best roast recipe I've used. -
I only use Golden Mushroom. I gives your juices (gravy) a darker tone and is delicious. -

I did substitute red potatoes skin on. Otherwise was spot on.

Great recipe! I have just a few time and hassle saving tweaks- I use a small bag of baby carrots and a small bag of tri colored creamer potatoes (no peeling or dicing required!) Also, I salt AND pepper the meat and add a couple of dashes of A1 for a boost of flavor. -
This recipe was amazing!! Very flavorful!! I substituted pork tenderloin instead of roast and used sweet potatoes instead of Russell potatoes and it was so so yummy. Cooked in slow cooker on high 4 hrs. Possibly could have been finished 3 1/2 hrs. My boyfriend loved it and we had leftovers twice. Will definitely do again. -
Used red potatoes

I made this yesterday. I made it for 2 hrs in a pressure cooker with all the ingredients except for the potatoes and carrots which I added 30 minutes prior to finishing. DELICIOUS!!!!!!
